kids years worry
If you have a kid and you try irony out on them, they don't get it at 7, 8 years old. You can't really hide the Internet from kids. It worries me some particularly because I've done Disney and Pixar stuff.

It's funny; people get so doctrinaire about music. It should be the last thing you don't have an open mind about.

But you do stuff enough, you get better at it. Usually it's a simple thing like that. Essentially, a brainless endeavor.

They don't respect us, so let's surprise them, we'll drop the big one, pulverize them.
