anal cunt (RIP)

http://lyricalfantasia.com/view.php?do=view&artist=Anal+Cunt&curletter=A

what makes it bestest is that every now and again the moderators catch wind of all these dirty lyrics and delete everything. Then the Anal Cunt fans slowly rebuild it. It's like watching an antfarm.

i was friends with the band in question for awhile

And what ever happened to Seth Putnam doin' vox for the Siege reunion..?

Why do you think we throw stuff at you?

You own all our cd's- you're gay, you're gay
You own all our 7"s- you're gay, you're gay
You bought all our t-shirts- you're gay, you're gay
You go to all our shows- you're gay, you're gay

[Chorus:] All our fans are gay [x4]

You think you know what we are singing about- you're wrong
You think we care about the underground- you're wrong
You think we won't fuck up your club- you're wrong
You think we care if you like us- you're wrong

[Chorus]

If we're nice to you, it's because we're broke
Or unless you got some drugs to smoke
When the drugs are gone, then we are too
Then we'll go back to making fun of you

[Fan voice:] "But I've supported you guys for so long!"

FAGGOT!

In your honor here's a snippet from Picnic:

Greed / Greed / Greed-Greed-Greed
Greed is something that we don't need

Help! This is Mother Earth!
Somebody please help me!

The corporations don't even care
While the rain forests go bare
Oil spills & tanker wrecks
Don't show the sea creatures any respect

The park turned into a parking lot
The woods turned into a shopping mall
The swimming hole turned into a sewer dump
Isn't there anyone who cares at all?

Greed, greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed is something that we don't need

You stand by and watch the corporate rape
But not me, I made this tape
After 12 years of Bush & Reagan
We've become an insensitive nation

The park turned into a parking lot
The woods turned into a shopping mall
The swimming hole turned into a sewer dump
Isn't there anyone who cares at all?

Greed, greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed is something that we don't need

Corporate greed, rape and crime
The laws are stepped on all the time
Polluting the water, they don't even think
But their money won't help when there's none left to drink

The park turned into a parking lot
The woods turned into a shopping mall
The swimming hole turned into a sewer dump
Isn't there anyone who cares at all?

Greed, greed, greed, greed, greed
Greed is something that we don't need

(gaywad!)

I WAS ON MY WAY TO TURN IN ILLEGAL ALIENS TO THE INS
AND YOUR STUPID FUCKING DOG WAS BARKING AT ME
IT SOUNDED LIKE A SINGER FROM A GAY DEATH METAL BAND
I WANTED TO KICK IT IN THE FUCKING FACE

I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT

AFTER I BEAT THE FUCKING SHIT OUT OF IT
I WANTED TO THROW IT THROUGH YOUR FUCKING WINDOW
BUT I NEEDED MONEY TO BUY SOME MORE WHISKEY
SO I SOLD IT TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT

I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT
I SOLD YOUR DOG TO A CHINESE RESTAURANT

YOUR FAMILY ORDERED PU PU PLATTER
YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHAT YOU WERE EATING
IT WAS YOUR FUCKING GAY FAITHFUL DOG
WHILE YOU WERE AT THE RESTAURANT I LIT YOUR HOUSE ON FIRE

I couldn't afford to buy you a present so I wrote you this song
I want all the lovers of the world to help me sing along
I'm only a simple man; I never made much money
But I've got a wealth of love to share with you honey

When I think of an angel I think of your face
I want to make sweet love to you by the fireplace
I want to be your architect of your castle of love
I'll never take for granted my gift from above

We'll take a ride through the foliage
Watch the leaves turn orange and brown
Woman, I never thought I'd say this
But I want to settle down

I wish we were on a deserted island
Just me and you
I'd climb right up a tree
And get a coconut for you

YOU FUCKING DYKE
YOU DIDN'T WANT TO GET TOUCHED BY A MAN
YOU WANTED TO BE A STRONG SINGLE MOTHER
YOU ORDERED A SENSITIVE, GAY POETS SPERM

I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK

INSTEAD OF A BRIGHT POET OFFSPRING
YOU'RE STUCK WITH A DROOLING RETARD
YOU WENT BROKE PAYING FOR SPECIAL CARE
YOU'RE GIRLFRIEND LEFT YOU FOR ANOTHER WOMAN

I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK
I SNUCK A RETARD IN TO A SPERM BANK

Rancid Sucks (And The Clash Sucked Too)

Ska is gay, Reggae is gay
You’re fucking gay and you’re not punk
You say you hate corporations, but you were on NBC
London’s calling and they’re calling you gay

Chorus:
Rancid sucks, Rancid sucks, Rancid sucks, and The Clash sucked too

If Kenny G had a Mohawk, he wouldn’t be punk
If Yanni had dumb tattoos, he wouldn’t be punk
If Garth Brooks pierced his nose, he wouldn’t be punk
If Liberace sounded like The Clash, he wouldn’t be punk

Chorus

You’re gay, you suck
And The Clash sucked too

i'm sure this will surprise no one, but i LOVED anal cunt when i was like 15.

i think the clash suck, too.

I think these guys missed out on some hugs.

never heard the first note by AC, but these threads always brighten my day.

If we're nice to you, it's because we're broke
Or unless you got some drugs to smoke
When the drugs are gone, then we are too
Then we'll go back to making fun of you

Fred Durst is a fucking faggot
He thinks he's black, but he's just gay
He cancelled a show cuz he sprained his ankle
He's also a fucking midget

Chorus
You're not fucking black, you're just fucking gay (x2)
You're fucking gay

The guitarist wears a mask
To hide the cum stains on his face
They're the gayest band I've ever seen
And I've seen the Culture Club live

Chorus

Fred wears a hat to hide his baldness
I refuse to believe blacks think he's cool
I wish he'd beaten and raped by some black guy
And see if he still wants to be black

THIS IS AN EXTRA SHIRT FROM OUR WEDDING (SETH AND JULIE PUTNAM) UNWORN, IN SIZE LARGE. IT IS ONE OF THE ONLY TWO EXTRA ONES WE HAVE LEFT. WE GAVE THEM OUT TO EVERYONE WHO CAME TO OUR WEDDING ON MAY 17TH, 2008. THE FRONT OF THE SHIRT HAS A PHOTO OF US (SETH AND JULIE) ON IT (SETH IS THE SINGER OF ANAL C*NT AND MANY OTHER BANDS) AND THE BACK OF THE SHIRT HAS ALL OF THE BANDS LOGOS WHO PLAYED AT OUR WEDDING RECEPTION ALONG WITH THE LOCATIONS OF THE WEDDING AND THE RECEPTION. THE BANDS THAT PLAYED WERE NEGATIVE APPROACH, PSYCHO, AND RED VINYL. THE SHIRT IS BLACK. SHIPPING IS $7 IF YOU LIVE IN AMERICA, AND $15 IF YOU LIVE IN SOME OTHER COUNTRY. I ACCEPT PAYPAL & MONEY ORDERS.

should i see them live

I saw them play the fireside bowl in chicago with Flying Luttanbachers in 96 or so. Within 30 seconds of their first song the singer threw himself into the audience and somebody was bleeding.

so, yes.

and Wesley Willis was there.

Ah, Chicago.

the best interview answer I've ever read:

http://thephoenix.com/BLOGS/onthedownload/archive/2009/04/16/anal-cunt-kicks-off-national-tour-at-church-seth-putnam-offers-quot-professional-services-quot.aspx

I asked him how it felt to be in a coma. "Actually, it turned out it was just as gay as the song I wrote nine years ago — being in a coma was just as fuckin’ stupid as I wrote it was. We did a show on August 27 in Albany and we played ‘You’re in a Coma’ for the first time ever live. I don’t want people to think I’m a hypocrite. I don’t want people to think that I can’t make fun of myself."

I just found out Anal Cunt are supposed to be playing with Haggis (politically dubious Norwegian Oi band) at the fucking Luminaire of all places - this is a bar in London that frowns apart from talking during bands playing - they must know this is a bad idea surely?

I'm sort of tempted to go just to see how wrong this is going to end up. I suppose that's the point

Is that Aussie guy 'Chopper' still on this tour as well?

Mark 'Chopper' Reed is also billed. Hmmm should I get tickets?

'You look Divorced' always made me snigger - the title that is - cannot bring the 'tune' to mind

Yes, me too.

Best song titles ever. "You Live in Allston" is a personal fav because well, I used to. lol.

oh man, anal cunt + chopper, what a dream bill. be sure to ask chopper about the guy who had a go at him with a tomahawk in an abbotsford pawn shop a few months ago!

still going? The band, I mean.

yeah apparently. though seth putnam is in very poor shape:

I still prefer the Happy Flowers.

^^otm

that's the saddest fucking interview i've ever seen. never understood the ilm fascination with this band. he seems pretty serious about the racism shit to me.

voted for duke and bush, didn't sound like he was kidding.

wow found another interview where's he straight up saying he hates jews cuz he grew up in a jew city...

Jim Goad to thread!

"Crystal Meth" hmmm...

Not sure what would be weirder, someone devoting a decade or more to producing work that is 'ironically' racist, misogynist or whatever, or people continuing to believe that it's irony after that sort of a period. But I suppose this question might apply to a few bands.

in the other interview he says phil anselmo said he would put out some AC stuff...makes total sense they would be buddies.

yeah, i mean you've got to question the state of mind that compels somebody to put out "ironically" offensive and hateful songs in the first place.

seth putnam dead? http://grimkim.tumblr.com/post/6445001603/yes-its-true-seth-putnam-one-of-the-most

looks like it. RIP and all, but not sure his relentless hatefulness was doing the world a whole lot of good.

Being dead is gay.

^^ LOL.

This bit from that link sits uneasy with me:

I want to remind everyone that no matter how outrageous and controversial his musical career has been, Seth was still a human being with friends and family that loved him. I’m hoping that the internet will remember that. This is a very sad and trying time for those that knew him, and the last thing they need to see is an outpouring of messageboard hate. The man lived and died by his own rules; if anything, respect him for that.

I mean, sure, it will be sad for his family/friends, but this call seems rather out of character for anything related to Anal Cunt.

no no no they're trolling you there

making you not troll them over this dude dying is in effect its own troll

Touché

RIP. "311 Sucks" got me through a dark time. The time when 311 was popular. Thank U Seth. Wish it was the guy from the Meatshits instead of you.

pretty much the only "celebrity" death were laughing and joking about it is not only not at all nagl but actually totally appropriate.

was wondering why this got bumped then saw the RIPs on fb

guy frequented a lot of pvd noise/grind shows, RIP you barrel of f'kn bile

I can't think of a musician's death I've ever cared less about.

RIH Seth

their lyrics and song titles were pretty funny ... so RIP/goodnight funnyman i suppose.

Were they really that funny? They kind of made The Macc Lads look like Momus. And regardless of what a wanker he obviously was, musically they were completely sub par. Had form for assaulting a woman in a wheelchair if I remember correctly as well. Like punching her in the face and spilling blood, style assault.

So, see you then. Don't let the door hit your arse on the way out.

If you want funny song titles AND good music try The Locust.

anal cunt cant annulled

i'd always hoped that SP's lyrics were some sort of elaborate joke. at times, they seemed a little too self aware and calculated in their over-the-top offensiveness. but that same lyrical self-awareness undercut any pleas of ignorance on the part of SP's apologists (shit, he even wrote a song called "being ignorant is awesome") and pointed instead to outright malice and indifference thereto. and if those lyrics weren't enough, there were the troubling matters of his hanging with white-power skinheads and behavior that repelled whatever audience he had. laughing at those obnoxious lyrics gets a little more difficult when the man who wrote them is throwing chairs and cinder blocks at you.

gonna post this on here because (a) ppl who never open the rolling metal thread take a vague interest in AC and (b) it's booming

Really hard to find the right sort of response to Seth Putnam dying, if only because I am an overserious dumbshit who feels a need when somebody somehow in my orbit dies to sort of accurately define who that person was. I mean, to speak plainly about him, he was a bigot; people like to dismiss bigotry as "trolling," but in many interviews it was plain that the trolling aspect wasn't "adopting a persona to get a response" but "exaggerating genuinely-held offensive opinions to get a response," i.e., yes, he's trolling, and yes, he's still a bigot, and a misogynist, and a person who takes pleasure in making other people feel bad. I saw the same process play itself out year after year with people learning about A.C.: somebody quotes a song title, huge laffs, bigger laffs on reading tracklistings, and then always, always, this moment reading lyrics where you go "wait a minute...this is more hateful and angry than funny" and the smile sort of freezes on you as you begin to get the impression that what's funny to Seth about this shit may be not be what's funny to you, which actually does matter when it comes to humor, and so A.C. has kinda done you the favor of making you look at a little harder at yr "it doesn't matter what the author meant" stance if that was yr stance. I always thought the lyric to "I'm Glad Jazz Faggots Don't Like Us Any More" was sort of the essential A.C. text:

we just wanted to sound like shit
but you thought we were avant garde
you thought we went to art school
but we worked at gas stations

you didn't know we were a bunch of assholes
you thought we were liberal and arty
you tried to act weird and pretend you were violent
when I whipped chairs at you, you ran off and cried

once you realized we hate people like you
you finally stopped coming to our shows
now there's less faggots, less people with glasses
less know it all eggheads, no more jazz fags

which...I mean, one thing I like about punk is the same thing other people hate about it: the preachy aspect, I mean. That axis where a demand for freedom of expression meets "p.c.," which I don't use in a pejorative sense. A figure like Putnam forces the scene he chooses to engage to confront its values within its own confines instead of sitting around a squat where everybody agrees that racism is bad. I think that's valuable (though I don't know how valuable: "how" both as "to what extent" and "what's the take-home from it"), but it's an accidental effect of Putnam's actual racism and sexism.

By most accounts he was a seriously troubled dude, and that's sort of what he leaves behind: a record of what it sounds like inside a pretty fucked-up dude's head, without a lot of filtering or shaping into a form that'd be appealing to many people. He didn't "actually hurt anybody" (people who get hurt at Anal Cunt shows aside, which, I mean, if you go to the G.G. Allin show you don't get to complain that you came home smelling like shit) but he spread a lot of hatred, and it was the genuine article, not stylized hatred-for-literary-purposes stuff that interests the people who ended up writing about his band. I don't have a good conclusion to this interminable meditation on the death of Seth Putnam, so I'll just stop here.

can't really explain why but "we just wanted to sound like shit / but you thought we were avant garde" feels really evocative, when you see it written down

Do I wish to feed her or fill her mouth with filth?
Is it just to test whether she accepts my messiest mess
Or simply paint a funny milk moustache across her face?

^highlight of 'Beer Sex Chips N Gravy' iirc btw

Thread title needs alteration of some sort...

It's funny, I was reading the AC wiki page justlast week, and thought "blimey, that band's had some membership turnover, even more than the Fall in that time period"

instead of sitting around a squat where everybody agrees that racism is bad

Yeah, because that's exactly what had been happening in punk, metal and grindcore before AC and by God we needed his hyper intelligent wake up call.

If there's one thing I don't mind there being a consensus about, it's the fact that racists are cunts.

Actually I'm not sure I've fully understood Aerosmith's post. It's not like I haven't read it a million times but I'm probably missing something vitally important to his argument here...

the only times i've EVER thought about AC is because of ILM. always found them to be 100% avoidable/absent from my life otherwise.

Doran, much punk activism amounts to preaching to the converted. A bunch of people who agree on a subject reinforcing one another's beliefs on said subject isn't an entirely valueless exercise, but it is of limited value. The same people confronting, within their own scene, the actual thing that they oppose: this has practical value; it's instructive; it tests mettle, but more than than, it's an opportunity for actual/practical reflection. This wasn't Putnam's goal, or any kind of excuse/justification for his life & behavior, but it's valuable, as I had thought I wrote clearly when I said "I think that's valuable (though I don't know how valuable: "how" both as "to what extent" and "what's the take-home from it"), but it's an accidental effect of Putnam's actual racism and sexism."

Fair dos. I disagree to a certain extent about how much there was ever a total orthodoxy in hardcore, let alone metal and grindcore. Not even Dischord was squeaky clean for example. But the a lot depends on what year it is, where you're hanging out and what city you live in.

I think Melody Maker in the UK were one set of people who were 'taken in' by them.

I don't think there was ever a total orthodoxy but as HC became more codified as a genre/culture it became the default position

this co-exists with an expectation that it be 'challenging' or just plain obnoxious, so it's kind of inevitable that it would have an element who would put two and two together and figure that assuming the position of right-wing sociopaths was a good way of getting under people's skin

or, as I suspect was the case with Seth, being at that point already and working out that hardcore and grind were the scenes where he could push the most buttons

I really shouldn't throw stones considering I own way too many ICP albums but it always amazes me when I discover that people actually listened to Anal Cunt

i met this guy a few times at parties, were from the same town or hes from the next town over but other anal bros were from the same town idk they were quite a bit older than me, the drummer worked in the cheese section of the whole foods precursor bread and circus, anyway v strange dude iirc i heard him delineate this concert concept he had that would take place in a bus which would eventually be driven over a cliff but legally itd be cool cause hed get the audience to sign waivers, i have no idea particularly what he 'really thought' abt things, one time i saw anal cunt and they were really kind of amazing imo, rip

We did as teenagers, but it was mostly for juvenile WTF kicks and none of it was taken seriously whatsoever. It surprised/disconcerted me later to find that Seth Putnam is more or less serious about his projected persona. Then again I guess if you're going to listen to a band with songs called "Van Full Of Retards" you can't really get pissed off when he does actually turn out to be a total cunt.

other anal bros were from the same town

lol best use of hro-speak i've come across in some time

I own way too many ICP albums

wait what? based on what little i know about you from here i would never have pegged you as someone who invested money in their records

i heard him delineate this concert concept he had that would take place in a bus which would eventually be driven over a cliff

picturing Seth as a keen Young Ones enthusiast not that much of a stretch as it goes

man i am not looking forward to whatever lolz-y blowback i get from a seth putnam obit

"i only wrote your obituary because i needed the money (you're gay)"

luol

xxp: Yeah, he's a bit of a Rik type innit?

I can't think of a musician's death I've ever cared less about.

RIH Seth

Pretty shitty and fucked up thing to say about an actual human being you've presumably never even met.

Dude sang in a mid-level grindcore band - he wasn't Joseph Goebbels. You're an asshole.

oh yeah by all means let's extend the respect and empathy to seth putnam in death that he so graciously offered to the rest of us in life

He was the singer in a grindcore band, dude. Dee Dee Ramone has probably done far more actual 'wrong' in his life than Putnam did, but no one would dare say "Thank God that junkie piece of shit is dead. Rot in hell, Dee Dee!" It's just a gross, tacky-ass thing to say.

I think the point being made was:

He was in a band that provided Ironic entertainment from un-PC statements.

He did not influence his audience to think and vote likewise, like (say) Ian Stuart Donaldson.

He did not move into politics.

He did make music that the people who geniunely have those kind of views, would absolutely hate. If he lined up alongside those politicians, he was doing us all a favour by making those people look dumb. But, as far as I know, he did not do this.

He was a poor dumb sod who had nothig better to do.

seeing this guy sing unbelievable by emf while doing the running man and hucking milk crates at the audience was kind of a cheap joke but still p hilarious

I still want to hear his version of "You're going to need somebody on your side" Morrissey.

r.i.p.

lmao

The early years
The band's very first performance was in 1988 at Putnam's mother's house in front of some family members, namely his mother, his two little brothers and his grandmother, as well as some of his mother's friends.[5]

So glad Assholes took time out of his busy schedule policing white hipster's rap collections to give me a lecture on morals.

He was the singer in a grindcore band, dude.

What does this actually mean? Like I've met dudes from Napalm Death, Carcass, Locust, Cephalic Carnage, Daughters! etc etc who have all been really nice guys... in the way that weren't homophobic racists who beat women up. The style of music has no bearing on what this guy was like.

the wiki is fully hilarious

On returning to the US, Anal Cunt decided to get a second guitarist who could carry on playing with the drummer during the violence and shouting. The choice was John Kozik, and with it came a new era of the band.

That interview upthread seemed to suggest he was a 'humble dude' who discussed the band in a good-natured way with the TV interviewer...

That's not to say he wasn't all what you say either, still..

wait what? based on what little i know about you from here i would never have pegged you as someone who invested money in their records

hahaha um... yeah

I own everything they released between 1992 and 2000, which was the point where the stuff they were releasing ceased entertaining me and started annoying me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcl5x7aEiTw

With this line-up (or variations on it), the album 40 More Reasons To Hate Us was recorded, and this album marked another change in the band’s direction, as it marks the start of them having lyrics and, more importantly, insults contained in their songs.[7]

This album was essentially a collection of insults and featured the songs "You’re Gay" and "Technology’s Gay", as well as a guest appearance from Kyle Severn from Incantation. A lot of the songs refer to things being ‘gay’, as this was a common slang word in Massachusetts and in junior high schools across the United States at the time.

hahahaha "at the time"

the au courant stylings of anal cunt

personal favorite: "windchimes are gay"

My point wasn't that because he was in a grindcore band he's expected to be an insensitive jerk. My point was that because he was in a grindcore band, he was relatively harmless. At worst, he was a bad comedian. My point was that dickhead upthread taking apparent joy in dude's untimely demise is crass and tacky. I can only hope the karmic comeuppance is good and hard for taking delight in a musician's death.

Lyrics
Anal Cunt are often cited as having common lyrical themes that include misogyny, homophobia, anti-Semitism, racism and ridicule of the unfortunate, although this has not always been the case. Many of these songs included insults, either general or specific to one person.

Their I Like It When You Die developed the idea of containing insults in their songs, with a recurring song title being "X Is Gay", with X being a person, place, thing, idea or event.

honestly i never minded anal cunt when the misanthropy was just o.t.t. zany. "i killed your horse" is still hilarious.

I can only hope the karmic comeuppance is good and hard for taking delight in a musician's death.

okay lol

"are you ready for some HOT HARD KARMIC COMEUPPANCE ACTION"

Criticism
Critic Steve Huey called their album Morbid Florist "barely listenable".[13]

ILIWYD established the template.

I did buy one, yes. I also felt that I didn't need another one anyway, but when the follow-up came out, I did think they were trying too hard to be offensive, whereas something like "Being a cobbler is dumb" was something they could actually explain with a rational argument.

(That's not from the Wiki page, btw)

To be fair, their prejudice was unprejudiced - they applied the same amount of bile to various subsects of society as they did, well, windchimes and stuff. They even had a song called "Everyone in AC is Dumb"

you tried really hard not to say "equal opportunity offenders" didn't u?

haha

the technical term is "misanthrope."

there was an interview by professor dum dum, whom i only know from sporadic guest DJ spots on WFMU where he conducts the entire show in a comedy German mad professor accent, where he tried to poke through seth's schtick to reveal the sensitive, not actually that mean man underneath and I think at certain points he was actually successful?

My point wasn't that because he was in a grindcore band he's expected to be an insensitive jerk. My point was that because he was in a grindcore band, he was relatively harmless. At worst, he was a bad comedian. My point was that dickhead upthread taking apparent joy in dude's untimely demise is crass and tacky.

yr right, I should have thought about my actions -- I never realized saying I didn't care that he was dead on a message board was going to prevent Seth's body from resting in peace. o what have i done?

o what have i done?

made yourself look boorish imo

nothing against you personally dude but "well here's ONE person whose death I don't mourn!" is always a lame & juvenile schtick to pull when somebody dies unless it's an actual despot or something, when somebody dies the best rule to follow is "if you have nothing constructive to say, why not shut the fuck up?"

he might have run over neanderthal's cat.

because the cat was gay.

waiting for discourse to sink to a Putnamian enough level that when like Valerie Harper dies half a dozen people swing in with "I can't really say I'm sorry to see her go, Rhoda couldn't hold a candle to the rest of the CBS Monday night lineup back then...a pale pretender eating up airtime...rot in Hell"

i learned a lot about anal cunt today

have you read a blog's comments section lately, aero? revolution putnam style now has already taken place.

yea, those two things are comparable after all, aero...

I mean, this is ILX, a board that has threads with titles like "I am glad Jim Morrison is dead"

i actually disliked Seth a LOT while he was alive, and considered him to be a lowlife who inspired a lot of bad people, so chalk it up to that. Compare for instance to someone like Mitt Romney, a dude who I can't stand, but like if he was to die in a plane crash tomorrow, I certainly wouldn't say "no big loss" and I'd still consider it a tragedy.

this is what serenity looks like

j/k I had it installed in Firefox but I'm a self-flagellant like everybody else and I read comments until my blood boils, then drink myself to sleep

it does seem kind of counter-intuitive to decry someone saying mean, insensitive things about someone who became famous/successful for saying mean, insensitive things

tbf i plan to have people throw pies at my casket when I die

like, I expect the jokes during Gilbert Gottfried's funeral to be brutal

'well, I know his will said do not let George Takei in under any circumstances, but since it'll be hella funny...."

these guys just become funnier to me the older i get. shouldnt it work the opposite way

depends on what it is.

Awesome, hilarious, Anal Cunt-inspired, Donald Trump-satirizing death/grind/noisecore duet from San Diego, California, USA featuring Travis Ryan of Cattle Decapitation and Rob Crow of Pinback and Goblin Cock! This is their debut album, 30 tracks in 3 minutes :)
