Tell Somebody Off These Etiquette Songs by Jean Grae
When someone is rude to you or says something really stupid, sometimes you need more than a GIF or facial expression to reflect it. Send them a song by rapper and comedian Jean Gray from her albums This Is Not How You Do It and This Is Also Not How You Do It . Both are full of short, funny, petty songs about how people get annoyed. While the former is only available on Bandcamp, the latter is also available in a handy form on YouTube that you can copy and paste into the chat or comment thread:
The salsa song “Well, really” is addressed to those bolvers who have to correct everyone else, even if there really isn’t any mistake. “Thanks for your help, dude, you are really so smart,” it says. “I thought I knew all these facts about my life. But you know more! “
If you have a lot of tattoos, you will recognize the silly questions people ask you in the song “Yes. Tattoos are harmful. ” If someone is playing their music too loud, blow them up with Use Your Fucking Headphones. And get revenge on your rudest Facebook relatives by writing “Don’t be a jerk to the waiters.”
If you really can’t play these songs to people who piss you off, listen to them with headphones and take it easy knowing you’re right, everyone else is rude and at least one singer-songwriter is on your side.
This is not how you do it, and this is also not what you do | Jean Grey at Bandcamp
