I can be pedantic, too

Julian Casablancas by NRK P3

I was walking to bus stop today listening to Automatic Stop by The Strokes and- ahh, this isn't interesting. The only interesting thing is that I wasn't really 'walking to the bus stop', I was in the kitchen listening to music.
People who ride the bus are generally more interesting than people who stand around in the kitchen, listening to decade-old songs. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if those people who stand around in kitchens are the same people who worry about their hyphen use.

He can be pedantic, he can be pedantic. -George Costanza.

Anyway, the whole point of this is that one of the lines in the song is "it's just a phase, it's got pass", but I always hear "life's just a phase, it's got to pass." And I think that that's super cool for some reason. Is this only interesting to me?

P.S. I wanted to write "hyphen use" as "hyphen-use" because the hyphen I was referring to was in the previous sentence, but it felt too obvious.
