Thank you, Enoch – that is a lovely compliment and a heavy responsibility. I give my best efforts during this time when we’re all traumatized to one degree or another to continue to live up to your generous assessment.

At this point if black women said “fuck all of yall” and boarded a spaceship and peaced out Id wish them nothing but the best, we dont deserve their presence on this planet

A white guy in his 50's from Florida? I’m shocked. Also shocked to see that he’s driving around in a van that is basically a Trump shrine. 

Can we admit that Paul Rudd has held up in a way that no other man his age has? 

Pass. Hard pass! 

Melania dress as woman who must do the work for the money.  Is very funny, because Melania no do the work.

I have trouble imaging what Cobain would’ve done if he’d lived, because it’s almost inconceivable of him surviving in any form for much longer than he did.  If not by his own hand, his heroin habit would’ve killed him not long after.  

Those shoes are the real crime. Platforms AND spiky 4" (or higher??) heels AND very thin straps at the toe box AND no counter-balancing ankle strap or even a sling back?? I am a skilled wearer of heels of all varieties, and I can tell you that those simply cannot be walked in. You’d have to keep your toes permanently…

Best case scenario probably would have been something like John Lydon’s path, wherein Cobain could have gotten into some other project to let him explore his weirder instincts and occasionally write sort of a sideways pop-hit, and show up on talk shows from time to time to say weird shit and be a gadfly. Middle-case…

Seconded by someone who got married at 25 and is still very happy to be so, 12 years and 3 kids later.

I’m not one for “what if” games, but the whole “if Kurt lived” / Grohl / Foo Fighters is a good head-scratcher. I’m guessing a Beatles - George Harrison situation where Dave has all of these songs and ideas, and finally has enough and says I’m outta here.

If John Mayer would just make the music he’s capable of making (and he’s a hell of a guitarist - very bluesy) and not worry about writing songs that might get him laid...

Why would I want to be with someone who has been with hundreds of women? I would be afraid that he wouldn’t even remember my name afterwards. If you’re going to fuck a star, make it a hard star to fuck, and make it memorable for everyone involved. Have some fucking pride in your work.

I don’t think Nirvana would have lasted if Kurt was still alive. Dave Groul said the band nearly broke up at one point because Kurt wanted more royalties instead of it being split 3 way (Rumor is Courtney Love was a large driving force behind that).

You’d have read somewhere that he was on Celebrity Big Brother 6 and you’d have gone “Oh yeah, I remember him, thank God Dave Grohl got out from under that train wreck,” which is what I say every time I think of Kurt Cobain anyway.

I believe Michael Stipe said Kurt wanted more acoustics on the next record and he was gonna help record. Supposed to be more like Unplugged. If he would have gone that route then hed have a better chance at longevity, I imagine. No band can appeal to the angsty teens forever.

Related: Radiohead’s OK Computer feels more relevant to me now than it did in ‘96. Maybe its just because I’m firmly in my middle age, but Fitter Happier and Let Down hit me haaaarrrrd everytime I listen to them

Would he be a Thom Yorke or a Billy Corgan?

“the far superior Live Through This by Hole”

Remember when Jada Pinkett Smith put on 40 lbs because of Vicki Gunvalson
