There's one FB poster who has developed serious request diarrhea. S/he requests about 30 songs every damn day, all of which were overplayed on Top 40 back in the day, and are now painfully common on oldies radio. Kind of wishing that AL would ask people to limit their requests to one song again.

There's a whole lotta request diarrhea going on.  But, limiting everyone to one request is cruel. I'd say 3, tops.  That way, Swellegant can get his WTF selection in.  ;)

I said "one" because people still didn't comply totally, but the length of their lists was drastically reduced. If everyone kept it to 3 I'd have no problem. Right now it's turned into a contest to name as many songs as you can from the given year.
