Yesterday, some guy (I’m guessing between the ages of 18 and 22) was waiting at the train station with the rest of us morning commuters. He had a set of earbuds on, which is not noteworthy in itself, and he was playing his music pretty loudly so many of us could hear it– again, nothing out of the ordinary.
What makes this worth mentioning is the fact that he was listening to “Hollaback Girl.” “Hollaback Girl,” dude. Nobody over the age of 16 should even be listening to that song, let alone blasting it in his earbuds loud enough for everyone else to hear it at seven in the morning.
I admit that I have my musical guilty pleasures, but I keep them to myself and I assure you none of them include the line, “This sh** is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S.”
Maybe I should have offered to download “Iron Man” to his music player.
