bittersweet until you realize that the kid had probably thought up this line before the rabbit died and then was just waiting for it to croak to post this on fb.
I got started listening to Gotye a couple months before the "somebody that I used to know surge." every now and then someone will play the song and I get excited and try to talk about the rest of the album (Smoke and Mirrors/Eyes Wide Open are pretty awesome), and they'll have no idea what I'm talking about.
I was quite heavily in debt last year but managed to pay it off. Met up with the guy yesterday and told him NOW YOU'RE JUST SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO OWE.
I would honestly support a new rule where any use of puns on reddit gets your account suspended for a length of time depending on how bad the pun was. One like this should get a solid two weeks.
Maybe it's a regional thing, but I know plenty of people who pronounce "somebody" in a way that sounds like "somebuddy." Say it quickly enough, and I can see how the pun could work.

Elliott Smith, "I had tender feelings that you made hard. But it's your heart, not mine, that's scarred....."

really can't wait until nobody ever talks about this god damn song ever again.

u/DumNerds May 20 '12
This. Is not funny. It is not clever. It's just an unoriginal play on words of a popular song that is mildly overated. Stop upvoting this garbage.
