My ongoing love affair with Doug
I think Doug and I have hit a rough spot. He claims to have the Most Variety In The World... EVAR, but I still hear Head Games every single day and sometimes several times in one day.
Maybe I should start seeinghearing other stations, Doug.
Doug has these fascinating bumpers. I like the one that says,
"You can't spell 'variety' without 'Doug.'
... Oh wait, yes you can."
That is my kind of humour, folks. That kind of humor and humility is one of the things that made me fall in love with Doug in the first place. But now he has other bumpers, claiming things like "You know your favorite song? Well here it is."
Doug, you should know better. You should know that if you're going to make that kind of claim, the next song can't be Semisonic's Closing Time. It's bad enough that you want to play that kind of thing, Doug. I wouldn't mind if you did it on your own time, but when I'm around I'd really rather hear something else.
But when you make these kinds of claims, you just can't play Closing Time. Doug, I feel like you don't even know me anymore. Closing Time is not my favorite song, as you claim. Closing Time just gives me vivid flashbacks to my terrible film class project and all of the jumping and bouncing and spinning therein. Oh, the spinning. THE SPINNING, DOUG!
I don't know; maybe you're doing it on purpose. At one point I thought we were made for each other, but now you seem to be trying to make yourself attractive to a wider audience, as though I'm not enough for you. These head games are too much for me, Doug. I still really like you, but I think maybe we should cool off for a while.
