Ok.. I'm gonna gripe...
WHY is it that some folks put up their songs as 'theme' when the song is NOWHERE NEAR the current 'theme of the week'??
For example... the theme this last week was 'punk'. One fellow put up a COUNTRY song as 'theme'. :shock:
I think it's just an attempt to get more people to listen and that irks the heck outta me. Now, I might be called a hypocrite because I put up a song for 'punk' week that is more of a gothy-rock song, but to be honest I wasn't sure when I put it up because it's kinda similar to stuff Siouxie used to do (and that was punk... or at least, it was CALLED punk in those days, although I think her early stuff would have been more classified as 'goth' now).
However, that is kind of hair splitting... but a COUNTRY song??? How far from punk can you get??
ol That's kind of like putting up a 'Skinny Puppy' song for 'Gospel' week! :no: (well, unless your particular 'gospel' includes things like Skinny Puppy) OL I wouldn't think it unreasonable, for example, to submit certain 'blues' songs for 'country' (and vice versa), but holy smokes...
Oh well, just felt the need to rant I guess. This isn't the first time I've seen this done and it just irritates me. It's like when people put up an ad on Ebay and put ***LOOK!!!*** in the title, or WOW!!! grr
The person didn't get many listens anyway and I didn't listen just on principle. Maybe I'm just more irritable than usual.
, wait, better add 2 more because of inflation 
that new members probably just don't see the announcement at the top of the SS page that says "This week's theme is...." and so they don't exactly know what they're selecting when they hit the theme button for their song. Or maybe sometimes they just accidently click on that theme button thinking that they're selecting the other button...or maybe, and this is probably the more likely case, aliens from the planet THEMETHINGYWRONG which I believe scientists found in the solar system NOSUBTHISSONG may have beamed the impulse to mis-categorize the submission (which should not be confused with Miss Cat o' the Rye, NY who wasn't at all submissive, but I digress...which should not be confused with those who work in movie special effects for they seldom digress but ocassionally during the winter months have been known to dye grass)..............
...............But I think what I hate more then miscategorized theme subs is the term "Pet Peeve" - I mean, I use it all the time too, it's always "Pet Peeve this" and "Pet Peeve that"....yesterday at the supermarket I needed some change for a $10 and I asked the cashier, "Could you please pet peeve two fives for this 10?" And of course she replied "I'd be pet peeved happy to do that." But then she gave me the change in singles and that really pet peeved the hell out me as well as my pet cat "Peeved" who was with me that day.
. Okay, so maybe we are...but, come on, you gotta love us sometimes, don't cha? :drinklaugh:
And the best part is - now that gives me the theme song for Father's Day week, too! :oh yeah: )
(Mmmmmmm, just thinking about who was in this group - wow, that was a GREAT hug! LOL )
They are probably just in a rush.
