All this recent changing of usernames. Half the time I don’t who I’m talking to! (And, yeah, I know, pot kettle black, as I changed mine a long while back, but still…)
@Necko said you know you’re a hardcore Beatles Bibler when you can identify the former names of our shape shifters by their post count. That works for AD40 because of her massive number, but now there’s too many others with too many similar post counts to figure out the rest of them. I’ll throw one more in to support RN.
Actually, I don’t think I said that. I seem to remember someone else saying it, but I don’t remember who.
Or maybe I said it and then forgot I said it. What do I know?
You’re right, @Necko, it was trc–https://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/all-together-now-song/you-know-youre-a-hardcore-beatles-bibler-when/page-48/, post 956. It could have been you, however. Couldn’t it?
The following people thank georgiewood for this post:
NeckoI say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

There’s this girl in my dorm who likes to listen to music very loudly, and she also likes to listen to the same song on repeat for hours at a time. I have currently spent the past hour listening to “Umbrella” by Rihanna.I love that one! Reminds of a neighbor I had a long time ago, who just kept playing “Torn Between Two Lovers” (Mary MacGregor? I couldn’t remember who it was, had to google it) over and over and over. I’ll just say that she obviously had a reason why she got stuck on this particular song…
A friend from college went from America to travel around Europe. He began by settling in Copenhagen, intent on learning Danish and studying Kierkegaard (he thought he was going to become a philosopher, but it didn’t turn out that way…). While there, he roomed in a boarding house where his neighbor was a large, big-bosomed African-American girl who was studying singing in a show tunes genre, and every day she belted out the John Kander classic “NEW YORK, NEW YORK!!!!” — disturbing his attempts to study Danish philosophy… He thought, what are the odds, I go all the way to Denmark to study Danish philosophy, only to be rudely interrupted by a Broadway show tune…?

One of my most annoying pet peeves is when I say to someone “i am pansexual” and they go “ew so you like pans?” It’s even worse when I say “No it means attraction to all genders” and they go “ew so you like everyone? ew do you like f*****g dogs”arghhhh it’s annoying
If someone balks at you for being pansexual, you can retort, “Pot calling the pan black…”

I have a £25 Amazon.co.uk voucher and I’m not sure what to spend it on. I have 2 DVDs and a laptop case in my cart and that adds up to £18….so anyone know of any cool things for about or less than £7?

Oh Christ, the idea of somebody liking pans is hilarious.
Ah dear, I have no solution to your problem but I love the idea that people think pansexual means you like pans xD

Perhaps you could get a little Beatles keychain or another related trinket. Those are always nice to have on backpacks/purses /etc to show your Beatle-preciation!
Anyways, one of my pet peeves: loud/annoying/screaming children; especially when nobody does anything to stop the things!
Me and my mum went to get groceries earlier and there was this toddler who kept screeching their lungs out for the entire time we were there and the people with the kid didn’t do anything about it! People like that shouldn’t be allowed to have kids in the first place!

^ I’m thinking of getting a new Beatles’ cardholder, my old own is kind of falling apart. I’ll need it for uni next year more than now so I might as well get a nice one while I can.
Just thinking back: I don’t know why I posted this here in the Pet Peeves thread well to bring it back around:
I hate the delivery costs to Ireland from amazon.co.uk, I wish we’d get an Irish branch already 🙁

That reminds me of something that happened to me during my freshman year of college. My suitemate in the room next door was playing “Electric Feel” by MGMT really loud in his room. Then – for whatever reason that I never did find out – he had to leave his room abruptly. Unfortunately, it was set on repeat. He didn’t return to his room for another forty-five or fifty minutes, and I heard “Electric Feel” over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over…..
It was years before I could hear that song again without getting pissed (in the American sense, meaning irate). I never said anything to him, because we were good friends and I liked the guy.

You’d hate me in real life. I crack every joint in my body.
As for a peeve, I hate spitting. People who spit gross me out. I don’t even like doing it myself and avoid it as much as possible.

You’d hate me in real life… well, I don’t spit as a general thing, but after I’ve had a cold, I have no choice.
It ain’t fun though

Oh boy, you should see the people at my school who crack everywhere possible, including myself. People crack their knuckles, backs, toes, elbows, knees, you name it, they crack it! (most likely, not 100% positive).

^ Did you have to get up at that time or is it just your brain going like “hey mmm, get up, come on, you’ve got nothing better to do, get up!”- because I hate when both of those things happen.
I find that I work the best when I get up at around 9am.

That happens to me, even if I go to bed late so I accepted that I’m a morning person and learned to chill with it.
If you can't log in and can't use the forum go here and someone will help you out.

I had to get up at 1/2 7. Just woke up and that was it.
A couple of days ago I didnt have to get up at any time and woke at 1/2 6 in the morning.
