Say it like it is
The tycoons of social media have to stop pretending that they’re friendly nerd gods building a better world and admit they’re just tobacco farmers in T-shirts selling an addictive product to children. Because, let’s face it, checking your “likes” is the new smoking. — Bill Maher – 2017
Chicken dinners
Radiohead on OK Computer :
The band tried out OK material while opening for Alanis Morissette on her Jagged Little Pill tour in 1995: “My main memory of that tour,” said Jonny Greenwood, “is playing interminable hand-organ solos to an audience full of quietly despairing teenage girls.”
Yorke added, “We were well adept at playing to people that didn’t give a rat’s ass about us. I used to quite enjoy it. People are sitting down to their chicken dinners. We were trying to get them to choke on the bones.” — RS Mag
