The lyrics are "Jeremy Spoke in class today". I had no idea, just assumed "Jeremy's Spoken" then Vedder-mumbles.

Yeah that song had an uncensored gently caress in it for like 20 years because nobody can understand Eddie Vedder.

I always thought it was "Jeremy's spoken classmates" which isn't too far off.

Yeah, you have to be fluent in Mumble, especially for early Pearl Jam. Vedder likes to elide across consonants a lot. Some of the songs I only know because I finally had to refer to the liner notes (back when that was still a thing)

I went to a private religious college and our groups had to take turns for morning prayer in the chapel. We snuck Jeremy in for that 'gently caress' - every kid would giggle knowing it was coming. Oh and by the way - they released the uncensored version of the video this week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS91knuzoOA

And the "gently caress" in Jeremy is especially swallowed even by those standards, he knew what he was doing

The banana flavor thing is a fun coincidence. Banana flavoring predates easy availability of bananas in North America by a decade or more. Some jerks decided to take the chemical that they used in Western Europe as pear flavoring (Isoamyl acetate), and send it to North America calling it banana. People wouldn't know better and banana flavored items would sell because they were a rare, exotic thing to most people. It turns out that bananas actually have quite a bit of isoamyl acetate compromising their flavor anyway. Gros Michel bananas have more than Cavendish so banana flavoring tastes more like them, but again just coincidence. Also the reason grape jelly doesn't taste like grapes as the video says is because it's made from concord grapes.

I know they aren't found in stores as easily as your standard red and green grapes, but growing up they were always my favorite and I looked forward to late summer/early fall when they could be had.

What always baffles me about evolution deniers is all the crap like this where we can prove humans made things evolve a certain way. I mean for fucks sake look at dogs. We went from wolves to pugs just by making certain ones bang.

We went from wolves to pugs just by making certain ones bang. As far as I remember they draw a distinction between a thing evolving slightly differently to what it used to be compared to a thing turning into a completely different thing. So a creationist might be okay with the concept of us turning wolves into dogs but not that cats and dogs share an ancestor. Obviously biologically there's no difference but that's how they justify that one.
