[Jeff Ross]

Since impressing y’all
Is what I am all about
Here goes my attempt:

(The lyrics are based on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNtJp_L5SCE)

“Adler’s in the house!”
My girlfriend broke up with me
Such a sad story

It’s so sad that I
Had writers work overtime
To write me this song

Pop song factory
Making money off my face
Doomed humanity!

Constant partying
My life’s now in a pop song
And I make it rhyme

So relatable
Is this song, you swoon; Itunes
Is where to buy it

Baby, Baby, Bae
Bee I can’t live without you
Just kidding: I can

Anyone else would
Probably do, but I need
To appear desp’rate

You are the culprit
Of this auto-tuned diddy
[Repeat chorus here:]

Constant partying
My life’s now in a pop song
And I make it rhyme

So relatable
Is this song, you swoon; Itunes
Is where to buy it

[The chorus once more
Followed by background music
And Adler dancing]

Time for some rapping!
Want some rapping? Yeah, you do!
Let’s ra-a-a-ap!

This random rap break
In the song, just like bubble
Wrap I pop out songs

Rhyming rules are lax
Because creativity
Is not our trube goal

We just want money!
More more money! More money!
Money! More money!

More Money! Money!
More more money! More money!
[Back to the chorus]

Constant partying
My life’s now in a pop song
And I make it rhyme

So relatable
Is this song, you cry; Don’t stream
It on Spotify

Spotify, no, no
No more spotify. [Close with
Light show and mic drop.]

(That concludes the song.)

So what do you think?
Perhaps I need a tune that’s
Suited for Haiku.

[Jeff Ross]

I like some of Mike Tompkins’ songs. Of course, Kye’s Music for the King is becoming one of my favorites to listen to. Otherwise I like Masøn’s choices so far.

[Jeff Ross]

You can like Jamie’s songs, just know that it’s “appeal”, not “a peel”. She doesn’t sing about bananas. 😀

[Jeff Ross]

Bonne nuit!

[Jeff Ross]

Gute Nacht! (German uses lots of capital letters, since every noun is capitalized.)

[Jeff Ross]

Is it possible
To write a haiku pop song?
Just a random thought.

[Jeff Ross]

Super

[Jeff Ross]

Though that may be trube, I’m sure Matthew has listened to the show before. 😉

[Jeff Ross]

Boy
(Just read through the Inner Tube Community and you can pinpoint my location within 100 miles, so I’m guessing you know it better than you think you do already, Josiah.)

[Jeff Ross]

The fifth one I found was an old Tim Hawkins parody:

[Jeff Ross]

The fourth one I found was a classic Jordan Taylor video entitled “Weird Things That Happen on Your Birthday”:

[Jeff Ross]

The third one I found was an edited message of our current President, back when he was just the host of a TV Show:

[Jeff Ross]

The second video I found was an old Kurt Hugo Schneider video in which his roommate made an impressive piano arrangement of the “Happy Birthday Song”:

[Jeff Ross]

I scoured YouTube for the best birthday videos I could find, and here is the first one. It’s the first video in a “choose your own adventure” style series by Adler Davidson, created for his seventeenth birthday (to play the game, you either have to click on the on-screen annotations or the links in the description, so you may need to look up “Birthday Adventure! (The Adler Show #7)” on YouTube to play it on a mobile device):

[Jeff Ross]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, REBEKAH!!!! You shouldn’t stress about being “the last few hours” of any age, because each new age brings its own optimism of “I wonder what cool things God has in store for me this year? :D” I know I surely enjoyed being 17 more than I enjoyed being 16, if that’s any encouragement to you.

[Jeff Ross]

I’m unsure if the last comment is random or connected to the previous two, but I am not a big fan of being stressed out either way.

[Jeff Ross]

Curtains

[Jeff Ross]

Quick clarification: I didn’t actually say I thought I was old, I just said “pardon me for not wanting to be old”, which (the desire to not be old) is something I have felt whenever someone has categorized me & my age accurately but in an older level than what I have categorized myself in my head. Under normal circumstances, I am fully aware of how young I still am right now.

And you’re right, Kristen, about what is reasonable considerations to be accurately considered “old”. I’ve heard it said that you know you’re old when your children turn 65. Until then, you’re not old yet. The guy who told me that a few years ago passed away this summer at the age of 94. All of his kids were 65 or older, and he had grandchildren and great-grandchildren as well. He was a great man, retired longer than I have been alive, yet he had the energy and wherewithal of someone two decades his junior for being a blessing to everyone he encountered. He knew what he was talking about.

So, for the record, we are all agreed that none of us presently on the Not-Forum is old. 😀

[Jeff Ross]

I’ll just leave this here..

[Jeff Ross]

Perplexity

[Jeff Ross]

(I don’t think your logic is convoluted, Dawn, but sometimes your communication and execution thereof could use a little improvement to increase the clarity for the idea’s beholders. Actually, this assessment applies to everyone, not just you.)

(Matthew Bird: “Or, you could just use the Clarification Station app and never misunderstand Dawn’s logic ever again.”)

(Sorry, Matthew, but I don’t think we have that kind of budget right now. Way to keep plugging the brand even when the story isn’t taking place. #SellOut)

(Matthew Bird: “Hey, there’s a reason it costs so much to use. They paid me extremely well to continually find opportunities to promote the brand. If you see how effective the app is [and are approached by the company with a large financial incentive to do this], you’d be promoting it non-stop as well.”)

(I don’t think so. Then again, I am tube tired right now to try to argue that point. I may be suffering from a little bit of sleep deprivation station.)

[Jeff Ross]

Pardon me for not wanting to be old, but in my head, 20-25 is early twenties, 26-27 is mid-twenties, and 28-29 is late twenties. I know that doesn’t make mathematical sense, but categorically speaking, anyone who is under 26 in the US can be on their parents’ health insurance, so I think that anyone under 26 must be in their early twenties.

When you get to be my age, Josiah, you won’t think of yourself as “mid-” anything. Everything is new, beginning, starting, early, so being called “mid-twenties” is a little bit unnerving for me. I guess I felt similarly the first time someone referred to me as “college help” at a job that I had started when I was fresh out of high school. Maybe you’re actually right in your assessment, Josiah, but I don’t have a “mid-twenties” mindset yet.

[Jeff Ross]

I believe so; I am under the impression that the only requirement is to have posted on the Not-Forum.

[Jeff Ross]

Then again, it might be easier to use the lyrics of Masøn’s parody, located here: https://auxcableshow.com/community/topic/aux-cable-the-musical/

[Jeff Ross]

I’m curious how this countdown is coming, since this thread started after Episode 18, and we’re up to at least Episode 36 now (depending on if you count the livestreams that haven’t been edited yet).

[Jeff Ross]

Confirmed, in accordance with my TOPHAT application materials.
