Listening to an album on shuffle is like reading the chapters of a book in a random order

it's like having sex with one of your parents while heiling hitler and watching dubs instead of subs

if I'm driving or working out it's usually on shuffle. if I'm listening to listen, albums are what I do.

I own Zaireeka and have played it and it really is weird how CD players actually don't play at the same speeds so if you just let the album run over time it goes farther and farther out of sync

| Wait, I thought of another way to screw it up, which is if you hit play and then accidentally kick over a big bucket of your own piss you've been saving for a couple of months and as you're flailing around you subscribe to a bunch of magazines you don't read | |

| In the liner notes, Wayne Coyne explicitly says not to do that, but he's not the boss of me | |
