I'm just now exploring the Boots for the first time in my life. Can anyone recommend to me your favorite bootleg version(s) of Cooling? I love this song so much and want to hear it multiple different ways. What shows should I look up?
I know it's not unusual to have fairly short terms for UK PM, but all of the past 5 PMs have had terms which lasted less than four years (and of course, Liz Truss didn't even last 2 months). I certainly don't expect everyone to have lengthy terms like Thatcher or Blair but is this common in all countries with Parliamentary systems of is there something specific to the UK?

Inspired by the recent post about recent photos making you feel old, how about some fun images where the celebrities of our youth are still absolutely tearing it up.
I'm just curious how you perceive Tori's lyrical style. She plays around a lot with the English language itself as well as uses a ton of metaphor. Her lyrics are often difficult to parse for native speakers but I wondered what it's like for non-native speakers. Do you also try to carefully parse the meaning as well or are you just kind of rolling with it? As in, "I have no clue what any of this means but I'm just enjoying the music"?
What are some books that Tori has referenced in interviews, etc? I'd love to see a little list and see which ones I might want to check out. And if you've read any of them, feel free to add any comments about them!
I'm sure we've all seen video/heard audio of times when Tori stopped a performance to call out an audience member (for good reason) but what were the moments you actually witnessed, yourself?
[Edited to add: My story is from 2002, Milwaukee show during the On Scarlet's Walk tour]
I remember when she was playing "Hey Jupiter" and she stopped to say something like, "either take the picture or don't take the picture." I guess someone in the front was being very indecisive about taking a photo and distracting her. Tori said more but I can't recall so I don't want to try to quote. She wasn't yelling but was obviously irritated. Nothing like the infamous "get the fuck out of my show" moment but it was interesting to witness.
But what are your stories?
Hi all! I've been playing quizzes on jetpunk for years but decided to actually create an account and make my own! There were already a few quizzes on the site (like naming every Tori song) but I figured that we Toriphiles need more opportunities to stretch ourselves. I've created one so far which is just name all songs with 1-word titles.
I'm not going to link my quiz (I don't know if that would be considered spam) but I would love to know if anyone has suggestions for types of quizzes they'd love to see. I have several ideas in mind that I'm already working on but I would love more ideas!
And mods, I do hope this post is appropriate for this subreddit. I just thought it might be fun to find different ways to play with fandom and quizzes are something I love to do.
