His wife has been trying to have him committed. No doubt other people have been telling him that he needs to get. Feeling sorry for him won't help him.

I simply stated a fact. Beyond that I honestly don't know what you're talking about. If I did I'd probably be right to say that it's completely unrelated and completely irrelevant. I'd Google it but it seems like a waste of my time.

Is he getting help, or is he telling us that this is a test of faith for him?

How I felt about Creed doesn't matter and isn't a factor. That fact is he needs to get help and no amount of sympathy will help him do that. The people he's hurting deserve that a lot more right now.

Unmarried middle-aged man who doesn't like the band on your shirt and decides to tell you about the real music of the 70s?

Sure, the guy needs help, but we're well past the point where anything but shame and ridicule are appropriate responses to his narcissistic pleas for vindication. I feel sorry for his kid, ex-wife, and everybody else who has their sympathies dragged through his arrogant god-boy bullshit. This isn't some working class…

He's the one that made it public and AVClub didn't report on this mess when it first started.

It's more like believing in an all-powerful sky-tyrant doesn't fix the fact that you're an asshole.

Oh wait.. I thought that was a clever percussionist joke.

Aging record collectors aside, I never understood the hatred people had for this band. But, then again, the band was never that big of a big deal in my area. I liked the band when I was teenager because the filled a particular mood. But, also always a bit skeptical about calling anything they did jazz, and that turned…

It's still a matter of taste and it's not like Dave Matthews was without predecessors.

Not the point though. You should know whether or not you've read the King James, Gideon, or Good News Bible. That's not even considering the fact that there are so many abridged versions. You should also be able to demonstrate a knowledge of the bible beyond saying that God pretty awful in that book. You also also…

Any time someone tells me they've read the entire bible. I just ask which one. At this point you can assume they didn't know there was more than one version… and they haven't actually read the bible.

Which begs the question. Then why did the nobility create a non-noble pseudonym? Wouldn't it make more sense if we had the plays of Sir. Francais Backbacon ghost-written by the brilliant but not noble William Shakespeare?

Someone asked me about that, and I immediately mentioned a scene where the guy was trying to convince us that a lump of rock that wasn't square at all was too square to be made by an ancient civilization with ancient tools. He even held a square up to the fuckin' thing and he couldn't get it to sit level, and there…

It actually fits better with The Fall catalog than some of MES's collaborative adventures on his own releases. Elastica's strongest release is still the Radio One sessions.

Good looking female engineers are out there. I've worked with a few of them. I just wish they'd stop putting models up on the screen and then trying to convince us that they're ugly ducklings.

The point being made is that the female tech characters are usually just used as a device to move the main character forward, or provide a side quest (cause they get caught and require saving). They have amazing skills but those skills are conveniently defined by what the plot requires to advance or provide attention.…

OH… yah. J.G. did the Venture Bros. soundtrack. Seems like he should be better known for … everything else he's done.

I can imagine myself in a room not enjoying this while the people around me feel very different.
