Unfun
Unfun is the debut studio album by American band Jawbreaker. It was first released on Shredder Records in 1990 on CD, LP and cassette formats. In October 2008, it was announced that the album was being remastered for release through drummer Adam Pfahler's label, Blackball Records. Pfahler said that there were "'flutters' in that first pass, which is a techie way of saying that gummy leader tape splices between the songs made the beginnings and endings sound like they had been drinking, which is a longwinded way of saying that it was fucked up."[6] This edition was released on March 30, 2010, adding the 7" mix of "Busy".

gollark: I think it *is* a fundamental issue. If you force people to learn things they don't care about and don't want to do, they'll do the bare minimum.
gollark: They also have this graph of % in work/study, which is oddly different to the earnings one.
gollark: Possibly. As far as I know medicine courses also are pretty small in size and significantly more government-regulated/managed than other ones.
gollark: Well, sure, the maximum is higher, median is about the same.
gollark: Also, economics isn't MUCH higher, these are box plots.
