I do not like the new Justin Timberlake album
I do not like Justin Timberlake's new album. The beats do not make me want to dance my face off at times, and the lyrics do not remind me of my own painful or blissful memories of women I may have loved in the past. There is nothing about this album that is surprisingly quite good. I have not found any of the songs to be catchy, much less worth a second, third, fourth, or fifth listen since obtaining the album for a coworker a few days ago. I am certainly not reminded of much greater artists like Prince or much greater albums like The Beatles' "Rubber Soul", which is a far superior album about the trials & tribulations of a lifetime of freakin' girls. In spite of JT's history of association with bubble-gum teenybop mickey mouse club pop, I am not impressed by the intensity of his work. His egotistical, Ladies-man style boasting on tracks like "SexyBack", "Sexy Ladies/Let me talk to you", and "Damn Girl", is not excusable just because the songs are actually quite dope. "What Goes around" is certainly not a great tale of a typical, if hurtful cycle of relationships that in ways, hits home for me. The clubby sound of "My Love" is not awesome. It's just not. So please don't go around telling people that I like this album. Because it is clear that I don't. I would never like a Justin Timberlake album.

that's funny, cause you also don't like gay buttsecks. at all. i mean, you never talk about it, about how great they ass tastes or the way they burying your bean between two meaty man mounds makes you smile. You never give me the impression that you've never admitted a part of your life to yourself, or that you would really enjoy bathing in santorum.
kenny, please come to spud's race in DC this weekend. That is all.
I used to check Super Important each day.
Now, I check once a month, and it's still too often.
