Date: 2007-04-30 05:58 pm (UTC)We're sitting around the kitchen table and I hear, barely, a record playing real soft in the bedroom:
"What is that crap?" I ask, "The Smiths?"
"No, it's XTC," says Leslie.
"There's no real difference!" I say maliciously.
Patty looks at me and says, "There is a difference. The Smiths are Godlike and XTC sucks shit in the mud."
(I forget if John was there. It was his XTC record, and he might have said "No, XTC is fabulous." Or maybe I just made that up for the purposes of my example.)
