A ghoul that has been kicked in the nuts

This is so easy, y'all.

The joke about the physical appearance of the Texas guard guys showing up in Chicago is not their weight. It's mean and it's hacky.

The joke is that they look like the Superfans. It's the mustaches. Come on.

I haven't been interested in TS since, like, 1989 maybe. That's on me, not her. Just for context, cos I have to say:

I respect poetry, and bending the language to break into new space. It's a noble pursuit.

It does not excuse "legitly."

LEGITLY.

First time I saw it was in a theater, very late at night with very few people in attendance. I lived within a few blocks, so I walked there and back, and when I got out it was so cold that I gasped, felt like I could barely breathe. I don't doubt that experience locked a lot of it in my mind.

Late-night-half-asleep is for Eraserhead.

Having watched it up to three times (I think I fell asleep during the last pass, but that was before the CPAP so it happened a lot) I feel like I can recall a shocking amount of Inland Empire. Like, most of it. If not necessarily in order.

HEY GUESS WHAT

Also I love how these guys commit to the bit so hard. Leather underpants, nail cuffs on every limb, random bones, so on

Sometimes I wonder if my love for blatantly experimental, "out" music is a challenge to all the people that say they love "all kinds of music." Like, well, okay: a) is this even music? And b) do you love it?

Cos in my case the answers here are:
a) I can't really tell
b) fuck yes I do

I don't agree, but that's fine! It's this blanket KETCHUP NEVER situation that I can't understand.

Depending on which SY album you're talking about, it could be unfair or MORE than fair

I like it on a humble hot dog. It's tasty on a regular ol' cheese curd.

Also very useful in marinades and sauces!

You eat yellow mustard when you want yellow mustard.

If you, personally, never want yellow mustard, that is not my purview.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO

Somewhat recently I've been seeing a very anti-ketchup sentiment going around. Like, not in specific applications, but overall "KETCHUP IS GROSS AND/OR FOR CHILDREN ONLY" shit.

What next, yellow mustard haters? Marinara class division? Fuck outta here with this

Dave Pajo's entry introduced me to Impetuous Ritual, who push metal into such an experimental realm I can't really make sense of it as "music."

It brings me such joy, and someday I hope to thank him for it.

Christ, he IS. He's one Ginty motherfucker.

I have one, if not two, copies of Ms. 45 in my house and yet I've never watched it. Gotta take care of that.

I typed "shut it down" into the gif field and oh my god I do not know memes anymore

This AND Mantzoukas dropping a Metal Machine Music reference on CBB in one week? What next, Vic Michaelis references "You Are My Everlovin'" on Game Changer?

I believe all of these to be functionally correct

Well now I just don't agree with that at all

the Cure - Happily Ever After: I feel like I got one hell of a bargain here - the jacket is well split (looks like a common problem) and the vinyl's a little beat, but nothing I can't listen through.

Pussy Galore - Right Now!: FUCK YEAH MOTHERFUCKER

Evaluating my vinyl purchases at Acme from the weekend previous:

Buckingham Nicks - s/t: my copy was a little dished, as most new vinyl I get these days is. The record is almost impossible to get back into the jacket after removal (also with mild difficulty.) Luckily it sounds fantastic.

Ray, a cat, holds up a cell phone with a single testicle dangling from the bottom. Dialogue: "I give you...Solo, by ChatSack with Karl Lagerfeld."

Gotta go non-linear after that

Adventures in dating apps: I don't know why I run across so many profiles that feature golf in one way or another, but I always deny that shit. Golf sucks, I don't want to date somebody into fucking GOLF.
