copied from my plurk and crossposted everywhere, as usual

I was in a Gorillaz-listening mood last night. I think I did too much of it, because Phoner to Arizona was subconsciously in my head all night. Seriously, it was playing in my dreams like background music.

I also think I know too much "old"-ish (probably not) slang like "lift" and "boost" (to steal). Misunderstood this one headline this morning that said:
"Teen Lifts Car, Saves Grandpa"
And until I finally figured out that he literally lifted the car, I kept trying to figure out how stealing the car saved the grandpa.
