      In 2002, or maybe 2003, Neal Pollack sang a song at readings/concerts about wiping his ass with pages of JSF’s “Everything is Illuminated”. I saw NP do this at an Austin club a few nights before seeing JSF read at an Austin Jewish Community Center. Who’s the big winner? Me!!

      hilarious post– they do look alike, but if only JSF had some skillz like the YYYs, man, he’d be set. instead, he is a powervac on the cock of literature. we all have our place.

      […] I bet a lot of ladies have cheated on their man with Yeah Yeah Yeahs drummer Brian Chase [see also this]. Sex is about timing, being 3/4 the way there in 3/4 time (I tried 6/8 once and pulled a muscle). […]
