I hit a snag on the last job, because the bathroom was right next to the customers office. She was in there all day with the door open and I just didn't feel comfortable taking a dump under those circumstances.

The current job is back to business as usual. I used their bathroom yesterday

this was literally the primary theme of the last two albums.
i just want them to stop trying to be a kewl rawk band.. it feels like they're trying too hard and it doesn't feel genuine to me
Nothing on Gigaton is trying too hard.

"Trying too hard" is a stupid notion.

They were trying too hard by putting out a video they weren't capable of making high quality. Spread themselves too thin.

Eddie Vedder was definitely cool in the 90s, its only in the 2000s when he became the rocker dad guy that he became less cool but I still love him anyway
