I scanned and initially misread that as Man propositions the woods and was very confused about the whole endeavour…

Im with you to a point. Midnights reaffirmed my earlier belief that she is pretty self absorbed and vapid as a general rule
Vapid is a harsh and pretty nasty adjective. Especially for someone who, whatever the merit of the story, is a pretty damn good storyteller. In fact that ability to tell a convincing story through lyrics is probably her main songwriting gift.

I stand by it. Red through Evermore notwithstanding
K. I think its use in this unnecessarily harsh and lacks substance but you do you. I’d consider it to be a word that’s more loaded than its bare meaning.

Detroit-based rock band Sponge was formed in 1992 and consisted of vocalist Vinnie Dombroski, guitarist Mike Cross, bassist Tim Cross, drummer Jimmy Paluzzi and guitarist Joey Mazzola. Their biggest hits to date include “Plowed” and “Molly (Sixteen Candles)”, which are both from their 1994 debut...www.musiconvinyl.com
My wife's top streamed song on her Spotify a couple of years ago was "Molly" by Sponge and we still have a good laugh about it.
I could see if it was in the 90's but her most played track in 2021?

To be fair, Red through Evermore spans almost a whole decade, a decent chunk of her entire career

I find the fact that people decide a word is offensive means the word is offensive super frustrating.
We’re all reasonably intelligent people here who should be able to understand what we’re all saying. As a general rule I’m not harsh towards any artist so maybe I just mean that until Red I found her music a bit boring and her subject matter seemed pretty empty then too. The word vapid says all that without me spending a paragraph doing it and by term seeming more critical than if I just used the word.

I will agree it is a terse word. I like terse though. Despite the connotation of that word.

He's playing a free show at Irving Plaza in NYC next week. It's a lottery. My daughter is entering, but I'd imagine chances of winning are slim
It’s a loaded word because of the way it’s used not because it’s offensive per se. It’s generally always used to dismiss a subject matter that is either alien and often of a younger generation than the user. It is also often used with the connotation of the writer/spreader having much superior taste/intelect. Not that I’m saying you are doing that but that is way too often the case.
On the opposite I actually think that genuinely offensive bad language gets a bad wrap, unless you’re using it literally it’s fun, harmless and adds a certain emphasis to a point.

I mean fuck is an awesome word in its literal meaning. But what do I know, I’m an ass.

lol! Let’s say you have to be careful about when and where you use it literally then

And the recipient! Although I suppose that’s context anyway so there we go.
