I love the part in "Cooky Puss" where...I think it's Mike D...says, "I house you!! Where's Cooky Puss at?!" Given that this track was dropped in 1983, that's a pretty early use of that slang term, especially for three white Jewish boys moonlighting from a shitty punk band.
Oh, and the part where he decides to order one, and the Carvel lady asks him when he wants it and he's like, "Anytime, man, just like, now and shit!" My sister and I have been using "like, now and shit" in Beastie-wigger patois for years now.
I remember my friends threatening to "house" each other back then, And we were little kids from super-white Martha's Vineyard. Musta been those breakdancin movies.
Heh, I have that EP. Is it worth much?
