This is a more light hearted MC but I was thinking about it earlier and thought I’d share!
When I was a kid my dad used to torture my ears on the drive to school with his terrible music. We came to an agreement that I was allowed to listen to 1 song per journey, no matter the genre or what my dad thought of it.
For a couple of weeks I got to enjoy a few minutes of bliss each day, but there had to be a way I could make it last longer… That’s when I discovered a band called NOFX, most of their songs are a couple of minutes long. Except for one, a song called The Decline that’s roughly 18 mins long!!
I was doing my best to hide my smile when I put it on, it took about 6 minutes before “how long is this damn song??”. When I said 18 minutes he immediately turned it off and said “I’m not listening to that crap for that long”. I had my song access revoked for about a month lol
When I was eventually allowed one song again, it was on a case by case basis, and definitely not anything longer than 6 minutes. It was kind of worth it just to see my dads reaction to an 18 minute punk song
