Yup, que

Apparently, I saw COC before Pepper was in the band. I don’t really remember it, but I sent my cousin the link to this because he loves them.

Well, I used to spend part of my summers with him, over near Charlotte. We did see a bunch of shows because one of his cousins on the side I wasn’t related to worked for some promoter.

Anyway, I do remember seeing a show with him at this sketchy little venue there, and him just going batshit for the band, and I remember liking them, just not as much as him. But I’m damned if I can recall much else. Like, I kinda remember the parking lot, and a group of hot girls that were smoking outside, and the crowd being super high energy, but not really any specific songs or much more than the general vibe of the music.

He swears that was CoC, but he can’t remember which venue it was, or exactly what year, just that it was before Pepper because he was conflicted when he joined.

I’m thinking it had to be around 87, because we were pretty damn young, and I recall listening to Master of Puppets on the way there, talking about wanting to see Metallica play Orion live.

Which has almost nothing to do with this song, but it kinda bugs me that I don’t remember the show itself really.

I love the typo because it covers so many things at once

Queue as in they’re lining up to do it; cue, as in that’s their cue to be stupid; and que (spanish for what) as in what the fuck are they thinking?

Pfft, go fuck your wife. No, really, because this is the internet, and if you’ve got a wife, you already won the fight :)

But only if she freely consents, of course

Damn, I just like warm feet and ankles, but ngl, those do look fierce

Shit, if you think you’re mad now, wait until you run into someone that’s still running that line of bullshit in 2025

As a southern man, I absolutely love this meme

Damn, I can hear the wheezing from here

That’s a lotta fucking Newports

The fuck did anyone expect?

Plants love Brawndo!

Ahhh, the gICEtapo goes high tech

I fucking love Behemoth, and that is all I have to say

True, true

Don’t be disingenuous.

Horse shit.

Reading vs TV was a tired debate in the eighties. YouTube is no different than tv. Hell, in some ways, because it isn’t all controlled by oligarchs entirely, I would argue that it’s easier to find good things on YouTube than it ever was on broadcast or cable tv.

Also, ablist much? How about the blind and dyslexic? Are they fucked just because you don’t like that format?

Yeah, fuck YouTube as a platform, and fuck Google/alphabet, but don’t pretend to be the arbiter of entertainment.

So, sundar pinchai can be added to the list of CEOs that suck?

Because a lot of the time, it’s weird that when the company does nasty shit, nobody names him as the head asshole in charge the way that other companies and ceos get handled.

The dude has been in the driver’s seat for pretty much every major deterioration of Google/alphabet for years.

Ain’t that the truth!

If you got him talking about his art, you could end up in these long, deep conversations with him, and he was always just so damn nice.

I wish like hell the account I talked to him on the most didn’t get nuked during the protests. I can’t go back and revisit those conversations now.

The guy was just well rounded, smart, and as you said very down to earth.

It wouldn’t be accurate to call him a friend, but I liked him a lot. Like, if he had figured out where I live and had knocked on my door, I would have invited him in; there’s family members I don’t let in my door, and I’m paranoid as hell about strangers showing up uninvited.

I’m gonna argue with the title.

Obsolete means no longer of use, in a general sense.

Just because people don’t know that the tool is there, or don’t know how to apply it, doesn’t mean it’s obsolete. Hyphenation still has its original utility, it helps communicate in writing what is evident in speech.

I get what they mean, but the title is not accurate to the rest of the article, imo.

That’s what I wanna say, 128.
