And, of course, nostalgia and Americana wistfulness. I almost died after a 9gram shroom trip,” or, “ You’re walking around a dying mall, you’re the only person there but it feels like you’re being followed,” evoke a sense of ennui and leap off the screen because of their specificities.
Vehicle for a larger joke - A lot of the playlists that you find are more in-line with the Weezer one, only more elaborate and range from universal truths to things that maybe plague under 1,000 people in the world. In the screenshot above, we have a standard joke that invites the viewer to do a little bit of mental deduction for the punchline (apologies to Weezer fans). The collection of playlists on the whole often goes into more off-the-wall directions, with my personal favorites zeroing-in on the comedy of details.

In this Snacktime, Amory introduces Ben to the fast-growing "Weird Spotify Playlists" Twitter account and subreddit, where song titles are way more important than the songs themselves. But if it's a "Weird Spotify Playlist," the object of your affection better have a sense of humor. The lesson? Never underestimate the power of a good playlist.
Fun fact: Ben wooed his wife with a mix CD, and Amory's husband wooed her with a mix CD.
