Dear Arthur Rimbaud-

Your writing continues to inspire and provoke me. I even have your face tattooed on my bicep. But did you really have to do that whole colonialist/slave trade thing? Kinda pissed me off.

thx

Dear Nazis,

I'm really sorry for thinking you were disgusting savages. But hey, at least your uniforms were snappy!

Dear Mr. Vikernes

I am sorry I ever bought your records.

Dear Dennis Miller,

Your Weekend Update was my favorite part of SNL for years and the first couple years of the Dennis Miller Show were terrific. Why did you have to turn into such a dick?

Dear Rolling Stones,

Oh, how I love your songs. There are no words, really, for how much they mean to me in this lifetime. But gentleman, your conduct toward others, oh never mind, I can't do this. Sorry.

I used to be crazy in love with Kelsey Grammer and Frasier was my favorite show growing up. He has been through some nasty crap in his lifetime and I don't exactly approve of his women issues. Also, I never liked Camille. Never. Something seemed golddiggerish about her. For some reason his Republican standpoint never bothered me but I guess I never thought about it much.
It's old as hell but I do have a copy of his autobio "So Far..." from 1995 and let's just say, damn. Those are dark secrets, son, damn.

That's not a "laugh track", it's an audience and you're in it. (MintIce), Monday, 6 December 2010 13:59 (thirteen years ago) link

Dear Sir VS Naipaul

I would not want to have you over for dinner but your novels & non-fiction are equally superb

Dear Mick Jones and Joe Strummer: You made a couple of excellent rock'n'roll albums, and I can even support some of your socialist ideology. But punk was never a good idea.

Dear Sun Ra:

Your music is truly cosmic but in reality Saturn is uninhabitable.

Dr Mr. Blackmore:

You seem to be one of the most despicible people to ever exist. And the hats you wore were really stupid, as were the ludicrous hairpieces. However, you really kicked ass up through Long Live Rock and Roll.

Dear KLF,

You were a'ight I guess, but DAMN I could have used that.

More Kelsey Grammer drama in this ILM thread, well that didn't take long. I mention him this morning and by the end of the day he's engaged to that chick that miscarried his baby.

This thread has been properly derailed by Grammer-ing. Although if we stretch it a bit, he did sing Frasier's theme and is featured in the soundtrack to A Christmas Carol: The Musical.

Man, it is fucking wrong that I now want to read a Kelsey Grammer autobio, esp. one from before "Girlfriends."

Dear Deathspell Omega, Your music provides a unique, mind boggling one of a kind experience,

But I don't care much for human sacrifice or satanic worship.

Kthxbye

Dear Christian music by white people,

Admittedly, it's prejudiced and hypocritical to find black gospel kind of stirring but white gospel creepy and bland. But I do.

Happy Holidays,

Dear Malcolm McClaren,

Oh jeez I don't even know where to begin... Your solo stuff, Bow Wow Wow, your involvement in 8-bit music... just incredible. But you unleashed the Sex Pistols and the New York Dolls into the world and all that came with it... completely unforgivable!! Also you were a big S&M freak so that's kind of icky. Sorry you died from one of the worst, most painful cancers, tho, no one deserves that.

Yours Truly,
I. Haight Puhnck
