Always. ALWAYS Filter. May 24, 2007 11:47 PM   Subscribe

Matt, I have waited several hours for you to fix it, but the song parody you linked to in the Blue Sidebar is titled "Thou Shalt Always Filter", not "Thou Shalt Not Filter". And it is totally awesome... When I say “end” thou shalt not say “well”. When I say “Wen” thou shalt not say “dell”.

...which makes it even more shocking
(1) because I'm surprised Matt allows anybody else to post to the sidebar (and can't you fix it even if HE did it wrong?)
(2) that the Beloved Cortex, the MeFi Music Master, should get somebody else's song title screwed up. It's like Bono calling the Black Eyed Peas song "My Bumps" - or maybe not.

Speaking of Music... do you still plan to go ahead with the 'monthly theme' idea?

Remind me never to rob a bank with mathowie. He'll have given it up to the Feds well before they get into the good cop/bad cop routine. Whatever happened to admin omerta?

Yeah, it's easy to tell that Cortex wrote that. Matt doesn't try that hard.

Oh shit! Fixed.

In my defense, you have to admit that the "thou shalt not" template is pretty heavily stamped into the mind of anyone with a Judeochristian upbringing. And there were a lot of links to worry about in that writeup. And I was busy. And there was this goat.

Stop Snitchin'.

I'm suspecting it was this goat.

Anyway, cortie, we're all expecting a three-minute-twenty-second mp3 performance of "Quonsar's Song" above in MeFi Music by the end of the holiday weekend, or else YOU are going to be the subject of Keith Olbermann's next "Special Comment". And you know it will not wendell.
