My neighbors usually play some LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS BASS-DOMINATED ‘MUISC’ that, fortunately, I can usually drown out with, say, the soundtrack to The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou played at a reasonable level. (Which I will probably play again today after that awful Creed … thing? … video? … is over.)
Today, I came home from drinking and working on my novel at the local sports bar and they were playing “Low Rider” by War.
Sweet.
Usually the music my neighbors play is much like that awful Creed music.
Yuck.
I join you in your crusade to shame all white people in denouncing Creed.
Truly, these guys are a high point in Western Civilization.
My only Creed-related question is what’s with the guy sniffing the fish on the My Sacrifice video on the earlier thread? Is that one of the sacraments?
Maybe we should leave teh “overnight thread” and the “rock on”s to Atrios. Sometimes I have no idea what it is I’m watching over there, but it rarely sucks this hard.
Is this video supposed to be teh ghey pr0n? Because it looks pretty gay. But the gay videos over on xtube are a lot better than this. Not that I would watch stuff like that, but I’ve heard that anyway. Yeah, that’s it.
…here I thought the 21st century was all about dashed hopes and resigning oneself to universal suckage.
So far, it is. But I think it may take a few decades before the 21st really finds its voice, and that we’re currently living in a time when people are trying to make the 21st century be a crappy sequel – 20th Century II: After History’s End or something.
The 21st may end up being a major shitpile, but maybe not. And even if it does, I think it will be a whole new type of shitpile whose nuts and corn and tapeworms take forms we cannot even imagine!
Well I’m relieved to find out that it was wordpress that was eating my postings rather than being banned for not having anything productive to post about the Hillary campaign. I’m also relieved that I’ve been able to maintain my ignorance of all things Creed this week, despite strong odds.
Now lets ‘just see if this slips thru when I hit submit……..
OK. Delete cookies and lets see if it works on the second try….
OK. Maybe on the third…. Remember to copy…. Christ this sucks.
Hey liberals guess what? Everything I said last night about me being a liberal and all, I was lying I’m a Conservative bwahahahahahahahahaha! I do really agree with Conservatives about abortion and homosexuality. However I also agree with Conservatives on health care, taxes, immigration, welfare, guns, the death penalty, and the war on terrorism. You liberal fools fell for it. I had you believing I was a liberal all a long. Man you leftists are niave.
Omigosh, you mean that our conservative ‘tard troll Matt McMahon was, in actually, in point of fact, a conservative ‘tard troll? Who could have foreseen this turn of events?!
So, do you think they actually held a mirror in front of him through the whole video shoot so he could preen, or does he have sufficient imagination to just make it seem that way?
Lesley,
I saw a chunk of that the other night. Terrifying, really, in that I had figured that they just really didn’t give a rat’s ass rather than being completely, hopelessly stupid and trying to do something.
Little Matty,
Ooooh, you rascal, you. You had us all fooled. Now, you go hide, and we’ll count to thirty…
That little trill must be the most godawful lead line I’ve ever heard.
I’m sure the psuedo-Jesus pose is sacraligeous, and the turning aside from women? What’s wrong with the man? Some of my best friends are women (and sex is a lot of fun anyway)
Just think, ten years from now, Creed is just going to be part of a line-up of bad videos, just like the bad video wars from the 70′s/80′s we did some weeks ago.
1:10 … which was about seventy seconds too long.
I actually thought that this was an ad.
Not really a glowing point in one’s favour, overall.
Boy, that Matt!
Sure fooled the pants off US, huh?
Yeah – gosh darn it, don’t WE look foolish. Of course, the fact that basically noone really bought into your schtick detracts NOTHING from your ninja-like stealth & cunning. Yep. WE sure look childish & stupid, don’t WE.
Please please PLEASE tell me McCain’s just hired you to work on his campaign this fall. See, Matt, the truth is, I’m secretly a neo-con just like you, & I really REALLY want him to win over that scary black guy or the Clinton lady … & I know if he uses the skill & subterfuge of someone with your (now conclusively proven) innate genius, ol’ John-Boy’s gonna take 2008 in a walk! Ssssh, don’t tell the others about “our little secret” Matt, it’d blow our cover!
So, do you think they actually held a mirror in front of him through the whole video shoot so he could preen, or does he have sufficient imagination to just make it seem that way?
He is doing a whole lot of Zoolander there, ain’t he? BLUE THUNDER!
Hate the band, but I always liked the “circle of life” or “bullet time” shots they used. I think it was the first time I saw that technique.
This blog seems to get a great deal of visitors. How do you get traffic to it? It offers a nice unique twist on things. I guess having something real or substantial to say is the most important thing.
