Bobby Explains... For all the people who have discovered me recently from the Never Get Ahead video currently posted on many blogs and on Youtube, here’s some facts you make be interested in: 

1.  The video is from an unrehearsed live appearance on Chic-a-go-go in 1997 or 1998 (ten years ago, shit!). Chic-a-go-go is a brilliant children’s dance show on cable access here in Chicago; it’s sort of like American Bandstand or Soul Train, but for little kids. Every week there is a random collection of kids and parents dancing to pre-recorded tracks and usually there is a special guest from the independant music scene. The guest can be local or touring acts, ranging from totally obscure noise bands to bigger acts. There is no budget and no rehearsal; they usually shoot two or three episodes in about two hours. The host is a punk rock rat puppet named Ratso and his lovely partner, currently Miss Mia Park. 

 2.  I was asked to do a tune, and as the song was Never Get Ahead, I re-cut the vocals to remove references to fellatio. It is a kids' show, after all. I recut the tune the night before and really didn’t have time to rehearse the lip sync. I figured my sync would be terrible, but didn’t care too much about fooling people into thinking it was live. 

 3.  The original version of the tune is on my album Bobby Conn, available through Atavistic/Truckstop Records.  I think it is on iTunes, Amazon, etc. It’s my first album; please buy a copy as I haven’t seen any royalties from those people for a long time.  There is also a live version on my album Live Classics, Vol. 1 released on Thrill Jockey Records. It is considerably more rocking than the original, which may or may not be an improvement. 

 4.  This video clip was voted Worst Video Ever in a VH1 contest and has been broadcast in the UK and Europe pretty consistently for the past ten years. 

5.  The video was shot at 10am on a Saturday morning; I was not “coked out of my brain” as many people have suggested. If my performance seems exaggerated, well, perhaps you need to enjoy life a bit more. 

6.  Micheal Jackson and motown are a huge inspiration for me, and I’m not embarassed to admit it. I’m not really ashamed of much, really. 

 7.  The woman in the blue dress is my friend Emily; you can see clips of her playing bass in another tune on YouTube, Passover. The woman in the plaid skirt is Monica BouBou; you can see her in most of my videos as she has played violin with me for over ten years and is my partner in crime. I can guarantee any dude that is interested in Emily or anyone else in the video that they are not interested a scumbag like you. Everyone else in the video, all the kids, etc, are just random people who showed up that day. Obviously, many of them were confused by my antics. 

8.  I am “for real.”  As in, I am a real person. Is my hair real in the video? Is that a measure of my integrity? These are all questions for you to think about, but frankly, I am amazed at how much people seem to care about these things. It’s a sign of progress that we have the time to debate such issues over the internet. I guess that means that the larger issues confronting humanity have been pretty much taken care of. Hallelujah! 

9.  I have noticed that Americans have a harder time with sarcasm and irony that other cultures. We find sarcasm threatening in some way. I, on the other hand, find the emphasis on the illusion of integrity to be more frightening. The lyrics to the song both celebrate and mock political songwriting. The concept of 'the man' is a juvenile simplification of oppression. But the impulse behind it is still valid. 

 10.  Finally, thanks for watching!  I am very proud of this video, as it captures almost everything I love in entertainment.  It is FUNNY, even ten years later!

#vitrificationonline #he finished the song and was like... ok so i think. um. this song is... then he pulled up the lyrics #confirming his suspicions #its never get ahead by bobby conn #(that's the song)

[hellativity]

losing my mind bc I SWEAR I heard a song from my discover weekly recently in a TV soundtrack but I cannot find it anywhere

#the song is Never Get Ahead by Bobby Conn if you can help...

[sergeifyodorov]

I’m curious because of how you rank Cale, who do you think are the top 10 players in the league? (We can exclude goalies because they’re such an entirely different skill set but would love to hear their separate ranking)

oooh ok this is. an inchresting question... under the cut bc dashclog Et Cetera.... the cody sergeifyodorov unoffishul players rankings at This Very Moment In Time. get mad at me if u want idk let's dance

number ten: sidney crosby. Old Man Still Has It, More At Ten

number nine: david pastrnak. arguably -- and i am going to argue it -- the best pure shooter in the league. the reason hes not like theee goalscorer of all time is bc he generally lacks puck carriers/space creators/isn't much of a puck carrier or a space creator of his own, but like. based off shot alone? hundredth percentile.

number eight: elias pettersson. two way centre... the usual vancouver oish% boost but also just a fantastic dual threat AND a legit lady byng candidate with a penalty differential big enough to severely boost his value just based off that. like imho there's nothing that petey is specifically Good At (like how pasta is a pure goalscorer) but he's basically got no weaknesses. and hes gay

number seven: cale makar IS very good. conn smythe norris etc but most importantly he did win a hockeyblr babygirl of the year award so theres that too. some crazy bobby orr pointgetter. real good defensive results too. like hes crazy good and they say hes crazy good for a reason

number six: ill concede. leon draisaitl

[GAP OF PRETTY SIGNIFICANT SIZE]

number five: quinn hughes. i don't know what fuckass magic this sad little man has. decent finisher. great playmaker. best power play quarterback in the league. makes anyone who plays with him appear to be "oh shit, this guy's a great partner for hughes!" (i have seen this with at least 5 diff players, not one of whom anyone would consider Quite Good on their own.) L + ratio + oish% + makar has devon toews + youngest captain in the league + you bet that conn smythe and norris combo is his soon enough

number four: nathan mackinnon. best dual threat in the league (no one who's a better passer than him is a better goalscorer, and no one who's a better goalscorer is a better passer.)

number three: nikita kucherov. i want you to do something for me. i want you to go to espn dot com. i want you to go to espn dot com slash nhl. i want you to go to espn dot com slash nhl slash team stats tampa bay lightning. it should be sorted by points for you. there's dearly beloved creepy eyes keeta right there in first. 94 points as of me writing this. crazy number for right now. wolfboy of all time brayden point should be in second. take a look for me rn at the difference between those two in points. what the fuck

number two: auston matthews. is this leafs bias? sure. im a leafs guy. im just saying that he's a better goalscorer than ovi in his prime, and he's a centre and great defensively too. i could tell you that he is fifth all time in goals per game, and two of the four guys ahead of him were born in the 1800s. i could tell you that he has 48 goals in 52 games right now, and 0 empty netters. i could tell you that if you only counted goals he scored when the leafs were down one or tied, he'd be in the top ten in goals this year.

[GAP OF PRETTY SIGNIFICANT SIZE]

number one: connor mcdavid. he has almost as many assists as the second-best in his draft class (mitchell) has points. he has 930 points in 620 games. he is the only player in the salary cap era to have a 150-point season. idk there's just fuckin . no one like him. like generally an untrained eye can't really see how much better or faster any given player is than the rest but like. you can with him. he just Looks a step ahead of the pack. top five all time, and he's in his prime rn!!!! lets go connie all my homies love connie

BUDDIE SNIPPET - The Dream

Ok so I've got so much stuff I've written that no one's seen yet, and this is a dream sequence I wrote for my slowburn canon dancer!Eddie fic that I just had to share. Rest of snippet under cut. Enjoy !

“Come back to bed, baby.” Shannon called, softly. She was wearing a pale nightgown, the kind with lace and satin that melted beneath your fingers. They were in Eddie’s bathroom in his LA home.

Eddie looked back at her, her soft features, her long brown hair. He was about to make a move to join her when the firehouse bell rang.

“I can’t, I have a call.” Eddie answered back, apologetically.

“Funny how we were never in sync. Whenever I wanted you to stay, you had to leave, and whenever I needed to leave, you wanted me to stay.” Shannon replied. There was no venom to her words, only tenderness. She smiled at him sadly.

“Will you be here when I come back?” Eddie asked, already knowing the answer.

Shannon walked towards him, placed a chaste kiss on his lips, and then softly whispered. “No.”

“Eddie, you’re on the ladder! Access the South East quadrant through the third floor balcony! We’ve got one injured male up here! Chim, Hen, you follow with medical! Let’s move, people!” Bobby’s voice rang from behind him. 

They were at a fire in an apartment building that looked oddly familiar.

“Where’s Buck?” Eddie asked.

“He’s already up there, waiting for you.” Bobby answered back.

“Better make it quick, smells like thunder!” Chim yelled from not too far away.

Eddie got to the ladder, hooked his cables and carabiners, and started climbing. He looked at his feet to make sure he didn’t miss one of the stairs beneath him. When he lifted his head up, Buck’s bed came into view. He was at the loft, climbing the stairs to Buck’s bedroom. He no longer had his turnouts on, instead he was wearing his military fatigues. 

“Buck?” He called. The bed was unmade, there was no sound apart from that of the shower running off in the distance. 

“Hey Eds, what are you doing here?” Buck came out of his en-suite bathroom, towel slung low on his hip as he’d just stepped out of the shower.

“Building’s on fire, we have to go.” Eddie answered too softly, he needed to be firmer but he just couldn’t bring himself to.

“I’ll be fine Eddie, don’t worry.” Buck said with a huff and a toothy grin. He moved closer to Eddie, his look shifting into something a little more sultry. “Besides, I’m already wet.” Buck’s voice dropped a couple of octaves.

The air changed suddenly. Buck’s face drew closer, and closer, until his lips hovered over Eddie’s. Eddie felt hot, burning in his cheeks as breath struggled to get past his lips. His eyes hooded, ears pink and lips wet, he moved to lean in right as he heard Hen’s voice echo right next to him.

“Found the source of ignition! Phew, boys you better put a lid on it otherwise you’ll bring the whole thing down!” Hen said with exhaustion yet still some traces of mirth to her voice.

Chim piped up next to her, turnouts covered in soot. “Seriously, guys, it’s burning my eyes.”

“They’re right, Evan. We can’t, we have to stop.” Eddie said yet he made no move to distance himself.

“Stop what?” Buck asked as their noses touched. “Aren’t you tired of doing the right thing?” He turned his head towards his bed, Eddie followed his gaze. There, laying on top of the covers, wearing barely anything, was Marisol. She had a wicked gleam in her eye, beckoning Eddie to join her.

“Well that surely put it out quick.” Chim quipped to Hen who gave him an approving nod.

“This is procedure, Buck. Army stuff, you wouldn’t get it.” Eddie said, his pained eyes never leaving Marisol.

“Hey, I was a navy SEAL for a day and a half, staff sergeant Diaz. Nothing in the books about this.” Buck said in his ear, a low chuckle escaping his throat. It sent shivers down Eddie’s spine.

“Oop, we’re back. Go get the hose, Chim!” Hen exclaimed.

Eddie could feel Buck’s breath hot on the shell of his ear, big, scalding hands reaching his sides. Buck’s lips connected with the nape of his neck, and Eddie’s eyes slipped shut as Buck’s hot tongue licked over his skin. Eddie let go, melting into Buck’s heat and his embrace.

“It’s too hot! We need to ventilate!” Chim yelled from a distant place, his voice drowned out by the feeling of Buck on Eddie’s body.

The fire alarm rang somewhere but it was muted too. It got louder and— 

Eddie opened his eyes. 

It was 5:30 AM. Time to get up, go for a run, shower, make breakfast, and wake Christopher up for school. And after the dream he just had, Eddie could sure use a run. 

What the hell was that?

[for-whom-the-bell-tolled]

Last night was so iconic.

Naz became the first Muslim EVER to win the Stanley Cup and then told everyone who saw him as a liability to kiss his ass (my personal favorite)

Nathan MacKinnon made it all of 5 seconds into his interview before declaring his love for Sidney Crosby and saying he’s “just happy to get his name engraved on the cup with his idol 87”

EJ and Nate rolled around on the ice hugging

EJ almost missed the group photo because he was giving an interview, said “oh! They’re taking the photo!” skated off, and dove onto the pile at the last second

It took less than thirty minutes for the cup to be dented when NAK dropped it skating towards the team for the photo. This is especially amazing because the season ended with someone from Philly breaking the cup.

Arugula Makar 🥬 won the Norris and the Conn Smythe the same year, joining only two players ever to accomplish that (Bobby Orr and Nicklas Lindstrom)

Nate had what was likely the first carb of his life when he drank out of the cup

Edit thanks to @peamupbubberstuff and Burky won his second cup! And I could actually feel good for him this time! (Penguins fan)

When I watch the world burn, all I think about is you

Author: @theleftboobgrabber

Words: 34.2k

Summary:

The world is ending and of course that's when Buck meets the man of his dream.

“Must be hard doing-” he stops, gesturing helplessly at the conn-pod, the Jaeger, the Shatterdome, the apocalyptic world beyond it, “all this with a kid at home.”

Diaz nods. “He’s in Texas with my abuela right now. It’s… yeah, it’s hard.” Buck can see his eyes go misty, before Diaz shakes his head and takes a deep breath. “But it’s better than a coastal city. I know why I’m fighting. I don’t want him to grow up like we did, on the brink of extinction.”

And okaaaay. Buck can definitely see why Bobby’s all over that guy.

(Buck, perhaps, JUST PERHAPS, wants to be all over that guy too. In ways that Bobby would neither encourage or approve)
