  1. This playlist makes me scared of Dinah Shore. Thank you AS for having A-Camp (although I can’t go….)

    • I am also frightened! I had to make this to process my emotions. You guys need to help me!

      • Is it sad that this comment is enough to make me want to bring this to fruition? I need to fix my life.

  2. This is the first Dinah I’ve missed in many, many years! I had decided not to go when all of a sudden, A-Camp was revealed!

    • I had already committed to Dinah riiight before A Camp was announced. I am going to both now. This is going to be my gayest year ever. I figure I should round it out with a few prides for good measure.

  3. The idea of Dinah Shore terrifies me so much that I want to listen to this playlist while writing a horror story. Like what if there was a zombie invasion at Dinah Shore. What then. Whitney Mixter would have to flay them with a Xena-like spinning dreadlock attack

  4. Forgot that my headphones were plugged into my phone and not my computer.

    Long story short blasting Nelly doesn’t really go well with the smooth jazz cover of My Boo that’s being played in Panera.

    • Haha, amazing. Chortling loudly at Corner Bakery is also less than enthusiastically received.
