You’ve been warned, parents.

@ASprinkleofSage @batkaren It was like she couldn't think of a legit criticism so she spouted the first thing that came to mind. Those kids and their confounded jazz! I wanted to tell her that I endured a whole hour in a restaurant, without complaining, where they only played Edie Brickell. She could certainly get over herself.

@batkaren i wonder if they just misspelled jizz

[jimfl@hachyderm.io]

@ASprinkleofSage @batkaren FUN FACT: jazz is an alternative term for jizz/jism

@batkaren People underestimate the risks associated with exposing children to jazz at too early an age

@batkaren "I'm arresting you for attempted jazz."

@batkaren For years I thought it was metal the parents were worried about.

Apparently they now draw the line at the smooth tones of Edward Lee Morgan.

@batkaren oh no! Not the Jazz!

@ASprinkleofSage @batkaren I don’t avoid women, Mandrake. But I do deny them my essence

@batkaren the devil's music

[joejoetom@famichiki.jp]

@batkaren Oh noooooo, not JAZZ!! EEEEEE!

[joejoetom@famichiki.jp]

@sanpan @batkaren Well, there's death metal, so why not murder jazz?

And my father wondered why I would read from his Playboy subscription in the first grade

@kimlockhartga @sheislaurence @batkaren I didn't even like jazz until I hit Middle Age

[ceartas@mastodon.world]

@batkaren @kimlockhartga

<GASP> Not Jazz!! Western Civilization is doomed!!

Now that I think about it, MORE JAZZ!

@batkaren
So, what about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_from_Hell? Including a track called "G-Spot Tornado"?? If that's not a danger to children, what is?!

(This *instrumental* Zappa album had to wear "parental advisory" stickers exactly for that reason. )

@batkaren Definitely a reason to let the kids not watch that one...

At least it doesn't deal with mortgages and home finance.
