	minusblindfold...."and play out my stupid, misguided version of fun"...

No Picture C. Average	#3 by C. W. at Apr 20, 1986 at 10:36 PM EST
	This song doesn't seem like it's about having fun at all. To me it seems sad. Like the stupid empty things we do to fill time in our life. It's blatantly about wasting away. Let's face it though, we all spend most of our time doing nothing.

No Picture Solstice Rhythm Player	#4 by Solstice Statton at Dec 19, 1987 at 10:33 AM EST
	It's weird how this song is about getting wasted and fucked up, and I can still relate to it even though I'm straight edge. I know what it feels like to waste your life away, whether it's to alcohol or just boredom. The Lawrence Arms capture that better than any band I've ever heard.

No Picture Fieldy Average	#5 by Fieldy at Jun 29, 1999 at 9:42 PM EST
	Brendan once said in an Interview that this it was after he wrote this song when he decided to start a band again... the rest is history ;)
