Modest Mouse = OOT

[Barrett's Last Privateer]

I've been listening to 'Building Nothing out of Something' a lot today, and have also been reading OOT a bit, and it struck me there are some quotes from that album which describe some recent threads on OOT.

First we have "1,100 miles is too far inside a car" from 'A Life of Artic Sounds' and How far have you driven in one shot?

Then we have "I didn't go to work for a month, I didn't leave my bed for 8 days straight. I haven't hung out with anyone, if I did I'd have nothing to say" from 'Whenever You Breathe Out, I Breathe In (Positive Negative)' and Apartment Survivor.

Finally, track 12 gives us "Other people's lives are more interesting coz they aint mine" from 'Other People's Lives'. So many choices, but why not run with the most recent Greatest thread ever?, applealing to the multitude of voyeristic reasons we all have to frequent OOT as much as we do.

I did think of searching through the album to find a quote I could apply to the most replied to thread in OOT, but as nothing jumped out at me, I thought that would defeat the point. Vote Forest.

Finally, I should note that I bought the album because of this thread. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find 'Lonesome Crowded West' in Sydney. I'll keep looking.
