“Making Flippy Floppy” by Talking Heads from my favorite concert film Stop Making Sense. David Byrne has his typical… esoteric… lyrics, but I’m particularly tickled by “Our President’s crazy, did you hear what he said?” at around 2:45.

It’s Valentime’s Day, sometimes we ain’t got somebody to celebrate with and that’s OK. Sometimes we have a different someone than last year, like Taylor Swift, who in no particular order has been attached to:

John Mayer
Jake Gyllenhaal
Harry Styles
(There are also others (so many others), but none of them are particularly relevant to the ‘Hint’ part of this post).
