Gold Soundz: A compendium of popular favorites from the annals of Falling and Laughing

Close Drawer

(1) A cappuccino, fuck it¹

(2) Somewhere nice (note total lack of mosquitos at)

(3) CONGRATU-WAFFLES

(4) I left this Swedish waffle segment for you. It is the happy opposite of pouring out some liquor for fallen comrades. You are my risen comrades, and I thank you all for helping me keep my shit together, and better yet, for keeping me on my PMA grind. SYRUPY HEART CONGRATU-WAFFLE YOU GUYS!

_{1. I am embarrassed at how badly I misquoted the poet earlier this morning. The actual lines are, of course}

_{I might even have me a cappuccino, fuck it
I’m goin’ somewhere nice with no mosquitos at [n-word redacted]}

_{You might wonder how I verified the lines. I verified them via listening to them over and over again this morning. You can too, in fact I highly recommend it, esp. if you are interested in feeling 7’ tall/undmurderable.}
