I'm pleading the 5th to this list.... If I haven't done them - I've at least thought of most of them. :shock:

Me too.

Which is worse; to drive another block or two until the song is over or to park the car and just sit there until it's over?


I'm a car-parker. I think it's worse to keep driving, though.....

Too funny, Phen...I laughed out loud several times so I suppose that makes me guilty of several. Very clever! :lol: But, did you cover: When you hear SP's voice in the store & find the nearest ceiling speaker to stand under - just to make sure. ;)

There are a lot of "used to's" in there. That's for sure..

Fun stuff, just the same. Thanks and welcome, Phen. You're great!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was insanely bored at that time... So I thought I would list things that would make an even weirder Journey fan than me, and I think I've accomplished that. :P

To be honest, I have no idea how I know so much about Journey, I just seem to soak up rock trivia like a sponge.

OH GOOD GOD...!!!! :oops: :shock: :P

How about this one:

"Your Friends tell you that ALMOST EVERY TIME they turn on the radio, a JOURNEY song is on....and SOMEhow, it's YOUR fault!"

Yep...that's happened to me...more than once....

Hey. :x In my defense, I ONLY drove around the block (the long way) so it's not that bad. My logic is that it's more normal to drive and jam than to sit parked in from of my house and jam while the neighbors are going "What the blue fuck is wrong with her? She's just sitting there drumming on the steering wheel... hon, we need to move..."

I haven't counted how many of these actually apply to me (probably a hell of a lot, since I wrote the list....) but there is my personal number 85) that says it all....

85)You've just realised that half the ink in your brand-new pen is now gone after writing all of this.

God, I totally forgot 86 (that only applies to me, I think)....

86) You have done over 40 Journey songs on YouTube and you've truly realised how creepy you are for doing so.

Ha ha. Those are good and I must admit, some apply to me as well. :oops:

But, I must confess I don't think I own or EVER want to own a pillowcase with SP on it.
That seems a bit freakish to me although I have heard of some 40+ fan-atics who do own one.
Brrr. Scary thought........................... :shock:

Yeah, that one's just a tiny bit extreme, even for me. On the original list that I did on paper, there was a memo that said "If at least 1 of these apply to you, you are in the obsessive catagory."

You find yourself listening to a song by an Artist that's OK, but they mention a Journey song in their lyrics:

Fergie ~ "Clumsy"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=kN9vm95SocU

Chorus:

"Can't help it;
The Girl Can't Help It (OH NO!)

Can't help it;
The Girl Can't Help It (OH PLEASE!)

Can't help it;
The Girl Can't Help It (OH GOD!)

Can't help it....(wooo-ooh-ooh!)"

Yes. The other scan/dsd coordinator at work has the hip-hop station on all damn day, and they play that EVERY hour. If not more. And there's another hip-hop song that the opening is very similar to the DSB keys. Can't remember what that song is.
