Freakgirl, that’s painful. I never want to hear that.
Nifkin, I totally forgot about that megadeath song. Ouch. I also kinda liked that other song by the Asian gal band on the Carpenters tribute album. The one where she sings “Imatopoda wold.”
remember?

“Sweet Jane” By the Cowboy Junkies. It’s not SO SO bad but still. Why fuck with something like the Velvet Underground. And I am shocked at how many folks do it.

Staind wanted to be Pearl Jam. Just like Creed did. Just like every other piece of poo band out right now with tattoos and guitars. Fuck them all.

I used to want to be Pearl Jam. It was that hat he wore. Holy, hot friggin hat. That big hat. Do you remember that hat? Did I make it up? Mother love bone, I did not make that damn hat up. What happened to Seattle? What is there now? Something must be brewing. I can hear the distant chatter of angry, skinny white men waiting their turn.

I haven’t given up on Pearl Jam yet. Eddie sometimes scares me with his “attitude,” but old Pearl Jam still makes me smile.
I think most of the other ones in Seattle are dead.
I’m sorry. That was mean.

Or they’re in that hat, like white rabbits. He’ll pull them out one day. All of them by the ears. It will be grunge magic.
Didn’t you watch the Matrix this weekend?
