The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for August 02, 2012

Wonder what #1 is?

Oh come on now, the pillory would never be an eleven.

53, Stuck on an airliner next to a guy who whistles.

Exactly.

Perhaps that song that Celine Dion sang that did more damage to the Titanic than the iceburg.

Leave Grace Slick alone . It wasn’t her fault.

Snoop Lion thinks he is Bob Marley.Must be some good stuff he is smokin’.

You guys are why I read the comics here!

“Put them in the Iron Maiden.”“Excellent!”.-Bill and Ted

Wl, then, stay home. You don’t HAVE to come here, y’know.

1. Stuck on an airline next to a fat guy who farts!

I can think of a lot worse songs than We Built This City. Anything by Neil Young would qualify.

No. 1 is anything by Justin Bieber

“Best of Menudo”

I’m pretty sure that that thumbscrew isn’t how it was shaped.

Come on! Don’t pick on oldies; pick on current artists. They won’t even be remembered in 30 years. Besides, I rather like “We Built This City.”

That is torture.

Number 1 – PowerPoint. Somebody just reading their slides.

I don’t think that Starship is torture. Actually, I happen to like them.

#1: A Romney presidency.

HEY CARTOONIST !!!! WHAT’S WRONG WITH STARSHIP ???? THEM THAR’S FIGHTIN’ WORDS !!!!! LOL

That’s just wrong! :-D

“Have you seen the stars tonight?” THAT’S the real Starship.

Hey! Don’t be dissin’ the Starship until you listen to Blows Against The Empire. Their latter crap was crap but the early stuff was great. Dragonfly was also excellent.You want pain, listen to everything recorded since 1977.

Barry Manilow singing Mandy ad nausium ……

You ain’t kidding. How could something so sublime as Jefferson Starship devolve into…that.

And the Number One Torture:Mitt Romney as President of the United States!

I’m glad for a couple of the comments just above. I was beginning to think I was the only person who knew that Starship grew out of the ashes of Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna. And to those of us who know Airplane, that’s what makes ‘We Built This City’ so appalling. On it’s own, it a moderately catchy but forget-able pop/rock song If it were just some generic pop group, and it sounds like it’s just some generic pop group, it wouldn’t be worth comment. But it’s Jefferson Airplane, a group that defined the late 60’s and made some truly great music that so offends.

“You didn’t build that!”

Number 0 is two tickets to a Madona concert.
