To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

What did you do? Did your brain explode after reading about the rioters who identified themselves?

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8That just lowered my IQ 50 points. I just played tennis, and I am completely dead. At least I won.

This one shocked even me.

At the mall today, I saw nine people wearing this shirt.

Three others wearing the same shirt in assorted colors (2 gray and one purple, if anyone cares for specifics ;D).

Two wearing shirts with Beatles album covers.

Two wearing Lennon shirts.

And I was wearing my Abbey Road top. Add it up… 17 Beatles shirts at the mall today!:D I was very excited.

And in her eyes, you see nothing. No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one. A love that should have lasted years.

Ooh, I just remembered one from a while back! When I went to Japan on a school trip, me and my friend (who is only slightly less of a Beatlemaniac than I) were continually on the lookout for Beatles related things, in the hopes of making a photo album of the things we found… In the end we were quite surprised at how much there was – from people wearing t-shirts to store names and even brands of soft drinks! At the end of the trip, in Tokyo, we even managed to, uh, break into Budokan, which was an experience… Our album was pretty full in the end! a-hard-days-night-john-6

Just last monday as i finished my music class when i was on the way home, the first song playing on the Radio was “I should have known better”a-hard-days-night-john-5.

Also,some weeks ago the same happened with Love Me Do . It's great, and a coincidence here is that both songs feature harmonica which i have been playing for a while now.

John, Paul, George and Ringo= The Beatles

And i buried Tulio!

Today was one of my friend's birthday. So while my other friend and I were aimlessly walking around Walgreens in attempt to escape the heat before surprising my friend for her birthday, we walked through the card section. And as we were walking and talking, I saw a card with the Beatles on it and on the cover it said “I hear it's your birthday?” So I turn to my friend and say “Can I switch birthdays? Buy this for me!”

Her response: “In a couple months. I already bought you a magnet from London with them crossing Abbey Road .”

My face: a-hard-days-night-ringo-6

 

My friends love me too much. Wish I bought the card for myself though…

Well we all shine on like the moon, the stars, and the sun.

So, I was setting tables at work today and Rollover Beethoven started playing on the radio. That was awesome, of course, but then some crappy cover of a Tom Petty song came on, so I changed the station. Then Imagine came on, which I thought was kind of a cool coincidence, and then another crappy song, so I changed the station again. Then Silly Love Songs started playing, which was just awesome, and then I changed the station again and My Sweet Lord came on! And then I changed the station and…. Nope. No Ringo song. 🙁 But still, 3 out of 4 Beatles agree that it was an awesome Beatley moment.

The other day I was sitting in a car that somebody was driving(not me) and then I Am The Walrus comes on the radio, only then my cousin changed the station becuase I guess she didn't really like the beginning of it but then she put it back becuase then my aunt said how it was a Beatles song.

For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder

Desmond Jones, you weren’t insulting Tom Petty, were you? Because if you were, we have a problem.

I saw this and I was like.. “Why do this looks familiar??” a-hard-days-night-paul-2a-hard-days-night-john-7a-hard-days-night-ringo-12a-hard-days-night-george-4

 

Wikipedia sayssss:

“The vultures bearing a physical and vocal resemblance to The Beatles was a result of the band nearly singing songs for the movie and voicing the vultures themselves. Manager Brian Epstein (who died from an accidental drug overdose less than two months before the film's release) had approached Disney about having the band appearing in the movie without asking the band first. Once Epstein informed John Lennon about it, he immediately vetoed it and told Epstein to go tell Disney to look for Elvis Presley instead.[4] Nonetheless, the vultures still appeared like the band, including with the signature mop-top haircut.”

Anyway, Beatley moment: There’s an episode of Family Guy where Brian publishes a book that becomes a hit and the fame goes to his head. There’s a quote that’s something like, “At first I was mad when John Lennon said the whole ‘Beatles bigger than Jesus’ thing, but NOW, it’s like, I get it.”

I am aware of an episode of Family Guy where the dog or the baby calls something “worse than Ringo’s songs”. There’s a manatee gag where “Ringo” informs the others that he’s written a song. Paul says that it is great and sticks the song up on the fridge.
Generally speaking, the Beatles references in the Simpsons are better. They had a whole episode parodying the Beatles. Highlights include the experimental piece produced by Barney when he meets a Japanese woman:

 

… a rooftop concert shut down by the police, and George. Twice.

George: Hello, Homer, I’m George Harrison .
Homer: Oh my God ! Where did you get that brownie? 

 First of all, kudos on calling it a “manatee gag.” a-hard-days-night-ringo-15 Secondly, although I prefer Family Guy as a whole, and I liked a couple of their Beatles gags, that whole Simpsons episode is just SUCH a classic.

I think it's great you're going through a phase,

and I'm awfully glad it'll all be over in a couple

of days

No, I was not. It was a very bad cover of a Tom Petty song. All Tom Petty songs are amazing, of course, but the guy singing this one was just killing it. It was like a cat screeching in agony while a crying baby drags its fingernails down a chalkboard.
