Greetings fellow glibs.
Instead of the usual old people music (NTTAWWT), I thought it might be fun to share some of my tastes in music.
For this selection, I chose cover songs, because I think cover songs are fun. Also, vocals from pretty girls because they’re nice to look at. If the glibs are entertained, then I might put together more selections.
First up: Misterwives – Riptide (COVER) by Vance Joy
Unfortunately, I only became aware of this group shortly after they played a show in my town. I will be sure to not miss the next one.
[~4m]
Heard of the HAIM sisters? I don’t know why I’m asking, it doesn’t matter. Here’s the next song.
HAIM cover Shania Twain ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’ for Like A Version
[~5m]
Yeah, I like pop music. Fight me.
Green Light – LORDE | Alex Goot & SAINTE Cover
[~3m]
Last but not least, Glibs’ favorite youtuber: POPPY! (accompanied by a bunch of hipsters)
KIDS / MGMT / HEYHIHELLO
[~3.5m]
no Love for Hey Joe?
HIT IT!
That’s quite excellent.
Those marxists really know how to step together.
I’m sure you’ve seen Roy Buchanan’s version.
Yeah, of course. Saw him live a few times. Sad life, that guy.
man shape his goatee like that, you know he got problems
yay: finally, an Amazon ad instead of an election ad….exhausted already
Ad?
at YouTube: your video will start in 30 seconds
Must be a bug
/adblock
uBlock origin could be your friend, my friend
blocks video bits at YouTube before desired stream begins?
I’m willing to learn but figured their gambit was unavoidable
Yes, I don’t see those. I forgot that even existed.
I use adblock plus and don’t see YT ads. Seems like of folks prefer uBlock origin (?) though.
Lower overhead.
Yeah, I made the switch maybe last year. I don’t notice any performance improvement but I definitely notice that it’s much more effective at blocking shit.

Wait… who’s the cover of?
Smokey playing with The Feelin’, a Minneapolis guy who used to play at a local bar right down the street from me with one of my friends Cheech.

Another cover of The Feelin’ from the Voice.

How about a banjo played outside the US. And on Country Road no less.
https://youtu.be/G4FUjD_N8YU
Full disclosure this group plays all kind if stuff. Pictures of covers and originals and they all play multiple instruments.
This isn’t my favorite of theirs, but shocked this song traveled so far.
Best “Country Roads” cover.
Everything works in reggae. Next thing you’ll tell a certain famous Clapton song does too…
/scratches head
I guess there’s a joke here as Clapton was covering a reggae tune but Toots link I posted is the cover.
Them Central Europeans love some country music. This group has been on the circuit for years.

This Central Euro girl band (sisters plus mom) has been on the country music circuit over there for years. Long playlist but here is one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZvpHwoQfqk&list=PLw0FsinHFcB0_YEdfq9xke2xahg2jlrid
Again, wow. I had no idea how American culture had spread. I should have
Wow. Just.. wow.

And who will be posting William Shatner doing Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds?
I’ll stick with Common People, thanks.
I don’t believe I’ve heard that. I’ll consider myself blessed.
OMG it’s amazing.
That is amazing!
Not.
Since someone asked.
Oh yeah, the Lucy one is terrible.
The video is hilarious, though.
Yes, that was actually really impressive for a fan video.

The HAIM sisters did a great cover but Shania still wins the hotness factor.
I’ll allow it
I don’t recognise this Sock.
Right? It’s a Tulpa!
Grab its fuckin pussy !
Uh, have we identified a gender that has a pussy? You could be grabbing a handful of “WHOA!!!”.
Reposted from the last thread because I stupidly didn’t see the new thread up:
Portland police won’t stop criminal thugs from rioting in downtown, but they’re happy to issue illegal orders:
Actually a law was broken, when that sergeant used his badge and office backed up by the threat of lethal force to illegally demand that they lock up their firearms. Fuck you popo.
Bethesda still does not want my money.
To elaborate – I have enough launchers/digital ditribution platforms installed, I don’t want any more. Especially given the number of times the individual platforms are shit performance and security wise.
It is basically the last straw of things that make me not shell out for this product.
Steam and, shudder, Occulus and nothing else. And for Occulus I manually start and stop all the services.
If I can’t direct download it or get it on Steam I’m done. And I fought Steam for years until I gave in.
I’ve been with steam since Sept 18 2003. (According to my steam profile). I didn’t like it back then. But I’ve adapted. My investment there is too high to break away, but I really don’t want more distribution platforms to hunt through for my games.
damn! Dec 2004 here.
although pre-steam we were playing HL:Opposing Force on LAN. At one time, I was quite skilled at CS.
That’s when I bought HL2, so a lot of people were probably introduced to Steam around that time.
Feb 17 2004 myself. Originally I also thought it was terrible. But with higher bandwidth, and the Steam sales, I’m a fan now. I’ve got a small library that’s been built up with GoG, but that’s mostly retro games I already owned, just with a wrapper so they can play on modern machines.
April 11 2010 here. I don’t think I heard of Steam until 08 or so. And I went Mac in 06 so Steam wasn’t available until 2010 IIRC because I recall knowing of it by then and quickly installing it because gaming on a Mac sucked hard*.
*PS. Gaming on a Mac still sucks – largely because of developer indifference – but I’m not a big gamer so fuck it.
pffft! a MAC?!
/points at Rhywun, “hey everyone look at the PHONY”
😉
I’ve been on the Windows side of the personal computers for most of my life. The few times I’ve tried to go the Apple route, I have been unimpressed. Of course, I also enjoy building my own machines, so I am probably not a good sample.
I work on Windows. I learned my craft on Windows. I just wanted something different – because I hate Windows.
Also, I have no interest in building shit.
I gave in long ago and went all in an steam and forsake all other platforms. There’s more than enough there to fill the ever decreasing amount of time i spend gaming.
I should look into trying to obtain employment at Valve, they seem cool.
Online game? Yeah, not surprised.
They recently held a publicity event where they let some chosen people play the game and take the footage back. I watched some of it, and found I was irritated to no end every time I saw another player on the screen, let alone the vitriol the ‘events’ raised. A lot of the problems could be solved with a pirvate moddable server… but they just seem to want to keep giving me the finger.
I don’t really know that scene at all – I only play single-player games.
Fallout is Supposed to be a single-player game.
The new one? Huh, yeah fuck that. The article made it sound like an online game. Wait a couple years and maybe they’ll uncripple it for Steam.
76 is an online game.
That’s strikes 1-4.
Nope, Fallout ’76 is supposed to be multiplayer by its very nature. I have no idea what the fuck Bethesda is thinking with that.
Ah, I see. You mean you want it to be a single-player game. Clearly it’s going to be an entirely different experience so I would hold off anyway.
Here’s the thing.
Fallout 1, 2, BoS, 3, NV, Shelter and 4 are all 100% single player where the player had a large impact on the world (except shelter, which was a phone game). Making 76 multiplayer requires giving up a lot of the expected elements of the series.
Agreed. I had the same reaction to Elder Scrolls Online (was that a success?). The various entities running SimCity and Myst into the ground tried the same thing and they were complete failures. Did I mention I don’t like online/multiplayer games?
Elder Scrolls online is still running, so it’s partially a success. But IIRC, they went to the buy once, no monthly fee model less then 6 months after release. They’re still selling expansions, but I don’t know of anyone playing it.
I stopped at FO:NW and Skyrim. Although I put a lot of time into both, mostly with mods, I have little interest in subsequent FO and TES games if they continue the same gameplay. Was FO:4 offer anything other than just more of the same? Someone referred to FO as “look down and press E simulator” and that’s pretty apt imo.
/shrug *goes back to playing KF2 and isometric rpgs*
Actually, it’s about time I give my gaming rig a nice rebuilt, and get some new games.
I trust that’s New Vegas (which was the second best Fallout game). I figure I can hold off on rebuilding my gaming PC until I catch up on my Steam backlog a bit.
Yeah, NV*
Tired and a few beers in, lotsa typos! 🙂
Play Fallout 2 if you’re willing to go retro. Once it got it’s patches in place it’s the best Fallout game by far.
Old school gamer here, yes I played the shit out of FO1 & FO2. I agree with you. Maybe it was just a time & place in my life, but little has filled the joy I had from playing FO2, a top ranked PC game for me. Generally my hands were in most PC games of that era.
But are you an OG: Original Gamer or the Old School Master?
/This would work better if YouTube wasn’t down.
New Vegas? The Land of Invisible walls?
As I said, second best. Of course I haven’t played 4 yet, I’m still waiting for the GOTY version to come out. From the ones I’ve played:
FO:2 – FO:NV – FO:1 – FO:BOS – FO:3
“But thou must” is worse then any invisible walls.
I’m not going to sugarcoat it. 4 is mediocre.
I just have vivid memories of hours spent trying to find a route over/through the mountains because of the field of deathclaws in my way before ending up back on the plot rails.
See, Fallout 1 had certain paths that if you walked into, you would be killed by the random encounters. So I was used to paths that were ungodly dangerous. And playing FO:NV enough, I learned paths through the Deathclaw fields.
I took that as a sign of poor design “We pretend to be a sandbox, but we’re not – get on the rails, stupid player” was the message I got.
I understand that complaint completely. To me it comes across more of a safe area (controlled by civilization a bit) vs. dangerous area (no towns), which works in the Fallout world. Playing some of the older games you get a real feel for how much game design has changed in the decades. As an example, no modern game will have you miss saving a mouse in a random background event.
LOL. I would never tolerate that kind of crap today, but we all seemed to enjoy it back in the day, didn’t we.
already did a FO4 playthrough, now going through again with mods, doing lots of building. I downloaded a mod that added a new companion named Ash (yeah Evil Dead reference by them) so I just built him the cabin from Evil Dead for his own little homestead.
I prefer FO3 to NV. The NV setting is more traditional, but 3 captures the classic feel, monsters, characters better than NV – and the change of scenery was very interesting.
Would love to see the BoS mid-western setting recaptured – with the vehicles and multiple different urban environments.
I will pick up 4 eventually – may get an xbox one this holiday season. Definitely other games on that system I want…and my 10 yr old Xbox360 won’t last forever- even if I am mostly still satisfied [re]playing games on the current system.
A lot of the enjoyment of the titles comes from just faffing about. So if that’s not fun to you, I can understand not being interested.
Maybe it’s the fear of having fun and thus clocking another 400+ hours. Probably would have fun with it, who am I kidding? Especially with the joy of mods.
This is a great cover that they failed to acknowledge.

Kirsten Dunst – Turning Japanese (HD)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0X3CLJVMJU
In the current year, this is what we call “problematic”
In too many ways to count it is problematic. First time I saw it I just about fell off the chair. Of course I remember when the original came out and was on MTV.
I’ll be in my bunk. Again.
I call it “would”
Has anyone ever told the girl that the song is about whacking off?
It is? I thought it was about smoking pot.
Nope.
Nope what? Nope it is not about smoking pot, or nope it is not about masturbation? If it is true it is about masturbation, well then Kirsten has the best version.
It’s about spanking the monkey. Very much about the squinty eyes and prominent teeth. It couldn’t be recorded today.
It’s twu! It’s twu!
Where’s YouTube for a clip when you need it?!
Well, ‘Turning Japanese’ is orgasm (getting squinty eyed at that moment) not sure it’s about self pleasure perse, although Blister in the Sun is totally about that.
It’s about a guy missing his girlfriend and jacking off to her photo. And yes, getting so squinty eyed while he’s jacking so hard, he’s starting to look Japanese. He wants a doctor to take a picture of her from inside her vagina as well. Pretty dirty and offensive song that you’re right, could never be made today, but it sure had a great hook musically, a very catchy tune from the golden age of power pop.
A list of cover songs with no Me First and the Gimme Gimmes or Richard Cheese. It is a failure. Of course, I just got back from Fat Head’s Jameson’s Caskmates event, which has some amazingly good pairings that were insane. They paired Caskmates Stout edition with their Head Hunter IPA, and the Caskmates IPA (Irish Pale Ale) with their Bumbleberry Blueberry Honey ale.
Covers? I’ve never even heard the originals of any of those. I appreciate the talent, but just not my cup of tea.
Here’s one of my favorite cover songs.
Yellowman did a decent cover of Country Roads
I always liked this cover
Technically a cover That was horibbly covered by some eighties band:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyQ-tScuzwM
Maybe my favorite cover:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntp_NkatrHQ
This whole album is bad the fuck assed. Do yourself a favor and listen to “sky high” I love that song.
It’s a traditional Irish song from the 17th century or so.
Yup. Thin Lizzy woke it up a bit for the younger folks and then Mettalica made it sound every other song they’ve ever done….
But it goes up to 11!
Hated Thin Lizzy’s version and hate Metallica’s even more.
How about the movie where teenage superheroes go to school at Sky High?
Kurt Russel movies can never be shit, they can only be not good.
I have a film degree. So you what I say about about movies is true, it’s the law.
::Looks over documents::
Huh…his story checks out.
Carry on.
That was intended to be a response to CPRM’s claim….dammit.
Replying-how does it work?
Sir Digby has a sad.
Metallica’s version sucks but Thin Lizzy’s is good.
More Whisky In The Jar, and I’d almost bet it’s not the one you think it is.
And now a link
Thin Lizzy’s version of “Whiskey in the Jar” is a good one.
Some Jeff Healey love.
Jeff Healey was awesome. Maybe him and Lou Reed will do a duet one day.
With Bowie !
Hey, our avatars are flipping each other off!
I hate you so much for reminding me of that crap.
There’s also Ministry covers once Youtube comes back up.
Youtube comes back up.
You can blame me. I had a shit-ton of “Forgotten Weapons” videos queued up since I haven’t looked at his channel in about five weeks.
Oh well, off to read then go to bed. It’ll be fixed in the morning.
Umm… twitter users are stating Youtube is down.
I too am having problems.
Which one of you broke it?!
Thought it was only me. YouTube was having trouble yesterday too.
After YouTube offered paid services a loti of Japanese music was geoblocked. It’s better now, but I still occasionally get blocked content and I’m too cheap to pay for a fast VPN and it is pain on mobile.
Do you run into issues for US content?
All the time. Usually with pro sports content.
Tres. It has to be Tres.
RUSSIANS HAXORD MUH AKOUNTZ!
Bitchute FTW.
I was late reading afternoon links and it was broke on SP’s links, but this was after your post so I think it is your fault.
YouTube just wasn’t prepared for all twelve Glibs (and 200 Tupas) trying to find their favorite version of Louie Louie at the same time. (It’ the Kinks)
200 Tulpas (I laughed)
201, Tulpa.
knew that was coming
im only 1/1024 tulpa
do I still count?
Glibs are nothing, if not predictable.
Sorry, been watching Youtube the last hour, what were you asking?
I’m calling shenanigans.
No, I was, but now it is down. Fuck me. No DVR, no youtube. What the fuck am I supposed to do, talk to people?!
Animate some Hat and Hair?
Can’t get trump audio withouth the youtubes!
I said animate, not voice synch. Practice your walk cycles, squash and stretch, anticipation and follow through.
That sounds like working on my day off…what are you some kind of commie!?
Time to turn Japanese?
pornhub is still functioning….
/heard from a friend
Holy shit, it IS down.
On a side note, I overheard one of my co-workers say to a customer on the phone, “I think the Internet is full right now“.
The tubes are clogged.
The whole world was listening to ARS , ’till it broke.
BUT, Frampton’s version of “Black hole sun” has to be the thread winner here….
Oh, and check out Prince at the rock and roll hall of fame covering “While my guitar gently weeps” strong second
Wow, yeah. That Prince solo was fucking amazing.
Frampton covered Soundgarden?
You tube’s back. check it out.
Sorry, not back
alright, check it out, the cover to end them all….

So, my DVR took a shit. Not only did it have the shows I haven’t caught up on yet, but also recordings from when things I worked on aired. Lost memories. Maybe there is a way to salvage some stuff off the HD.
I’ve had great luck with a program called File Scavenger. I’ve had the paid version for about 8 years and it has saved the info from several dead drives so far.
I need something like this, too. But, damn that’s a sketchy looking website. Promise it’s on the up-and-up anonymous internet person?
The website looks like it is from 1997 but I’ve been using their products for years and I am quite satisfied. There is a neutered free version if you want to give it a go. It will find the same stuff as the paid version but won’t let you recover anything over (I think) 250kb. I’ve had 2 failed drives on which this didn’t work; the Disk Recoup product brought 1 of them back to a state where File Scavenger worked but the other just makes a grinding sound when powered up. But, yeah, I wholeheartedly recommend File Scavenger.
Thanks! I have over 200 albums ripped onto a drive that crapped out. Maybe I can get them back. I’ll give it a try.
Well, I know how to recover files from a HD, but I’ve never worked with a DVR HD before, I don’t know what format anything is even in.
Well since YT is down and upthread we were discussing PC games:
What game(s) are you folks currently playing?
I just finished XCOM2 w/ The Long War Mod. Enjoying it thoroughly. Not sure what I will start next.
DORK ALERT
Carry on.
*clocks westernsloper over the top of the head with a bomber of beer*
We’re cool here.
You know who else didn’t like video games?
ISIS?
Hank Hill?
I actually like video games but am not even cool enough to play them on my computer. I used my Xbox more for a streaming platform than gaming but its ability to connect to wifi died so I just gave up. The other day I noticed the hard drive was just spinning away so assumed the wifi not connecting was just a ruse and it was hacked and spreading fake Russian news over my fiber connection to sway the upcoming midterms. So I unplugged it and put it in a metal box surrounded by old car batteries.
Kevin Flynn after 1982?
I’ve been trying the Bard’s Tale 4 (but it needs some polish through patches), and decided to finally finish Divinity Original Sin before starting D:OS2 Definitive.
I’m trying hard to avoid buying the War of the Chosen with the new (free) DLC, because I know I’ll play the hell out of it.
Nothing’s really grabbing my attention lately.
Cribbage and Backgammon.
Lawn jarts and meth.
Yo…I got some dope jarts, legit from the 60s, still in the box
I’ll give you seven, no eight. eight Meth for them.
Hey! That’s my meth. Whaddaya doing?
Careful man. Those lawn darts will kill you.
Followed up by Solitaire. Seriously, if I play video games these days, those are the three.
I need to learn how to play cribbage. Mostly just because I see all these cool-ass cribbage boards for sale at different places. If I’m going to start a collection of cribbage boards, I should at least be able to play the damn game, right?
It’s easy Like all the classic games though, the rules are simple but it can take a lifetime to master.
Awesome! Thanks for that.
*clicks tutorial mode*
Said it above, FO4 with mods. I’m a few games back on the Assassin’s Creed games, I’m only like two levels into Syndicate.
Maybe this was already covered, but just flat out not answer a charge of treason? IDGAF who wins that race, but that response was cringy to say the least.
Not that I recall. WTF??
“My opponent is trying to make this campaign about me. That’s not what elections are about, it’s about the team. So what if I called you all methheads and said deserters can join enemy forces, what really matters is that DONALD TRUMP!”
Ah, the same chick who trashed her constituents. The moderators don’t seem interested in hearing her explain that away either.
I’m pretty sure it’s the same chick, don’t care to check, but it’s the internet so feel free to take me at my word.
Enh, it’s one of those mostly rectangular states on the other side of the country so IDGAF either.
*narrows gaze*
Cringy? It was kind of fricken creepy. “She is trying to make this race about me, but it’s about all Arizonans” WTF? Your the one running you dolt. It is all about you.
McSally was throwing out some neo con charges. “Why you protest the war!”. Still, you have to answer for saying it’s fine to fight for the Taliban and can’t just Stepford wife your way out of it.
McSally was definitely the establishment pick for that seat. I am drawing a blank and too lazy to look but there was a better candidate there but she was not the R’s pick so AZ got McSally. McSally is still better than a fuck nut crazy prog.
Stepford wife for sure. Damn that chick is creepy. And even on her canned bullshit “answer” she was still peeking down at the script.
Would.
Low intellect turns me off more than growths that should be gnawed off by rats.
She’s libertarianing the wrong way.
And due to her bingo-wings? Only maybe would.
Covers Suck, make your own music, fucking Poser…..
Oi, some of us are so pasty white that we can make bands go off rhythm. And the best covers add something to the original. Johnny Cash’s Hurt is better then Nine Inch Nails version.
Even the lead singer of NIN admitted Johnny Cash owned “Hurt” after listening to the cover. It is superb.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt1Pwfnh5pc
Yeah, when I heard Cash’s cover I just thought how horrible it would have felt to have an 80yr old man do better than me on the best thing I’d ever done. Made me feel sad for Resner. Then I got drunk and enjoyed the song.
Nah. They can be an homage.

OT: But this could be (should be) a breaking national story tomorrow.
Women Exposed by Heitkamp Ad Form Group to Explore Litigation
The number is now up to 22 women who were identified as sexual assault survivors in a political ad without their permission (and some aren’t even victims). If Heidi had any chance (and she likely didn’t) after voting no on Kav, she’s toast now.
Well, it is possible the ad referred to other women of the same name. HAhahah, they probably just pulled out a phone book from 36 years ago and picked random women, like the Terminator.
I would have linked to a youtube video of the scene, but, you know…
I know you’re just joking, but this is kind of funny after your comment:
https://i0.wp.com/www.sayanythingblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/lexi.png?ssl=1
Well, as far as I know, I’m the only person with my name, but there is a guy who spells the first name different that has the same first and last as me.
Also, as we’re nerds who like to point out Johnos, “There are so many woman on this list including myself that have been victims of sexual adult”
Are you suffering from sexual adult. Here’s one trick to fix it that you won’t believe!
I’m not even close to the only one of my name. I have two cousins with the same first and last. And those of you who’ve been here for a while and have good memories know there’s also someone famous with my name as well. Or…I guess I have his name.
To clarify; when I said “kind of funny”, I was referring only to her having a unique name. What happened to her is horrible.
“Some people who are lawyers would say the worst thing you can do if you’re worried about lawsuits is admit culpability or negligence and I’m admitting it right here,” she told me.
See, I’m doing the worst thing I can do. Vote for me.
I think she knows she’s sunk, so now its just pandering and hoping for anything.
Her base is well known for accepting apologies and moving on. Srsly, outing people who aren’t even victims is the lowest stunt I’ve seen this cycle.
Oops. Forgot about this.
You saw my birthday card !
The fuck is that?
The love note he left his ex?
Probably BS, but who knows? Here.
And Tres > CPRM. Turning the joke yourself FTW.
That makes me think false-flag…by probably an idiot.
Im with Mike.

LOL.
Ya know, I dont do IT, programming, coding, or any of that stuff. But I have run a business. So I have to ask- how many people at YouTube/Google are shitting their pants now ?
None, only old people believe in pants man. Just Donald Duck it. It’s cool.

Because we have a thread dedicated to cover songs? Probably not too many. Maybe a few.
“University Faculty Member Secretly Records Conservative Students, Doxxes Them On Twitter
The University of Washington seems to have a real problem with privacy and ethics.
When teaching assistant Rebecca Ferber saw three conservative students eating lunch and discussing politics, she began recording them. She then posted a photo of their face on Twitter and asked her followers what she should throw at them: a “water bottle,” her “entire backpack,” or her “insides.” The latter won by a large margin, according to the College Fix.
Chevy Swanson, the third student present at the lunch and president of the UW College Republicans, filed a complaint against Ferber with the school at UW President Ana Mari Cauce’s encouragement.
Rantz said he confirmed that the school was investigating the complaint, even though UW spokesman Victor Balta said the university could not “discuss any ongoing complaint or confirm that one is underway.”
This is not UW’s only problem with privacy violations. Just a few weeks ago, UW students created a website to anonymously accuse men — students or not — of sexual assault without any verification.”
https://www.dailywire.com/news/37203/university-faculty-member-secretly-records-ashe-schow
So pussys to the left and pussys to the right, but narry a man or woman to be found.
Finally…..
And now back to my regularly scheduled program .
Oh, now that youtube is back up, not a cover, but Johnny Cash about politics.
Cover song
Jordan Peterson just tweeted that Trump should pay Warren the million bucks. Taking the high road. (Fake news)
I think he should to, but put on the memo line ‘if I sign this I won’t ever work for the government ever again’.
That’d work. Maybe donate a million bucks to the “blankets for native americans foundation”.
or The Human Fund – “Money for People”
No that’s a bridge too far, make it out to a really good sounding charity, but also add onto that memo line ‘I’m a fake Indian HOW!’
What was the exact wager? From what I’ve heard if Trump doesn’t pay he’d be a welcher in my book. She took the test and she’s got Indian blood. You got to be careful when making bets, the conditions set can make all the difference. I would think Trump would know this, so maybe he had hedged his wager’s wording, but I haven’t heard such.
Yeah, if everything is on the level he definitely needs to pull some change out of the couch cushions and throw it at that charity she found online this morning.
So it comes down to “what is an Indian”.
It will be interesting.
My ‘little brother’ (no relation, no pederasty, just raised as siblings) is the darkest skinned of all his injun brotheren, but he is of different tribes. So he doesn’t get the government dole for that. While all his lighter skinned brothers and sisters do because they are of one tribe. This is stupid fucking shit.
Agreed.
I’m a whitebread motherfucker. I have a cousin black as night adopted from Haiti when he was 3 and I was six. My liberal aunt spoiled his ass, he didn’t ever get disciplined. When he was 16 and my aunt thought she couldn’t control him anymore she shipped him off to live with my conservative parents who forced him to get his GED. He’s in prison now. Guess which one of those variables my aunt doesn’t attribute that to.
I guess he has a case with the ‘show’s you’re an Indian’ clause, I’m not sure how you determine that, one drop? great great great grandparent? Mother lived in a tepee? He may not be a welcher but he’d be a weaselly quibbler at least.
Whoa Whoa! I’m fine with with being racist against the jews, spics, brits, krauts, chinks, japs, redmen, messicans, injuns, javans, negroes, hawaiians, poloks, slavs, ragheads, peruvians, chileans, brazillians, eskimos, carribeaners, and all else; but racism against the Welsh!? That I will not stand for!
A man with standards. I salute you.
What about the Irish? Don’t want them, do ya?
Chafed is racist against the Irish!
Well, I noticed they weren’t in your list, so….
Prairie Shit.
Throw a brotha a link?
I’m kidding. Making a joke on his “Kavanaugh should resign if he’s confirmed”.
Nah. There were other conditions. She has to be the nominee, and Trump administers the test. Technically, he doesn’t owe nuthin to nobody.
War Pigs, covered by Slaves on Dope
And by Faith No More
And by Cake
And wow, The Cake version makes the lyrics really work and become more of a focus than any other version.
Better than that stupid bicycle song.
The cake cover is sweet.
I’ll take the Cake, but not Faith No More.
Truly the best cover of WP, in my worthless opinion.
WTF??? I am, of course, referring to the FNM cover.
Cake if fine and dandy, but ya’ll can suck it.
Knowing that you gave me money is all the faith I need to ignore my own ideas, and embrace everything you believe as fact #politicing
So, what you’re saying is that my opinion isn’t “worthless”…
Man, I knew I’d make the big time at some point!
Your opinion isn’t worthless, it is however only worth as much as you pay me. You’re always right! (until you stop paying me, then you are an evil that needs to be cleansed from the earth)
So, apparently, I’m equal to the Penis, at that point.
/No one tell Zardoz, please.
Just to be clear, you’re the one the called yourself a dick. (although I did use the whiteman’s tricknology)
God, I love tricknology.
And, by the way, I’m no baby
To that my only response is ljghwetfghsaudghsuadhasdfhjasdf. I may have had a bit too much to drink.
3000. introverts in the dance club.
Ludacris was here on Friday. Tonight….he is not.
But free booze.
at this point I don’t even remember what ‘song’ Ludacris got famous for. I just remember it came out when I was 18 and the chick I was into at the time liked it, so I did to.
He is at the playing Vegas point in his career. Which isnt a bad place to be.
I fucked up, I did the ‘Playing Vegas’ bit first smdh!

Ramones doing “California Sun”
From Dan Carlin’s SuperNova in the East podcast. Carlin claims that Chiang Kai Shek may have the record for most communists and communist sympathizers killed. Here. Uh, you may have forgotten about Stalin.
To be fair, I think starvation killed more communist sympathizers than any person /unintended consequences
That sickle wasn’t for harvesting wheat.
Who of you knew that guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter of Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan fame is now a noteworthy expert on ICBMs? Heard that today. The stuff you learn on morning drive radio.
Now? how about for the last 25 years?
/Why am I awake?
And before I forget this morning, two good Wire covers – one by Minor Threat, one by Big Black.
