Title: Anyone's fam/friends annoyed with your MMJ OCD?
Post by: Zzzzzzzz on Apr 25, 2008, 10:33 AM
I'm only a fan within the last year.  For whatever reason, they didn't click right away for me.  But now, I listen more than any other band right now.  I was obsessed with Phish for years, so family and friends know what music is for me.  I get the feeling I am now beginning to annoy friends and family with my constant barrage  of praise for these guys.  I think they are starting think it's getting a little weird.  Oh well.   Their loss   ;D

I should say I do have one partner in crime.  My 3 1/2 year old son ALWAYS asks to put on some MMJ.  I've been accused of brainwashing  ;)

Same sentiments here friend.

My 7 year old screams Highly Ushpishus of you .

His two front teeth are missing.

Hysterical to watch.

My 14 year old daughter says " Dad don't you think it's a little weird to listen to MMJ so much?", but I catch her humming MMJ tunes also. Her new fav song is - I will be there when you die.

My wife didn't mind my previous Phish obsession since she was a casual fan that would see them from time to time.  I can't crack her with MMJ.  Not clicking for her.  But like I said, at least my son "gets it."

It is definitely an addiction, having a son request MMJ is probably the greatest thing ever. I don't know what I'd do if I had someone telling me to play MORE MMJ, I think I'd overdose.

I don't know if people are just being nice to me or think I'm a huge loser, because I am always telling people about new songs, TV performances, shows, and interviews. That is why I come here, where there are other people with the same disease.
