Refresh button? We don’t need no steenking refresh button! Ugh, sorry for all the duplication. We’re about to hit our max out point, aren’t we? Should we start a new thread? ---

WHooaa pardner. Is that a repeat or WHAT! It’s by a different artist, but I’m not familiar with the Joan Jett version **Lola** posted. Whadaya think **people**? ---

Welp, it’s DEFINITELY a repeat! And by a team member, too ☹ What’s the official score, and Team 2 gets to pick!!! 😃 ---

It’s a repeat, Joan Jett covered the old Sly and the Family Stone song. I failed to see **Lola** ’s post before I posted, because I’m a dimwit. Nevertheless, Team One is still a point up because we got the simul-post by **Kat** which wasn’t a duplication. Team 2, are you still playing? ---

Well, we also need to take into account that [n]tlw\*\*'s posting for Team One, and it’s Team Two that needs the next song. (Thanks, **tlw** , I feel better now :D) ---

If they are picking a new word, perhaps they should start a new thread, and link it from the end of this one. ---
