The Badass Portfolio (Borderlands Playlist)

Playlist dedicated to @notaliteraltoad​

I feel like every author has their thingy they do every time they write something - some drink coffee, some listen to a TV, and I? I have music. Music influenced more than 90% of my writings, sometimes the chapter is named after a song, sometimes the lyrics are mentioned or directly inspire the dialogue.

And with that, let's have a look at The Pieces of the People We Love, my beloved Borderlands Series with a playlist and a slight commentary from the author herself. Also, it can help during the quarantine when you don’t have new tunes to listen to! :)

There is, of course, The Rapture song Pieces of the People We Love which started it all. To admit, I first heard this song when I played Tales from the Borderlands for the first time... And holy hell, I love it. But why did I picked this song to be the main one for this series?

Well... The first reason is obvious: it was used during the road trip montage and since then, this damn song is the one I always play on a road trip. Second - the lyrics are something that has an amazing meaning. Everyone interprets them to their liking, but to me, holy moly - a song about lovers who can't be together done in such a way? And the fact that they sing that everyone has a piece of someone inside that we want to hide? I'm all over it.

Before we characterize the main characters, let's focus on the Y/N's playlist itself:

Hold On by The Animal Fiction

Let Me Live/Let Me Die by Des Rocs

who dat boi by bbno$ & so loki

tony th-t by bbno$

Pieces of the People We Love by Rapture

Shit Just Got Real by Die Antwoord

Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz

Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes

I Can't Stop by Flux Pavilion

As- LIke That by Eminem

Most of these songs are in the playlist for one particular reason - Y/N is a huntress and listens to it mostly while she’s triying to kill one or two Skags in a Runner provided by Catch-a-Ride™. I don't exactly see why she’d listen to normal pop songs since she's living on Pandora and... Pandora is no way like today's world. These tunes may sound a bit harsh, but... Yeah. Also, this is only the scratch, a highligh if you will, there's much more tunes. 

Now, we have Y/N's songs here:

It’s not like I think that she’s an egocentric sociopath, no - in fact, she’s not even my original character in the end. But... This reader is not a soft baby princess you kiss and she falls apart. No. She was living on Pandora long enough to become a bloody badass (she has a metal arm, dude) and this bitch isn’t holding back anything. She does not like you? She will just tell you. And Scooter needs this kind of a woman.

mememe by bbno$ & Lentra

Snap Out Of It by Arctic Monkeys

Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked by Cage the Elephant

Lone Digger by Caravan Palace

She Wants Me Dead by Cazzette, The High and AronChupa

Now, let’s have a look at Scooter:

He’s a lovely, dumb dude, this Scooter. He has a romantic soul and a heart of gold, fear of robots, ince*t relationships (only distantly related gals can apply), pretty thick redneck accent and he likes cars, girls, and cars (exactly in this order, don’t mess it up). He doesn’t know what a second base is. I decided to approach him as the gentle soul he is, to show how naïve and nice he can be... I fell in love with that boy. So even the songs, naturally, are more romance-focused.

The Less I Know The Better by Tame Impala

Amour plastique by VIDEOCLUB

Stolen Dance by Milky Chance

Shut Up And Drive by Rihanna

Genius by Diplo, Sia and Labrinth

Finally, we have their mutual relationship:

They start as strangers forced together by destiny (or a Bandit boss, pick whichever you want). Slowly, they become friends, or something like that because Y/N doesn’t do friendships when Scooter helps her with her fear of rockets. Over time, she tells him why doesn’t she want a part in the Vault Hunter life and why did she have to have her arm amputated only as a child. Scooter doesn’t tell her any secrets, because he can barely keep any since the first moment they meet. And for the love of God, he keeps telling everyone that Y/N is his girlfriend. But no-one believes a shit he says.

To The Top by Twin Shadow

Friends by Marshmallo and Anne-Marie

Lost It To Trying by Son Lux

Myrtle Beach Summer 1974 by Yung Gravy and bbno$

Eyes on Fire by Blue Foundation (Is this a rather subtle Twilight refernce?)

And last, but not least, the relationship in the Vault Hunter group:

There’s a lot of elements to work within this team, my dudes. Like Lilith talking 24/7, Brick and Mordy being Brick and Mordy, Roland being dead and stuff, the whole Sir Hammerlock thing along with his fiancé, Moxxi being herself... But I overall like the team dynamic they can bring onto the table when they’re trying their best. Like when they’re trying not to have the universe blown up and stuff.. 

Bubble Shit by ,AMCO, Victor Sheen and Fosco Alma

Paper Planes by M.I.A.

What Makes a Good Man? by The Heavy

Girl On Fire (Inferno Version) by Alicia Keys and Nicki Minaj

Party by Myself by Hollywood Undead

Thrift Shop by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

Talk to Lilith by Oboeshoes (aka the VH group theme song they sing every time they have to talk to LIlith)

 Everywhere I Go by Hollywood Undead

Happy Together by The Turtles

Do It LIke a Dude by Jessie J (one for all the strong women who have to put up with men’s constant bullshit, like Maya, Ellie, Moxxi, Janey Springs or Athena)

And a bonus one:

Fuck you by the one and only, Lily Allen

Oof I laugh because I’m no interesting person at all either

1. Most of the places I went to vacation were my brothers archery tournaments. My favorite places were St. Louis and Myrtle Beach (I’ve only been to four different states)

2. If anyone knows the old tv show The Walton’s then you’ll understand when I say my family and I live in one house. The house was built in the 70’s, when my mom was 6 so 1974. That isn’t what’s interesting though; my great grandfather and my great x2 grandfather dug out a hole and made a pond. Yes, we have pond.

(I wish I made a panorama because there’s an old dock down on the left. To the right was an ooold doc made before I was born but it’s torn down now)

3. We use to raise cats! And no, we kept all of them! My grandma’s side of the family was always crazy about cats. When I moved to my family home (the one I’m in now) there were three main cats; Wilma, Mama Jo, and Mama Dot.

Mama Dot was like the Queen; giving birth to most cats around the house. In fact Mama Dot was Mama Jo’s mom. In one summer a few years ago all three got pregnant but Mama Jo and Wilma left their litters with Mama Dot. That means we had almost 20 kittens?

Some of the cats we have now were born from the three. Smokey Jo (also known as Boi) was Mama Jo’s (he’s the oldest; like 11 or 12.) Ro and Stormy were Mama Dot’s. The other cats (Letty May, Littleman [also Sheldon], and Jack) were adopted. Sheldon was given to us, Jack was unwanted in my brothers girlfriends home so she took him here (without telling us so I ended up adopting him), and Letty was adopted from a shelter.

This was fun to do!! Thank you for tagging me!

I tag; @fishbowl-mysterio and anyone else that wants to do this!!

thanks for tagging me @odd-fe11ows! i always get so weirdly happy when i get interaction online. it must be some sort of allergic reaction

first fact is: i enjoy writing poetry. i’m probably not the best by any means, but it’s pretty fun! i even have an acc on a poetry forum thing and everything lmao

second fact is: my favorite song right now is touch tone telephone, and my favorite band is siames. they just kinda *･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*･'(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)'･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*

third fact is: i now play the kalimba! i’ve only had it for a short time, but it’s easy to learn and really relaxing to play. it sounds like a music box and is kinda cheap, so if anyone wants to learn a new instrument during this pandemic but is low on funds, i definately reccomend kalimbas

anywell, those were some random facts about me. hope you enjoyed knowing a bit more about the cryptid who runs this blog lol.

Pauly Shore: Eyewitness to Comedy History

Brash, nasal and opinionated, Mitzi Shore took a middling comedy club on the Sunset Strip and for a time made it the center of American comedy. That was the Comedy Store, which she won ownership of in her 1974 divorce. Before she died in 2018, the Comedy Store launched the careers of a bevy of stand-up comics, including David Letterman, Jay Leno, Jimmie Walker, Elayne Boosler and Sandra Bernhard.

Watching them all was her son, Pauly Shore. He gained notoriety as “the Weasel,” a lewd surfer character, and became a popular V.J. on MTV before appearing in 1990s movies like “Encino Man” and “Bio-Dome.” Today, at 51, he’s still a working stand-up and has begun performing a one-man show about his childhood called “Stick With the Dancing.” Backstage after a recent performance in Myrtle Beach, S.C., he shifted out of his Weasel persona and remembered his childhood as an eyewitness to the greatest minds in comedy. Looking back on that scene of the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s, he spoke about his mother’s influence — and the breakthroughs and feuds that surrounded her. Here are excerpts:

Mitzi Shore as a Force of Nature

My mom was very loving — but her first love was always the Store and the comics. She owned a limo — a weird-looking limo. Riding in it, I felt like we were the Addams Family. But Mom loved being driven around. She always had comedians drive the limo.

Hiding in the Lighting Booth

Around age 8, Pauly Shore became fascinated with stand-up and spent as much time as he could at the Store, hiding in the lighting booth to watch stars like Redd Foxx and George Carlin and little-known talents like Lenny Schultz.

Lenny Schultz was a P.E. coach with a beautiful body, but he was nuts. He would bring food onstage and say, “The Lenny Schultz diet, what I like to do is put food on the parts of my body where I want to lose weight.”

Then he would strip down to a Speedo and stick handfuls of cottage cheese inside the Speedo. He’d pour milk on his head, rub a grapefruit on his elbow, and smear chocolate pudding on his chest. My little jaw dropped. After a performance, he’d go out to the parking lot to clean up. My first job at the Comedy Store was hosing down Lenny Schultz.

House Calls From Robin Williams

None of the club’s regulars hit it bigger than Williams, who parlayed his sets there into television and film stardom.

Robin Williams was a really sweet guy, but he would run around the club like the Tasmanian Devil. For a while, my mom’s office was at our house. Right after Robin got the “Mork & Mindy” TV show, he’d show up at our house to meet with my mom, wearing the Mork outfit.

Comedians are very sensitive. My mom knew that, and she was like the den mother to all of them. She knew how fragile Robin was, and they had this kindness for each other that was pretty special.

The Gentle Richard Pryor

Pryor rebooted his career at the Comedy Store in the 1970s.

My mom was very close with Richard Pryor — she took him under her wing. I know they had sex one time, but their relationship wasn’t a sex thing, it was a love-intimacy-respect thing.

When Richard showed up at the Store, it was like a wave went through the club: “Richard’s here, oh my God, Richard’s here.” I’d go out to the parking lot and open the door of his car. He’d get out, say “Heeeeey little man!” and shake my hand. He wasn’t socially awkward, the way most comedians are offstage; he was gentle and soft.

Once he got inside the club, I’d fetch him a Courvoisier, he’d light a cigarette, and my mom would sit next to him on a staircase. When the M.C. would announce Richard, people reacted like Jesus Christ was coming onstage. He would get a laugh as soon as he spoke, no matter what he said.

Richard came around whenever he was developing a new standup set; Paul Mooney, who wrote with him, and Jennifer Pryor, his wife, would sit in the back and take notes. And Richard would be terrible at the beginning — the audience would worship him, but he’d do five minutes with no laughs. He’d keep working at it, and it’d get a little better, but still be pretty bad. Then I’d go away for a little while, maybe a month at summer camp, and when I came back he’d be doing 40 minutes and killing.

Mondays at the Club

That was “potluck” night, with performance times determined by drawing names from a hat. Some aspiring comics would spend months performing on Mondays, gaining experience and trying to get in Mitzi Shore’s good graces.

Garry Shandling did over 20 showcases for my mom before she gave him a prime-time slot. She believed in him — if she didn’t, she wouldn’t have let him hang around — but she pushed him really hard. He was a writer and she thought he didn’t have it as a performer yet.

Same thing with Roseanne — my mom told her to wear overalls. To this day, I think Roseanne got her cadences from my mom. Roseanne kind of worshiped her.

Hollywood had the casting couch and the Comedy Store had the Mitzi couch: if you wanted a spot onstage, you needed to kiss the owner’s ass. But when my mom liked you, she would make you a doorman. You could park cars. “You’re great. Now go answer the phones.” You’d be on the payroll, getting comfortable in this crazy environment.

Yakov Smirnoff worked as the handyman at the Store — and at our house. He needed a job, and he was a carpenter. He sanded our doors and built a butler’s pantry.

Late Nights Offstage

Sometimes after the Store closed for the evening, a handful of comics would go to Mitzi Shore’s home.

My mom had afterparties at our house, but I was a light sleeper. From the third grade through junior high, I would wake up in the middle of the night and everyone would be in the living room: Mom, Richard Belzer, Robin Williams, Richard Pryor, David Tyree, other randoms. She’d bring champagne from the Store and there’d be lots of joints.

I’d open the door to a smoke-filled room and say: “Mom. Mom. Mom!”

Then she’d notice me. “What? Oh, hey, Pauly.”

“Mom, I’ve got school in the morning, please.”

Everyone would just stare. They apologized, but the second I left the room, they would start laughing.

Comics on the Picket Line

After Johnny Carson moved “The Tonight Show” from New York to California in 1972, aspiring comics in Los Angeles had a clear career path that involved attracting the attention of Carson’s bookers (who frequented the Comedy Store). However, the comedians weren’t paid for their sets.

My mom saw her role as giving comics a space to develop, but it was obvious she was making a lot of money. The comics wanted to get paid, too. So in 1979, they went on strike.

Mom took it really personally. It was embarrassing to have all these comics out in front with picket signs. They had messages like “No Bucks for Yucks.”

It was hard. One comedian, Steve Lubetkin, killed himself, jumping off the roof of the Hyatt House, landing on the ramp between the Hyatt and the Store. “My name is Steve Lubetkin,” his suicide note read. “I used to work at the Comedy Store.”

The [striking comics] ended up making a deal and got paid a token amount. My mom never really forgave the comedians, but pretty soon the drugs were flowing and people were partying again and everybody seemed to forget about it.

Mitzi Shore expanded the club over the years, but Pauly Shore discovered that if he wanted a stand-up career of his own, he would need to leave.

When I got into high school, I wanted a 100-gallon saltwater fish tank. Mom said she wouldn’t buy it for me, but that I could work for it — she made me the short-order cook on weekends at the Westwood branch of the Comedy Store.

My mom used the Westwood branch for comedians she thought weren’t ready for the Sunset location: Howie Mandel, Paul Rodriguez, Arsenio Hall. Jim Carrey did these amazing impressions of Elvis Presley and Henry Fonda.

Budd Friedman owned the Improv, and there was a feud — comics had to play one club or the other. It was awkward, because me and Budd’s kid went to Beverly Hills High School together. I used to go into the Improv, write down the names of the comedians working there and tell my mom.

My mom also had this tense situation with Rodney Dangerfield. In 1985, he hosted HBO’s annual “Young Comedians Special” — and Rodney recruited them all from the Comedy Store.

My mom didn’t like that he was poaching her comics — but they wanted to be poached! Roseanne did the show, Andrew Dice Clay did it. Sam Kinison had been working as a doorman at the Store, but the spot he did on Rodney’s special made him famous.

Mom banned Sam from the Store because of an incident where he showed up all coked out with a gun, looking for somebody he had beef with. I was hanging out with Sam a lot and she thought I was going to die. We had this intense fight where she told me not to spend time with Sam. I said, “Mom, you don’t understand. I’m not hanging out with him for drugs — I’m hanging out with him because he’s a genius.”

She started crying and threw her keys at me. The next day, I got my own studio apartment and started my stand-up career without her.
