The chorus of “Treat Her Right” by Roy Head is all “heys.”

I remember a song from the sixties called, “Hanky Panky”. The whole song pretty much consisted of,”My baby does the hanky panky”, over and over. It was a hit though.

?!

She looks even better in person - although I doubt she remembers meeting someone as uninteresting as me.

Now Halle Barry might - might - remember me because I beat her at pool when she was just becoming mega famous. Was a random meeting in (redacted - near LA). Her bodyguards were not amused. She backed them down. And then beat me a few times. I also won a few games.

I did ask her for her number. That went over poorly with the bodyguards. Lol.

Again,I had no idea who she was when I played her. She is actually a really good pool player though - and just enjoyed some good games while trying to be a normal person.

They said the chorus of her song relied on their lyric, “playas, they gonna play, and haters, they gonna hate”.


Um....
those aren’t the lyrics... they can’t even get that right.

I listen to her album every single day.

Right now the song going through my head (it’s a sleeper, it grew on me) is “So it goes.”

“All eyes on you, my magician...”

I want to see her in May so badly.

“I stay out too late, got nothin’ in my brain
That’s what people say, mmm hmm, that’s what people say, mmm hmm
I go on too many dates, but I can’t make ‘em stay
At least that’s what people say mmm mmm, that’s what people say mmm mmm

But I keep cruising, can’t stop, won’t stop moving
It’s like I got this music in my mind, sayin’ gonna be alright

‘Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off

I’ll never miss a beat, I’m lightning on my feet
And that’s what they don’t see mmm mmm, that’s what they don’t see mmm mmm
I’m dancing on my own (dancing on my own), I’ll make the moves up as I go (moves up as I go)
And that’s what they don’t know mmm mmm, that’s what they don’t know mmm mmm

But I keep cruising, can’t stop, won’t stop grooving
It’s like I got this music in my mind saying it’s gonna be alright
‘Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off

Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

I shake it off, I shake it off
I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off

Hey, hey, hey
Just think while you’ve been getting down and out about the liars and the dirty, dirty cheats in the world
You could have been getting down to this sick beat
My ex-man brought his new girlfriend
She’s like “oh my God”, but I’m just gonna shake it
And to the fella over there with the hella good hair
Won’t you come on over, baby, we can shake, shake, shake, yeah oh

‘Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate (haters gonna hate me)

Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake (the fakers baby)

Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I shake it off, I shake it off””

It seems that Taylor Swift doesn’t want to sue all the people who make memes with her picture and things she never said.

Please summarize the result of the case.

The Supreme Court, 30 years ago this month in a landmark 8-0 decision, ruled that public figures can be satirized and parodied. Despite Larry Flynt's crude Hustler advertisement, the court found that no reasonable person would believe that famed televangelist Jerry Falwell engaged in drunken sex with his mother in an outhouse. This ruling would also find that no reasonable person would believe that Taylor Swift is a Hitler-quoting Nazi.
