A quick story about how I gain some sick pleasure:
For my birthday last year my boss got me an iTunes gift card since he always sees me with earphones in. Which was very nice of him, he certainly did not need to do that. Nor was I going to lament that it was a gift card for iTunes, and I have a Zune (also, iTunes is one of the most bloated programs, ever, but I digress).
I was going to download “The Onion: Future News” but as it turned out, that is now free, so instead I downloaded a new CD from a friend of mine. Sadly, I usually can’t make it to his shows, but he is talented, so I was happy to support him. This left me with $4 and some change, which I’ll be slowly working down.
One track I purchased with that left over credit: a new remix of “We Belong,” the proceeds of which are directly supporting the Trevor Project, a charity which supports LGBT youth.
Oh, the irony (and the good music)
All my best,
The King of Spades
