If Vermont ever decides to get its shit together and secede from the United States, there is a very good chance that a song by Belle and Sebastian will become their new national anthem. Not because of the band's geographic origin, but because of their banality. Belle and Sebastian, for those whom are unfamiliar, is apparently best listened to through the standard-installation speakers in the Suburu Outback or at parties where there is little chance for drunken sex. Although it may provide the perfect background during a rousing game of Scrabble or a pensive “should I get my Masters in public policy or just work for a NGO” session; it does not indicate a propensity toward any sort of sensuality or adrenal rush.
I thought that listening to Scottish music meant you liked to drink whiskey and fight. Not drink Stella Artois and French kiss the latest Dave Eggers novel. - Jafar
