Why iPod Edit?

iPod editing is necessary, becuase even those of us not brainwashed by high frequency signals in the form of Perrys and Gagas still slip up and may have some hip-hop or Devo tracks that just ruin a good random.

My goal with this blog is to clean up my iPod and have a random full of nothing but Nicholson approved hits. I'm always open to suggestions.

Comedy Isn't Funny When

Your strange co-worker over listens Adam Sandler’s Do It For Mama. Secondly, after you have listened to the first two Jerky Boys albums more than ten times. Hey, it was funny, just not after four albums, a movie, and Internet hijinks. Thirdly, when it is screwing up a sweet random, even if it is Cheech and Chong’s Let’s Make A Dope Deal.

For these reasons and more I have deleted most of the comedy from my iPod this week. The three above artists are all I actually had on there for comedy, because I had the sense to know that Bob and Doug McKenzie, or Andrew Dice Clay on the Downtown’s iPod. Unfortunately I did not, at the time, have the sense not to buy these titles. Bob and Doug was my doing, but I blame Kesh Cameron for the Dice. He told me it was hilarious, and then I heard a clip on an Ice Cube CD (another strike against rap) so I picked it up when I was sixteen. All this guy does is combine stereotypical Jewish words with potty humour.

Label Adam Sandler, Andrew Dice Clay, Cheech and Chong

For instance his joke about red headed guys with the punch line “Oh! He’s got a freckle on his schmeckle.

This is the advice I have for anybody loading up an iPod:

1.Do not put any comedy on it.

2.If you do limit it. There is nothing worse than getting three comedy tracks in the first ten songs or less of your random. In music terms I speak of course.


3.Only put comedy that you think other people want to hear. That is the only reason I ever put comedy on is to let people listen to some bits that I think are great.
