How much do I love computers? I've now listened to "Computer Love" by Lil Kim 31 times in a row, and I still laugh when she says "Three o'clock in the morning, we be online / Others send friend requests / But they get denied."
And how much do I love Layer Tennis? I love it because sometimes a match won't find its rhythm until halfway through, and then the players go full-throttle.
Let us analyze the elements here in what's clearly a terrific round: both rupturing and continuous, and with lots of moxie.
1. THE POURING OUT ONE FOR ONE'S DEAD FELLOWS
I mean, I am hoping beyond hopes I understand our conflicted tiger's intentions by upending that bottle of Italian fizzy water? Good for him for paying tribute to the dead.
2. THE WEARING OF SCARF THAT APPEARS TO FEATURE A SKULL MADE OF THE PIXELS
Insulating of oneself shows the intelligence. Wearing a muffler with a hipster-logo reference to computing is flipping ewok.
3. THE RETURN OF THE WOLFIE, NOW X-ED OUT IN HEES EYEZ
Take this one to THE CLUBS, girls. He's gonna put it on you.
So I'll conclude with the now-appropriate lyric: "Shawty up shawty down low / When yu gun' let me download?"
Sam, let us know.
