JnnyThndrs posted:Possibly, but it makes a lot more sense in the context of ‘blew out’. That song came out at the absolute height of the CB craze, everybody and their brother was cosplaying at being truckers. he's talking about breaking your sandals on the beach while burgin out and drinking a margarita where is the CB radio on the beach

Blew out my flip-flop Stepped on a pop top Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home. WTF does that have to do with CB radios?

As stupid as the comment is, flip-flop doesn’t even mean CB radio. It’s CB slang for return trip.

I used to work for a company that made expensive audio players. Sometimes we would get customer devices back for analysis when they were malfunctioning. Most of them were unexceptional but every once in a while you’d get one that was entirely filled with jimmy buffett songs. Hundreds of them. These people were listening to only jimmy buffett all day every day. That’s my story, thanks for reading.

People do the same for Phish. Or the Dead. Or Taylor Swift. If they are into it, more power to them.

He's just "cruising" around on foot, drunk on blended booze and near the beach. No vehicles involved. At most it would be some kind of water craft.

Across the country, hundreds of lakeside parrot themed bars are wailing into the dark, waving watered-down beers in the air and having boating accidents. For the Street Players, the set hasn't changed, but their hearts have.

I was at the gym today and I saw some boomers gather around the TV that plays CNN and they all had the exact same look on their faces that I haven't seen since a particular September day nearly 23 years ago. I didn't even need to look up to know what they were reacting to.

Don't want to water down the beer as the bathrooms already got a line of people that can't hold their piss.

I tried googling "Jimmy buffet scandal" and "controversy" to see if there was some dark past that I had overlooked, but came up empty . it seems the man was a clean and wholesome beach bum (and I'm glad of it)!

Like many people, Jimmy Buffett is inseparable from my father in my memory. I am sad that Jimmy is no longer out there making drinks, flying, and boating. One of the best to ever do it. Do yourself a favor and listen to some JB outside of the big 10

When they play Fins at the Dolphins game now it’s going to be a real bring down. As a tribute it’s time to bring back Landshark Lager Stadium.
