80's songs sure do sound alike

Me: Hmmm, is this the song from The Breakfast Club or from Pretty in Pink?

Me: Breakfast Club, duh.

Me: Duh! But what is the song from Pretty in Pink? How does it go?

Me: But how can I forget you, girrrl? When there is always something there to remiiind meee?

Me: No, dummy, that's not it.

Me: Where is that song from? Is that from some other Molly Ringwald movie?

Me: No, dude. I think it's from The Wedding Singer or some other inauthentic 80's movie--

Me: Like Donnie Darko, but not Donnie Darko.

Me: The song from Donnie Darko is...um...

Me: Mad World?

Me: No, the other one......faaate, up agaaaaaaaainst your wiiiiiiiiillllll, through the thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick and thiiiiiiinnnnnnn...

Me: Oh, yeah!

Me: Duh.

Me: I always get those damn songs mixed up.

My new favorite blog

Is this Finnish girl's fashion blog, cleverly titled Only Shallow. She's the cutest girl ever, with a close resemblance to Maggie Gyllenhaal, and she writes in English. She has links to oodles and oodles of other blogs about street style and vintage fashion. This supports my belief that Scandinavians are the most stylish people on earth; they're experts at rocking cool tights.

It makes for a great distraction from the depressing economic news found everywhere else on the internet.
