From some wierd discussion we had in 'The Legacy':
Sweet fancy Moses... I said that stuff only 2 months ago, and already forgot? I mean, when I read that quote, I remembered saying that. But until I read it, I had no idea.
Listen, here's the deal ... and this is something that I think the regulars know by now, so let's just call this fair warning to all n00bs.
I am almost always entirely full of shit, and not to be believed.
There are two
vital exceptions:
1. When I specifically state that I am speaking
as a moderator. I don't joke about that job.
2. When I am
talking about music in a more-or-less serious tone of voice.
But when I talk about monkeys and tail-picking and any of that other random nonsense, I'm obviously being so stupid that even I don't bother to remember what I'm saying. In fact, by the time I click "post", I've probably forgotten what I'm posting.
I mean, I could be talking about how dumb the news media is here. There was a story on the local news about pine beetles harming trees. The commercial for the news had the caption: "Beatles Harming Trees". IDIOTS! Beetles are insects. The Beatles were a band with 3 cool guys, and Paul McCartney.
I have a theory about bassists named Paul. Sometimes, they're cool. They have good ideas. Like: while recording a song called "Hey Bullfrog", just starting to bark like a dog in the studio for no reason, leading to the song being re-done as "Hey Bulldog". But most of the time, bassists named Paul are better off ignored, and their silly ideas disregarded. Never trust anything that you hear from a bassist named Paul.
I don't want to work; I just want to bang on the drum all day.
I am compiling the official list of Superhumanly Badass Dudes. As we all know, Adrian Smith is on that list. LooseCannon has rightfully pointed out that Lemmy is also on that list. And last week in the chatroom, I inducted Denver mayor John Hickenlooper into the club. I now formally announce the newest member of the Superhuman Badass Dudes: Yul Brynner.
I don't want to play; I just want to bang on the drum all day.
Perun has instructed us to remain off-topic in this thread. I'm doing my best. For example, I will inform you that when typing the first sentence of this paragraph, I briefly misspelled a word as "tipoc". Which reminds me of the name of Tupac Shakur, which reminds me further of the guy who once told me that he knew Tupac's mother many many years ago before Tupac became famous. But I think he was full of shit. I don't believe he knew Tupac's mother. At least, further investigation of the available evidence suggests that it was unlikely, since they lived on opposite sides of the USA. Why do people lie about things like that?
For example, I've been told that I once met Ted Nugent. It supposedly happened back in 1993, when I was so drunk that I don't remember anything. Nugent was touring with Damn Yankees, and I do know that I was partying at the hotel he was staying at after playing a show in Madison, Wisconsin. So I can say that we were at least in the same building that night. I've been told that I met him in the hallway and made an ass of myself. But I don't personally remember it happening, so I don't tell people I met Nugent, even though it
might have happened. You should trust such as statement as much as if it came from a bassist named Paul - which is to say, not at all.
Lies! All lies! Vicious, cruel lies! I shall have my revenge!
Editor's note: no, you shall not.

In the English language, there are "legal" and "illegal" combinations of letters. For example, we know that "rgsjoqq" is not a word because that combination of letters is illegal. But what about all the legal combinations that aren't words? In particular, why isn't "flarpong" a real word? It's a legal combination. I wonder what a flarpong might be. I bet it was part of the earliest internal combustion engines, but was quickly eliminated because it wasn't necessary. Kind of like the human appendix. I wonder if my car would get better fuel efficiency if I re-installed the flarpong. Hey, I bet that's a scam by the auto manufacturers! They're in cahoots with the oil companies! They took away our flarpongs to make us pay more for gas!
