There I was, aimless, at 2:30 in the afternoon, feeling the afternoon dragging on a little too much. I closed my eyes, opened them again. Alt tabbed between a few windows, trying to fool myself that I was working. I had tons of stuff to do and three messages waiting for an answer, but I couldn't decide what to do first. So I did what any reasonable person would do; I pulled out my secret weapon. Off goes the hip hop that I had on trying to broaden my tastes, and on goes some (excuse my french) fucking bangers. 30 seconds after I opened a browser tab only to blankly stare at it, I was literally banging my head, and with the renewed energy I was able to not only motivate myself to actually work, but also to work quickly and efficiently. Fuck you [colleague], I'll answer your question when I get time. BANG - Closed! Why do I have this database connection open from this morning? BANG - Closed! I can do this one in a second. BANG - leave it open, they might reply. But still.
You may be asking yourself, how much would such a silver bullet set you back. Well, today, ladies and gentleman, I'm here to inform you that it is available for the low low price of an unnamed future favor for Alastair. Ready to find out? It's Rise Against, and specifically Appeal To Reason. If that album doesn't get you concussed by the end of it, you simply aren't human. Also, this album has sentimental value to me, as it was on the mp3 player my brother Simon bought me when I was quite young, which I used to stay up listening to feeling very cool.
Anyway, that was my day. Please enjoy laughing at how much of my recently played isn't Rise Against.
Edit: The whole album is great, but try Re-Education (Through Labor) and Entertainment. (Hero of War for the feels)
Coding in the name of!
Gonna do what they told ya
