Agreed.

I got one of those texts asking me to stop Trump 2020 and vote for Bernie.

A guy named "Kyle."

I responded I don't throw in with socialists.

You should have sexually harassed Kyle. Thats what I do to anyone who texts me.

Trouble Loves Me was on Maladjusted (1997).
 
Yeah I just dropped that one in the see if anyone was paying attention ;)
Same with The Edges Are No Longer Parallel, I suppose?
 
Oh shit, I'll re-do it...:rolleyes:
Written in '97 but I think it only appeared on BD 2010, so that's where I've gone wrong.

It was a B-side to Roy's Keen, actually.
 
I bow to your superior knowledge...I've edited & updated my 20.

Ah, well... I don't know if "superior" knowledge is the right expression, I just tend to be an insufferable smart ass.
Anyway, nice compilation!
