Randy Randomguy's Rusty Refrigerator O' Randomness! Dept.

LEGACY FOAM-O-GRAPH© COURTESY SMUTSONIAN INSTITUTE® - How many Objects Of Appalling Significance do you recognise, readers?

Older readers,
which is you, may remember a regliar FoamFeature™ featuring Toxic Male Gazer Randy Randomguy? Or not. Anyway, Randy wants you to list your first ten, or whatever - first one or seven hundred and fifty-three would be jake because NOBODY CARES - songs on your listening device of choice set to shuffle.


Some of youse bums is too dumb to handle the technology, so you can join in the fun by listing the first ten songs you can remember. Or five, whatever. They don't have to be songs. First ten numbers from one to ten, anything. Just engage with the narrative here, okay?

Ed. [left - Ed.] sez: "Farq goes the extra mile to create wholesome content for you lousy freeloading bums, so the least you can do is help his internet initiative go viral by adding a comment, right? How hard can that be? I'M LOOKING AT YOU, FRANKIE FUCKNOSE!"

Well, no, the least you can do is nothing. You're good at that. But it will leave an aching void in your life; a sense of incompletion and underachievement that will cause you untold distress in the final moments of your life. "Oh noes!" you will croak, strapped to a gurney in a grimy service corridor of the Twilight Home as the Grim Reaper strides toward you, "I wish I'd joined in that random song list game on th' IoF©! NURSE! Is it too la- *kaffkaffkaff*" BONK.

Be a come-with guy. Cross the Rainbow Bridge with a light step.

Here's my top ten Rando songs as thrown up by Musicolet™ on a Samsung© entry-level device:

Dormant Love - The Shoes

See It Through - The Charlatans

Junkie Girl - Walter Becker

Ooh Mama Ooh - Moby Grape

Motherly Love - Frank Zappa

Heart Like An Open Book - Michael Franks

Born At The Right Tome - Paul Simon

If your comment doesn't immediately appear, it means Kreemé is checking the handwriting before passing it on to me. I'm a busy man and have no time to decipher crayoned scrawls.
