I never liked Prince. To me, Purple Rain is as bad as a cover band playing Free Bird. I’m sorry. I’ve tried. It’s just so long and boring and terrible.

Prince haters can suck it. The man was astonishingly talented. And a sexy MF to boot.

D1 - I’m not saying he wasn’t talented. He played, what, like 17 instruments at his concerts? Amazing. Just don’t like the songs he played with them

Have you tried non Purple Rain songs? He’s got the funky stuff, the weepy ballads, hard rockers, saccharin pop. He’s got something for everyone.

Like his music, I don’t get the sex appeal at all.

What do you like OP?

Nor am I saying he wasn’t talented. He was super-talented. But the music was still... eh

Me too, P2.

I feel like my track record of saying "yes" to everything is coming back to bite me. I'm glad pp recognize me as a team player & know they can lean on me, but I'm now swamped with side projects w/ quick TATs, ON TOP of my reg work for clients. How do u say "I physically can't do all of this" without disappointing some1? Something's gotta give, at this point, as I'm burning weekend hrs to keep up. But I fear losing my rep as a hard worker.

One time I was SO wasted at my now exes family’s big xmas party... when it was over everyone went to bed or home, I had to pee so bad but I was too drunk to remember where the bathroom is so I opened a door and it had a small space inside and I just went in the dark

The next morning it turns out that someone peed in the closet inside of his mom’s purse where she had her now damaged passport and documents. She was furious and the family was shocked, I had no idea how to tell them so I didn’t...
