Hip To Be Square

This is so geeky, but I find it absolutely awesome. Suddenly, in real life, not in Asgard or Middle Earth or Biff World, it is cool to be a super teched-out friggin' geek. It's like the Christians must have felt after the Romans would just go around all over the place chasing them out of rat-holes and chopping off their heads and then suddenly Constantine decided to make it the state religion and you had all the Christians standing around in burlap sacks and the praetorians were all embarrassed because they had just killed a bunch of them but the royal messenger showed up with the eagle crest of the emperor and told them to chill on the killing.

Huey Lewis used to scare the shit out of me when I was a kid. I don't know why. I think it's because my cousin Mike watched the music video for "Hip To Be Square" right before putting on a VHS of Aliens, which made me hide behind the couch and scream into a pillow.
