Guys who kicked in my car door: what's on your Walkman?

Message Bookmarked

Saturday late-night / Sunday morning: my car is parked by a cemetery near the busy intersection of Irving Park Road and Sheridan Road in Chicago, IL, USA, just north of Wrigley Field, storied home of the Chicago Cubs. One or several individuals take it upon themselves to (a) kick in the rear passenger-side door panel, and (b) leave the centerfold from a copy of Hustler under my windshield wiper.

Please amuse me by using this information to speculate on what sort of surely-terrible music these folks might listen to.

Based on the Hustler and the demographic of the neighborhood's drunks on a Saturday night, I'm actually thinking Dave Matthews.

Nitsuh, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That really sucks :(

I think these retrobates probably listen to old school cock rock like Warrant, Ratt and W.A.S.P. Except for the leader of the pack who is into the Bee Gees and wears tight white jeans and a purple shirt with a frilly collar. His name is George.

I'm thinking something like Linkin Park.

Samantha, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Do you think the centerfold was left as a sort of peace offereing?

Samantha, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What a bunch of arseholes.

It's got to be Limp Bizkit really or Linkin Park yeah.

Ronan, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Linkin Park? I disagree with that...they are like a band for kids who skateboard in the park and stay in on a Saturday night and get all angst ridden.

james, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i bet one of them owns kid a.

ethan, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They certainly knew how to disappear completely.

Ok hit me. That was a new low.

Ronan, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They don't listen to music but they watch Britney Spears

Maria, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well........they are guys : )

Ronan, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

britney is fuckin hot but she can't sing, did you guys hear the new butthole surfers cd? it was fucked up, they're so gay now. i got the xzibit cd on tape, i stole it from sam goody, nigga is fuckin insane. shawn thinks rap is for pussies but i don't fuckin care about shawn, he didn't even like the dead milkmen after i made him a copy of their last cd, we should beat the shit out of that faggot.

ethan, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Dad's old Kansas records. Also Tortoise.

bitter pill: you may find them dancing at the Shelter this Sat.

The funny thing was that the Hustler centerfold was really disappointing. Surely the Interweb spells the doom of all such print magazines.

Nitsuh, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No - resolution is too low. We can tell the diff.

Tracer Hand, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

How come nobody said Enya?

Nude Spock, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

She's not hot, she's all the same color. Sort of golden brown. No more tanning and highlights on teenage girls. It's becoming really sickening.

I will now remove myself from the fashion pulpit.

Maria, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

But 'Spock, you just said Enya, I find your statement illogical.

james, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Tony Robbins's Guide to Building Self-Confidence and Obtaining a Stronger Self-Image Through Wanton Violence at the Expense of Others". With a Rammstein song on side B.

Odd. Saturday night someone smashed in two of the windows on my Pathfinder. They also took out the windows of a near by mini van. Total cost to replace my windows: $993. They didn't even leave me a Hustler.

And whenever I'd mention "the vandals" today I couldn't help but think of that old punk rock band from Cali.

bnw, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jesus! I had my driver side window smashed in a couple weeks ago and it cost $80 to fix at some mexican place.

Kris, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And whenever I'd mention "the vandals" today I couldn't help but think of that old punk rock band from Cali.

And they're still around, too.
