Winners!!

You have died of dysentery. Now bugger off!

We'll put it all together now: Consider how often I have stumbled. Spirits guide me, with more profound voices calling. The bond that heaven forged between you and me is indelible. I have traversed the globe. I have journeyed around the world in search of that remarkable woman, who understands that ...

That's the key, but I'll get you more...

I'll feed you, baby bird:

9 to 5! 9 to 5! Is that it? I think it is!

It was the cup of... Ahem, enthusiasm that threw me off. I thought for sure it was something dirty. I've been stewing on this one all day.

Damn, son! That's gotta be exactly what it is. I'm impressed. I was lost.

Select it, pack it, ignite the herb, join me, and partake in a draw from the water pipe. Set the cigar aside momentarily; allow me to clarify, this method is not novel. Inhale deeply, then exhale slowly. I have recently acquired an ounce via mail delivery. While I appreciate a cigar or a generously...

A-Ha, Take on Me! That's fantastic, Tahlvin! I was stumped, but I translated "say it anyway" from the third line. And I knew I had it, but all I could hear was that line. I couldn't feel any words around it. After I finally distracted myself with something else, the whole song just started...

Yes! 100%! Go Kyle!

I actually intended to search for Hits from the Bong, but I forgot that these aren't the same song.

You know this song. This is the third verse. I picked this verse because I realized I didn't recognized the lyrics in the first two. I mean, like, I recognized the sounds and rhythms, but figured out I had never known what the words were. I'll give you the chorus: A deviation of the mind, A state of...

You're 40% of the way there!

Sure, I'll meet with the king of Zamunda.

As if written by the bard himself... Similar to the legendary Louis Armstrong, who masterfully played the trumpet, I shall indulge in a moment of leisure with a bong, offering you a taste of something exquisite. It is imperative that I secure my reputation and belongings swiftly, for law enforcement...

Affection resembles an explosive, my dear; do indulge in its allure, living akin to an ardent admirer equipped with communication apparatus. Appearing somewhat disheveled, akin to a cinematic seductress or a formidable force of destruction, might I humbly inquire: may I earn the honor of being your...

Sorry... it's Walk Like an Egyptian, the Bangles.

I read this several times and nothing jumped out at me. Genuinely puzzled. Somehow, actually translating the words wasn't my first (or even fourth) approach to solving it, but I finally decided to break it down: "Venerable artworks? What, like old paintings..." SNAP! There it was! It doesn...

The Biden administration is continuing to take carefully small steps in the right direction while also trying to continue assisting Israel. At the same time, Lindsey Graham said the following, out loud in front of cameras, on NBC news: When we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harb...

Hell yeah!

Someone else's turn.

I think we cross-posted. Indeed we did. Purple Rain. You Gotta Fight for Your Right to Party. That's one's beautiful. You wake up late for school, man you don't want to go You ask you mom, please? but she still says, no You missed two classes, and no homework But your teacher preaches class like yo...

Indeed! Points for Tahlvin!

On the auspicious occasion of your birth, celestial beings convened to fashion a vision of perfection. With delicate care, they adorned your locks of gold with lunar powder and bestowed upon your azure orbs the radiance of twinkling stars.

Yeah, give it away is obvious.

The second one is Faith by George Michael. Lovely!

And no, you weren't cheating.

Back to the wall? I'm torn on this. My gut says get the good view of the place, but I also see the value of having a quick exit. It's like a DM who's never asked about marching order before suddenly needing to know everyone's exact positioning.

I say we go. Either a magic premonition is showing us the path to our true destiny, OR the jewels are manipulating us so that they can return to their rightful owner after which we will be cast aside (possibly in deadly fashion) once we are no longer useful.

Either way, I'm down for it.

This is easily my favorite so far. It might be too hard, but one more line would give up the game: Presently, in the thoroughfare, one observes discord, and a considerable amount of labor to be undertaken. Alas, there lacks a suitable venue for our laundering pursuits, and I cannot attribute all inc...

And sometimes the poetry is so good that Proper English Gentleman makes nary a dent: In the comfort of his abode, he indulges in sketching scenes of towering peaks, where he envisions himself atop, basking in the glow of a lemon-yellow sun, arms outstretched in a triumphant V. Below, lifeless forms ...

Short People -- Randy Newman

Right from the first sentence, that's an absolute classic!

Observing my own visage, when abruptly it undergoes a tumultuous transformation (oh dear). There exists no recourse at this juncture. You have stirred the infernal spirit within me. Rise, I implore you, descend into the grip of ailment.

No, but I added the opening lines which I originally skipped, and it altered the remainder slightly: Might you perceive the sensation? Oh dear, alas! Submerged within the depths of my profound disdain, as a fractured servant, I humbly prostrate myself. (Would you succumb to my bidding?) It appears t...

Torn by Natalie Imbruglia?

No, but that is a fabulous guess.

And I don't know if Meta AI does this, but I tried the same thing with ChatGPT, and it even reframed my request as part of its reply: Allow me to articulate those verses in a manner befitting a proper English gentleman: "In the depths of my despair, as a shattered servant, I humbly kneel. (May ...

Lose Yourself -- Eminem

Wind Beneath My Wings -- Bette Midler

I see where this is going: Peter? And Lucy? P and L? Peginald Lesmit? Aha! My old nemesis is at it again. But we'll head him off at the pass. To the plane!

I blame everyone but myself.

I'll let someone else play, but I'm loving this!

Here Comes the Rain Again -- The Eurythmics

?

Oh, I'm with you now. He's a prick

Not the lasagna! Why didn't anyone stop this?!

I don't know what macro means here. I mean, I'm gathering from context that this is nutrition related... macro-nutrients?... macro-biotics? Either way, it's too much for me right now. I'm just happy when I feel like my portions aren't out of control.

Fine. Let's make amends.

Nermal: I have a gland condition.

Garfield: So sorry to hear that you can't stay longer.

I'm trusting you on this one. My gut says play it safe, but I certainly don't want to invite the BBEG in on our plans.

Go it alone!

I think Eli might have it, but I'll try:

They came with the house. I keep forgetting to call animal control.

I remember "I'll turn the heat up", but I didn't remember the first bit, so I kept changing it.

According to the Israeli person who acted as the representative of the hostages in negotiations, Hamas offered a deal to release ALL civilian hostages as early as October 9 or 10 in exchange for the IDF not entering Gaza, which lines up with reporting of Palestinian journalists at the time.

Last Wednesday, the protesters and the authorities had different accounts of what happened, and it turned out the protesters were much more accurate. I imagine the same will be true in this instance.

That's part of it for me. I'm a middle-aged white guy who likes rap. I recognize most of the names involved, and Im familiar with their music. But I'm not immersed in it. I'm listening to Black creators and musicians breaking it all down for me and explaining references and such, and it feels like r...
