A conversation with Pandora Internet Radio

Pandora: A Poison station? Really?

Me: Don't question me, Pandora. Just get it done.

Pandora: Okay, how about a little "Every Rose Has Its Thorn?"

Me: Not my first choice, but I'll take it.

Pandora: I'm going to follow that up with The Used. How about that?

Me: What I'm really going for is a glam metal station.

Pandora: That's not really what I do. Just try it?

Me: Fine.

Pandora: Well?

Me: I don't like it.

Pandora: Fine. Be that way. How about some Def Leppard?

Me: Perfect, thanks.

Pandora: And we'll follow that up with, let's see… The Frauds!

Me: No, Pandora. No The Frauds.

Pandora: Try it?

Me: Fine.

Pandora: Well?

Me: I don't like it.

Pandora: Fine. Then we'll give you some Dokken followed by Alice Cooper. You happy now?

Me: Very. Thank you.

Pandora: And then… Foo Fighters!

Me: Pandora…

Pandora: Who doesn't like the Foo Fighters?

Me: I like the Foo Fighters just fine, Pandora. But not on this station.

Pandora: You do understand how I work, yes? See? I discovered that you liked the Foo Fighters! I am a genius!

Me: Shut up and play me some Winger.

Pandora: Fine.
