Bump This Thread When Jimmy Carter Outlives Someone Nonterrible

I’m sure I’ve probably heard that in a bar somewhere but I don’t recognize it.

I can name two Beyoncé songs. Umbrella and Chandelier where is my prize?

Pfft rhianna and sia are just Beyoncé alts

Isn’t that where most of his restaurants are located? :grin:

Remember also, people are not good at naming things off the top of their head, without prompts

Like in the Immaculate Grid, if it’s Braves x Tigers, a person might have tons of Omar Infante memories but you might have to give them the O or even Om before they’re like “Omar Infante! Duh!”

Or like slowly make the resolution higher on his photo until they get him

The hip had 5-10 songs that got massive airplay in the mid to late 90s. They were playing hockey arenas in 1999. They might be a no hit wonder though.

That’s definitely true for me as I get older. Definitely need a small cue to get my memory going at times. If I’m completely blanking on a name, I go through the alphabet in my head and that often jogs my memory when I get to the right letter.

I went to one of the Jimmy Buffet Casinos, but there was no actual buffet there. Just a regular restaurant. Seemed like an egregious oversight to me.

Yeah, I doubt they could even spell them but I’m sure they still have strong opinions they want everyone to know about.

Crazy Right Now? Is that a Beyonce song? Crazy in Love? Crazy something?

I think I can only name one Beyonce song off the top of my head… Crazy in Love.

But if you expand it to Destiny’s Child songs I can name a few more.

Yup.

There are many artists I would select before Beyonce for “can 10% of the general American population name 2 songs”.

I’m pretty sure Michael Jackson would be #1.

So Buffet was a centrist washout. Such a loss to politics.

Wow. I had no idea this was Buffett.

I remember Jimmy Buffet getting thrown out of a Miami Heat game for heckling the referees. He was sitting right under the basket and I think the refs themselves singled him out and tossed him. I believe it was a nationally televised game and the announcers were like, “Wait a minute, is that Jimmy Buffett getting escorted out?”

Beyonce has been a megastar for so long that you probably have oldsters who only know her from her Destiny’s Child and Jay-Z collab days and youngsters who only know her post-Lemonade songs.
