- And I just cant wait till the day when
you knock - It wont go any louder! I-
- On my door
- Turn it off!
Now every time I go for the mailbox
Cause I just cant wait
till you write me your-
Okay, buddy, uh,
I was just trying to cheer us up.
So, go ahead. Put on some old
sad bastard music. See if I care.
I dont wanna hear old sad bastard music,
Barry. I just want something that I can ignore.
Heres the thing:
I made that tape special for today.
My special Monday morning tape
for you, special!
Well, its f***ing Monday afternoon!
You should get out of bed earlier!
Come on, dude. Play it.
Dont you wanna hear whats next?
- Whats next?
- Play it.
Say it.
"Little Latin Loopy-Loo. "
- Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels?
- No!
- The Righteous Brothers.
- Well, never mind.
No, not never mind. You tell me right now
- whats wrong with the Righteous Brothers?
- Nothing. I- I just prefer
the other one. - Bullshit!
How can it be bullshit
to state a preference?
- Since when did this store become a fascist regime?
- Since you brought that bullshit tape in.
Oh, man, thats great. Thats the fun
thing about working in a record store.
You get to play crappy pap
you dont even wanna listen to.
I just- I thought this tape
was gonna be a f***in...
conversation stimulator, man.
I was gonna ask you for your top five records
to play on a Monday morning and all that...
and you just had to
f***in ruin it.
- Well do it next Monday.
- No! I wanna do it now!
I cant fire them. I hired these guys for three days
a week, and they just started showing up every day.
That was four years ago.
Number three on the top five
all-time breakup list?
Charlie Nicholson.
Sophomore year of college.
Whoo!
Am I glad thats over.
As soon as I saw her I realized she was
the kind of girl Id wanted to meet...
ever since I was old enough
to want to meet girls.
I mean, she was different.
She was dramatic
and she was exotic.
- The guy with the make-up and the tongue.
- Gene Simmons. - Gene Simmons. There.
And she talked a lot, and when she talked
she said remarkably interesting things...
about music, books, film and politics.
- Yeah, Chairman Mao. - And she talked a lot. -
Have you ever seen him less than 300 feet tall?
- No.
- Huh? No.
And you wont will you,
sweetheart? No.
Kiss my neck. Yeah.
And she liked me.
She liked me.
She liked me.
- Do you like that one?
- Yeah.
Its okay.
We went out for two years, and...
I never got comfortable.
Why would a girl- No, a woman
like Charlie go out with me?
I felt like a fraud. I felt like one of those people who
suddenly shave their heads and said theyd always been punks.
