Another Lyric Fragment Quiz

Michele's got a really tough lyric-fragment quiz. I figured I'd counter-program and go slightly easier. But I don't know how much easier.

Again, mostly one-hit wonders from the 80's and nineties, a couple of classic-rock tracks, one disco hit (just to mix it up), and an oldie. Couple of real gimmes tossed in to keep people from becoming completely frustrated.

1. "US inflation"

2. "put an arrow"

3. "take me bottom to top"

4. "elders of the gentle race"

5. "cold in the gutter"

6. "empty by definition"

7. "a trace of/hypocrisy"

8. "thick and juicy"

9. "wild-eyed boys"

10. "you could sex her"

11. "Dealin' in multiplication"

12. "this issue's gone"

13. "I just drove by"

14. "feedin' me soup"

15. "ass like John McEnroe"

16. "your price for flight" (CHANGED: Was "desperately pondered." Decided that was too obscure. The new lyric is for a new song entirely.)

17. "virginal brides"

18. "lost my light"

19. "your exclusive company" (HINT: Spoken word part.)

20. "act like an imbecile"

21. "shoot it in"

22. "great big world"

23. "subtle innuendoes" or "subtle innuendo"

24. "raw like sushi"

25. "little bit terrified"

26. "tuning in on you"

27. "eight by twelve four-bit"

28. "hating you for loving me"

29. "host of holy horrors"

30. "oatmeal lumpy"

everybody's right except on 9, "wild-eyed boys." I don't know the song Morpheus mentions. I got my "wild-eyed boys" from a different song-- and a much bigger one.

Come on Ace... 'Wild-Eyed Southern Boys' was big on MTV when it first started. (MTV, that is) There were three cuts off that album that were in heavy MTV rotation: Hold On Loosely, Caught Up In You, and Wild-Eyed Southern Boys...

I watched just a little MTV when I was a kid...

Posted by: morpheus on October 22, 2004 05:02 PM

Never heard it. I got it from The Boys Are Back in Town by Thin Lizzy, as Walt answered.

Oh, and by the way, I don't think that 'Lovefool' is too obscure. Of course, the Cardigans disappeared after that song, but still. They had a really tall bass player...

Posted by: morpheus on October 22, 2004 05:06 PM

They just keep coming to me...
25. Total Eclipsse of the Heart, Bonnie Tyler

Posted by: morpheus on October 22, 2004 05:09 PM

Oh, and by the way, I don't think that 'Lovefool' is too obscure.

The song isn't, but that particular lyric was pretty random. But there aren't many other lyrics in the song.

Posted by: ace on October 22, 2004 05:16 PM

Good catch on that one. I didn't think anyone could figure that one out.

In response to someone asking why the video tape doesn't show Tyler Robinson's face (PS, it does, but it's crappy video so it's blurry):

Candace Owens
@RealCandaceO

Because as I demonstrated on my show, there were MANY young men that all woke up and decided to dress in Maroon shirts and light shorts on the day of the Charlie's assassination.

The footage can be any one of these young men and in my opinion is likely multiple of them.

If Tyler Robinson's defense would like to contact me-- I'd be happy to supply them the folder of the maroon boys that I began archiving when I noticed the bizarre fashion trend.

I have thus far ID'd two of them, but will focus on IDing the rest of them when I am back on air.

I have maintained that the Feds had multiple decoy maroon boys on the ground that day. Without a clear image, they certainly cannot declare it is Tyler Robinson which is why all the Zionist influencers are hoping they can simply hypnotize the public into trusting blurry images and videos.

For such an "open and shut case" they have thus far provided ZERO evidence of anything outside of a criminal government conspiracy, the likes of which hasn't been seen since the JFK assassination.

@BlakeSNeff

BREAKING: Lance Twiggs says that Robinson admitted to him in-person on Sept. 11 that the message he had sent the night before (presumably, messages sent while he was trying to retrieve his rifle the night of Sept 10) was true. He says Robinson told him "He wishes he hadn't done it."

Fenix Ammunition
@FenixAmmunition

Photos of the ammunition recovered from Tyler Robinson.

Remington headstamp on the case and despite the somewhat low resolution on the photo you can see the somewhat blunted nature of the projectile's tip.

This is a Remington Cor-Lokt soft point round. It's SPECIFICALLY designed to deform, slow down, and prevent an exit wound. Available at literally every single gun store and sporting goods store that sells ammunition.

In fact, 16 out of the 17 .30-06 varieties manufactured by Remington use some type of expanding, deforming, or fragmenting bullet. Only ONE of their products uses a full metal jacket projectile that could/would be expected to leave an exit wound.

Here's a clip of them sitting in my desk.

This has been the most easily debunked claim of their entire web of lies and it's really mind blowing considering this is exactly what you would choose for an assassination.

But yeah, definitely keep getting all your information from the DEI hire and the Portland pizza boy. I'm sure they know more about this than I do.

Post here, showing Tyler Robinson's ammunition, matching this guy's own box. And it is an expanding-tip hollow-point round.

Boy these Internet Experts (TM) sure do get a lot of things wrong.

Lost 70s Mystery Click
And a song with another song as an intro, too:
Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch
There's something
Inside that we need so much
The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound
Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground
The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up
Thru tarmac, to the sun again
Boy do they look like absolute dorks.

Lost 70s Mystery Click

And come what may
Gonna dance the day away

She always smiled for the people she'd meet
On trouble and strife
She had another way of looking at life
