Ok, now you guys are just being dicks. Image

I don't know what "taken aback" means, but I was surprised when I saw this title. :P

The main page says this fight is due Tuesday, 11/14/14. However, November 14th is not a Tuesday, but a Friday. Could you fix that?

I probably won't have time (again), but if I did, I might use this old classic:

I tried, but no matter what I do, November 14 is still a Friday. Sorry, man.

I'm in it to win it!

Or come 2nd.

Or to achieve a modest number of votes.

It's not the winning, it's the taking part.

Alright, it's not the taking part....it's the sense of futile despair.

Meh. It's cheaper than therapy.
Unless you buy gear. Then it might not be.

I wonder if anyone did a Frankenstein/ grave robbing song. I thought about it for five minutes.

I look forward to seeing the cover.
No mumblings. No postings. No review thread.
I'm shocked. Only one? Of course that's YOU only have one horse in the race. No telling how many songs other BSS-associated folk have submitted.
