This is what I hate about Coachella and all music festivals and all youth especially youth in America and abroad. Put your clothes on, stop being an idiot, stop doing drugs, stop yelling at cops who are just doing their job (something you, one day, will have to have…even if you went to “art” “school”), stop watching paul mccartney (whom you’ve never cared about before), stop dancing, stop going out, stop having fun. Buckle down, buckle up, go for a little test drive called responsibility.
For some reason I can’t find an original embeddable video for here, so you’ll just have to travel over to Jezebel to watch this one but it’s a funny clip from SNL farcin’ on Dov Charney.
Ditte couldn’t stop raving about this new Megapuss stuff, Devendra’s little side ditty, and I tell ya what…I dig it. Monster Jams. Here’s their myspace
I’ve got some weird passion for Tesla Coils right now. I mean, they’ve always been tight but for some reason right now they’re TIIIIIGHT. Must be all the lazers in my brain. Tesla Downunder is killing as far as hot tesla websites out there right now, I mean I’d say top 3 Tesla Coil fansites goin right now. Definitely on their way to the top. Out of sight.
Oh you thought I was kidding? No, I don’t kid about Tesla Coils. They’re too tight for kidding.
Creation Nation - On the Street 2006

Youtube user: Karaokephile has a hit here! holy lord save us from that freakshow. check out his other videos
I think babyballs sent this one over…what a poof! take that, jersey!
Another from Ditte, is this old news? pretty cute. think i’m gonna do a subtitling for it. got any funny ideas? let’s make it!
Our favorite rapper/pit bull fighter/theoretician has spoken and the masses are a listenin, lemme tell ya what! This dude’s dead on, whatever he says, I do. If he were Master P he would make me say “unh” if he were kris kross he’d make me jump. Read the prophets words here:
Are you following the presidential race?
Not at all.
You’re not? You know there’s a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there’s Hillary Clinton.
His name is Barack?!
Barack Obama, yeah.
Barack?! Barack. What the f**k is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?
Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
Barack Obama?
Yeah.
What the f**k?! That ain’t no f**kin’ name, yo. That ain’t that ni**a’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the f**k outta here.
You’re telling me you haven’t heard about him before.
I ain’t really paying much attention.
I mean, it’s pretty big if a Black…
Wow, Barack! The ni**a’s name is Barack. Barack? Ni**a named Barack Obama. What the f**k, man?! Is he serious? That ain’t his f**kin’ name. Ima tell this ni**a when I see him, “Stop that bullshit. Stop that bullshit” [laughs] “That ain’t your f**kin’ name.” Your momma ain’t name you no damn Barack.
And this reflection on the artist’s life:
What were you doing in between—from the last album to this one, that whole time? What have you been up to?
Life. I been up to that. It’s been crazy. Fuckin’ police keep on fuckin’ raiding my house and shit for nothing. They took all my fuckin’ guns. All they did is take is take my guns. All they fuckin’ do is fuck my house up and take my guns. That’s all they did. Straight robbed me—that’s what they did.
pretty sure this was on the soup. they should make a soup out of this kids brains. and the kid who made this vid. me likey. from yo gabba gabba and the brain of some stoner
And lastly…Vero I’m terribly sorry but I just have to put this up, it’s too funny to be real. Slow Mo Vero! Jerkinoff dude! hahahahaha
I started the day feelin like doofus toof over there but i’m slowly starting to take on ol cuban billy blanks here. getting my health back hour by hour. why’s dude got a tie on anyways?
so here’s something strange:
Ben Kingsley as Ian Mackaye….one big WTF to all of this. Mean magazine….i dunno. couldn’t he have at least shaved off all that facial hair mishap?
and as for how a real show should go down, this one is it. Last night the Black Lips played HEAVEN in London, my friend Ditte frantically told me this morning all about it, apparently the security were holding down some police state shit and a near riot broke out, but not before the lips scorched the earth with a “this is how it’s supposed to be done” set.
did anyone see this film? Mister Lonely by Harmony Korine. Somehow i just missed it, must’ve been in my blind deaf mute period this year. it looks fantastic and i’ve read some stellar reviews. not to mention the use of that bobby vinton track let’s rent this piece!
WHOA! somehow i missed this too. oh right, i gotta get cable. This is the daily show’s John McCain profile - the reformed maverick. stunningly they even went after his war experience, welllllll done lads
THIS IS IN MY QUEUE!!! hoooo my god. and if you can’t see it was enjoyed by members who also enjoyed “I accidentally domed your son” master p…i love you.
heeyyyyyy…..can anyone get me some of that other gas? starting a new metal band and….you know…need some help
it’s been a lil bit and I apologize. I was in Florida last week, hangin in a wild beach neighborhood, then over to my parents place and in Alabama a bit to see my cute grandma. While I was there I was super stoked to see the Blue Angels show and with the previous post, you’ve seen what came of that. The umbrella video is traversing the internet now, getting tons of hits and generally having a pretty good time in it’s posh new famous life. as of right now it’s got about 14,000 on youtube and some douche ripped it from there and reposted on break.com where it’s gotten 240,000 or so. It was on college humor and my favorite: Countdown with Keith Olbermann, “oddball”:
i cant seem to get it to embed here for some reason, will work on it.
Florida was great, here are a couple fun photos:
and that’s what you do! watch hurricanes and play with guns. and bbq (not shown)

VBS vs The Hold Steady aired today, maybe it’s not what I expected but it’s still fun to watch:
The new Hold Steady record is killer, it opens w a Dillinger 4 reference and continues in a wordy rock n roll spiral to greatness. Some really smart, stellar writing involved.

NOW….let’s throw out some fun stuff now! what do we have…
this story resonates on a deep, personal level with me. Back in college my roomate, Ted and my neighbor Skot and I would occasionally go eat at the Olive Garden (da OG if you will) and continuously took advantage of the endless breadstick and salad deal that permeates the OG’s reputation (aside from, now, their shamefully unattractive, nearly nude girls online). While we enjoyed our Italian combo meals greatly we always noticed that we were only seated one one side of the split restaurant, after a few visits and some glances down the hall to the other side we assumed that they were ashamed of our appearance and sat us in the section with the other cretins who were drooling on the floor and letting their kids defecate in the seats. Collectively we decided it was time for a change, time to step up to the plate, to show THE MAN what we were made of. And so we donned our finest suits shirts and ties (pants and shoes too!) and stormed the OG gates. As the hostess began to seat us in the same damn section we’d been sitting in I stopped her and exclaimed “AHEM….excuse me but…I think we deserve to sit on the…OTHER….side today, thanks.” She gave me the most blank, albeit slightly confused look I’ve seen and said “ohhhhhkaaaaaay” and led us down the path to golden greatness. As we entered the gates of heaven and chicken parmigiana we sat down next to a man with his teeth on the table, a group clad in camouflage, babies flinging poo, and I might’ve even seen a hen running around. The moral of the story? Money might not be able to buy you happiness, but it might just get you a seat at a better Italian restaurant. the end.
I gotta go get a drink now w raincloud and the tattler. yall have some fun
Not sure when I’ll get to update again as I’ll be in Philly the rest of the week so I’ll try to put up a larger sum today:
First up, little baby boy Ben Ritter got a QnA in Milk Mag and per usual I loved reading it because he peppers his written conversations with the same shit that spills from his brains including lots of “likes” some superfluous onomatopoeia and “decoder ring”.
roedawg and blackoutman outgay any rainbow any day. new hampshire will change a man.
The only thing gayer than a rainbow, I retort, is how loud I’m laughing and squeeling watching this. It may be a lottery commercial but uhhh…hangliding penguin anyone? sheesh that’s too cute.
Ol Zacky poo. dude’s just funny is all. Thanks Bryce
is this even possible? i mean come on. maury’s such a dick!
Afrirampo music video! what the shit!!!
Afrirampo live!! keep your eyes peeled little ones, this is gonna be huge!
Thunderheist-Jerk It. for those that know her, doesn’t she look like Stella? weird.
This is so good, all of it. i want that meat. i want those people!! i want that songwriting ability!!!
In a perfect world a filthy rich aging Englishman would be charmed by my wit and intellect and adopt me, ask that I come live on his massive estate, marry his beautiful daughter and sip cocktails in the afternoon while we come up with new objects to catapult with our brand new trebuchet. Starting the Craigslist search now.
Go here, enter in your significant other’s name, add that they smell and are lazy or something and send it to them. If they dont pee their pants laughing and love you more then you really should break up with them.
WTF is this? Ditte sent it to me and said it reminded her of me. I…guess…..so…?
meh…I guess that’s about all for now. Probably some more in a bit.
the newly infamous Jay Reatard punch at the Silver Dollar during “My Shadow”. Kinda Awesome, mostly stupid
Amazing guitar bash to face by Coachwhips (maybe the hospitals)
X-We’re Desperate (from Decline of Western Civilization 1) I always loved this clip: the silver guitar, the dirty fishnet shirt, the cool swagger, Exene’s howl, John Doe gives the boot to the crowd
Brian Jonestown Massacre - Knitting Factory (from Dig), the exact opposite of X: cowardly and drunk, no swagger, no points
Converge - Gainesville fest ‘02 pt 1
Converge pt 2 - this one’s not as clear cut of band attacking crowd as there were all kinds of complications with guards and whatnot, but what a killer riot that ended up being!
