2. I was off to a late start today and took a nap until late in the evening.

I even missed the Homecoming football game in the afternoon. The good news is that after a 0-3 start this season Southwestern won Homecoming over a relatively tough competitor, Birmingham-Southern, 43-20. Fortunately, this game is on YouTube so I can watch it at my convenience. Pillage Pirates, pillage!

3. I'm waiting for the RW rethugs to start attacking her

Have at it idiots, it’ll only increase her success.

4. The MAGA man in my band says he "hates all of her songs".

Upon questioning, it turns out he has never heard any of her songs and could not name even one.

[TSExile]

5. That means...

...he just hates Taylor Swift because she is a strong, independent woman who got where she is due to a lot of hard work and is talented!! Everything MAGA hates.

7. You got it.

He said it would be a terrible insult for us to do one of her songs, and he wouldn't play on it.

9. Aaaaaand...

...also because she is blond and beautiful (and RICH!), she would never give any of those guys the time of day. Why would she want to?

[mwb970]

12. Actually, she would be polite and graceful to them. It's just who she is.

[TSExile]

13. Sorry, I meant to say...

...she would never give them the time of day when it comes to dating. She's too nice and positive to go out with hateful members of that ilk. Sorry I didn't phrase it very well.

[mwb970]

15. You are totally right.

6. My granddaughters are fans, think I'll join them! nt

8. You are in for a treat.

I have been exploring her music for months. Every song is amazing. This is why I liked listening to music in the first place. I'm 73.

10. My DU screen name...

...is in honor of the beautiful duet she did with Bon Iver.

[mwb970]

11. I love that one!

The way the vocals intertwine with the two sides talking past each other is beyond brilliant.

[TSExile]

14. Definitely one of her best.

Full stop.
