I'll bet "forcibly removed" deserves quotation marks.

I failed one of those tests before. It must be what black people feel like every day.

Damn you, Pete Shelley.
I like that analysis of Something's Gone Wrong Again. That fits perfectly for my day so far.
All trips we take where we get a rental car, part of the playlist is always about
7 hours/150 tunes of Buzzcocks mixed in - usually sung/screamed loudly by the
both of us while speeding down the highway.

to be fair, nobody ever has
Spiral Scratch is the **** but there's like two albums or something that have touched on the pop majesty of Singles Going Steady.
