Lightning strike!!! I hope someone will explain the turtle sandbox one. How about name ONE song?! That seems enough of a challenge Excellent influencer.
@Dave - I wear, or at least buy, a rock band's t-shirt (or poster or other merch) because I listen to them on Spotify, and that doesn't pay the rent. Yes, I could buy the CD and throw it in a drawer, but that seems silly. I don't feel that obligation to old bands where I bought them on vinyl and CD and helped make them rich.
The quiz made me realize that I might come up short on St. Paul and the Broken Bones. So many of the song titles are disconnected from the lyrical hooks. Worse, I'm the kind of person who doesn't listen to the lyrics until I've heard the song a couple times.
That lightning strike is from last year, or the year before. (Yes, I've seen it many times. Don't mess around with lightning). I do like that the influencer ones all use the same script.
I love pressing people to name songs from the bands on the shirts they are wearing. I rarely if ever wear a shirt that isn't blank, but my son has some shirts that would fit the bill. At 15 I'm happy he would pass this test.
#4, since it confirmed for me my prejudices about people who advertise on their clothing the bands of music they listen to: yet another category of people I'd probably not let vote in general elections.
3 songs on your shirt guy is lucky he didn't get punched in the face. Very annoying guy. He should have been at the train station on Saturday. It's the same building as the Boston Garden and it gets crazy when there's a big playoff or concert. Hundreds of women of about my age or older in New Kids on the Block t-shirts. Some of them had kids in those shirts. If you have a shirt that says "NKOTB Vintage Groupie" keep it in the closet. It may give people the wrong idea (or the right idea) about you.
I can sing songs with all the lyrics but I can never remember their titles. I'm guessing the folks who couldn't name three songs actually have more than a passing familiarity with the music they're honoring on their t-shirts.
If you gatekeep someone's shirt you are an asshole. People treat assholes like assholes and don't give them a straight answer. Unfortunately in this guy's case that feeds his assholedom.
The quiz made me realize that I might come up short on St. Paul and the Broken Bones.
I'd be wearing the t-shirt because I saw them in concert (2014), but I'd probably draw a blank after "Call Me".
I don't remember song titles as well now as I did when I bought albums. I was a lot younger then - so possibly better memory, but I also looked at the album cover while I listened. Now I create a playlist and never look at the title again.
I liked the Sublime (who I never did see) t-shirt, but I'd also not be able to name more than one song. I like the design more than I like their music.
The Led Zeppelin guy disappointed me, who got a wrong answer from his wife. So did The Rolling Stones lady, who didn't even answer, her boyfriend did. Why answer for someone when you don't know the answer?

Excellent influencer.
"I hope someone will explain the turtle sandbox one."
Check out the series: #hetheyoftheday
I think that's the best way to arrive at an understanding if the humor of it doesn't reach you on the first one
Here is a video where he tries to explain what he's doing — looking for "he/they energy."
Here's his Twitter account where he's been doing this for a while.
The sandbox has a feminine gender but identifies as a turtle.
#1. Climate change.
Why would anyone wear t-shirt of a rock band?
I looked at #5’s Twitter and tic tok feed. He’s insane. The Left has driven him crazy.
Hell of a country we’ve got here.

Parrots are always cute. Lightening strike was good too, although the person yelling was annoying as fuck.

Shitting your pants will make you scream.
Lightning Strike was good. Always wondered what that was like. Obviously no one hurt and the house was damaged so no guilt,

I think boomer parents dressed their kids in obsolete old shirts that don't fit the parents anymore.

Influencers.

I never watch in order- I pick according to how you word the link.
I’ve only watched the parrots- I love birds so much! What could be better?
Yancy’s comment lol!

Who is so dumb to keep a tree that tall standing next to a house? That is just idiotic.
