Didn't see a cause of death listed in this obit. You don't know that for sure.

Maybe? Take a listen to Deeper (which I think is his best) and decide for yourself — he sort of works between Nine Inch Nails and the darker end of The Cure, which of course sounds awesome, but he has an tendency to favor style over songwriting IMO.

Some people have that kind of look, and in my experience they are almost always time-traveling dark mages.

WELTANSCHAUUNG RAPTOR?

Donkey Sauce somehow sounds even dirtier now.

Guy Fieri stole my heart, and when I got it back it was chock full o'lipids!

Threatening people with semiautos is the new tilting at windmills! At least, that's what my lawyer is arguing.

Whenever I get involved in a debate about whether Coke or Pepsi is better, I just remember the advice my dad gave me on my wedding day: "Son, it doesn't matter if you just butt chug".

Doesn't he seem a little… "festive" to you?

Yeah, but it depends on who you are. Barry Manilow, the reaction is essentially "Yeah, we know." If, say, John Cena came out as gay tomorrow, the reaction would likely involve fire.

Hey, at least she doesn't say "Andyrooney balls" before she gets the tweezers.

Just here to say that Germfree Adolescents is on par with Never Mind The Bollocks, the Clash s/t, or Pink Flag as a punk album, and if you disagree you are wrong, straightup.

At least we got Trans out of it!

Uncontroversial opinion time: The "ditch trilogy" is Neil Young's best work, in a career of great work.

Here are the albums I listened to this week:

Sounds like you need to go and listen to Slowdive's Souvlaki right now. (And then hit their first few EPs — Slowdive, Morningrise, Holding Our Breath.)

Yes, but many do not use them, which i think is the point.
