I’m enjoying watching the second season of _The Wire_, years after seeing the first on HBO, now that the whole series is streaming on Amazon Prime. But I can’t stand that fucking theme song, which is a way more annoying version BTW than in the first season. They always jump into it from the teaser with no warning, too, before I can hit the mute button.

I just don’t understand the appeal of blues, and I hate that whenever I mention this in casual conversation, people look at me like I just said I club baby seals as a weekend hobby.
