How to Explain the Future to Your Past Self

January 20, 2020 by Scott Meyer

January 15 was the 30th anniversary of Flood, by They Might Be Giants.

I’d love to say that my first exposure to the album was listening to it in its entirety, but that’s not the case. My first exposure was when a good friend who had heard the album before me was absentmindedly singing “Particle Man” to himself, and I thought he’d lost his mind.

Because time is a flat circle, I recently caught myself singing the chorus to this They Might Be Giants song while I was shopping. I’m pretty sure anyone who overheard me had questions about my mental state as well.

As always, thanks for using my Amazon Affiliate links (US, UK, Canada).
