15 minutes (the 11th song on First Impressions of Earth) is in this playlist!

i made a playlist of songs that have a duration as a title

points of interest in this one:

i spent a frankly insane amount of time calculating how long “One Hundred Sleepless Nights” is, which culminated in using government data and an actual spreadsheet

“52 Weeks” < “365 Days” = “525,600 Minutes” < “1 Year”

“5 Years, 3 Months, 18 Days” followed by “5 Years, 4 Months, 3 Days” followed by “5 Years, 8 Months and 12 Days”

Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.

i think people should make more (accidental) references to the strokes tbh. if im completely honest <- totally doesn't have a ulterior motive for this (this is literally a strokes-themed gimmick blog)

opening a can of biscuits is like russian roulette to me but with 100000x the risk factor

[is-this-a-strokes-reference]

nikolai could refer to nikolai fraiture, bassist of the strokes (shown below)

btw feel free to tag me in things that might be a strokes reference :]

[is-this-a-strokes-reference]

NO :[[

A good gimmick blog adds something to a post. It's why those "I-give-people-x" blogs are annoying as hell, but "Identifying-cars-in-posts" is funny. Identifying a car by a few blurry pixels is humorous and impressive, and the audience gets to learn something.

Plus it can be a punchline. An image of two huge hairy men fucking on the hood of a car is not necessarily humorous, but knowing the exact make and model of the car upon which they fuck can add some character to the scene.

i link seemingly normal posts to the strokes and any of their solo work and side projects
