Blog Entry 25 of 44 Welcome to The Retroplex
I'm usually in full-blown reminisce mode anyway, so why not make the rest of you poor saps suffer along with me, right?

Here, you'll find no shortage (well...unless I can't think of any new material) of meaningless but ultimately harmless bits of ephemera covering the past 20 or so years of pop culture, and my occasional interactions with it. Whether you're into the iconic or the ironic, sooner or later, I'll probably get around to it.
Watch, as the hilarity ensues! Or, if you prefer, gawk like a shocked passerby witnessing a horrible accident!

This is all Ann Himel's fault

OK, kids - here's your meme for the weekend. Think of it as an internet version of MASH, or that little folded paper puppet-thing that only elementary school-aged girls know how to make.

At any rate, here are the rules:

1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Let the hilarity ensure! Or, barring that, commence with the mild amusement.

Welcome back, Jared! First of all, as a former elementary-aged school girl, I had no idea that foldy-thing had a name. So I've learned something new, although I don't think MASH is a good name - too icky. Now I must thank you for my next blog. I will play your silly little game, enjoy it, and confess I must use my son's vast collection of itune-type media for this venture. He is a minnie-me when it comes to music, so for the purposes of The Game, it will suffice. I love stuff like this Jared -- any chance I get to be an elementary-aged school girl again is okie-dokey with me! Thanks for a fun(ny) post! Let's hope lots of people play.
