My dear friends and I are planning a trip to Chicago in mid December. I looked up what sort of shows of the punk rock variety are happening in town on the days we are planning to be present.
Shellac is playing six times in those days. Holy holy holy shit.
EDIT: Tickets are super limited and only available AT the venue in advance. STRESSIN' |

| FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS: TASER vs. CRYBABY |

If this Kerry incident has confirmed anything to me it is that university students can be the most self-righteous, tactless, clueless, tunnel-visioned, knee-jerk reactionary people on the planet.
Did this fucking idiot really think he could steal the show by spouting off a bunch of dumbass accusations at a guy who is getting paid to speak to a shitload of people and not be ejected forcefully? He asked if Kerry was a member of skull and bones. Whether or not we have a right to know about that is completely irrelevant. Any fucking idiot knows you can't really expect a reasonable answer to that.
Getting tazed sucks, but it's not worth martyring people. Remember that VH1 reality show about D-list celebrities getting trained to be cops and they had to volunteer to get tazed? The only one that cried about it was Eric Estrada. The rest took it like champs.
But let's be economic about this, let's say we DO NOT want to get tazed. Being tazed is an undesirable outcome. Knowing this, let's go over a short list of things that could possibly get us tazed:
1) Interrupting a public speech with virulent accusations about secret societies phrased in a threatening way as "questions" while overstaying your floor time and refusing to stop when asked. Then flailing wildly while yelling when being subdued.
Ok. That might get you tazed. We don't want to get tazed. But let's weigh the pros and cons. What have we to gain from doing so? Here's a short list of possible positive outcomes.
1) Making a former presidential candidate stumble over his words in an attempt to answer your douchebag "questions" in front of a couple thousand people.
Is that worth the possibility of being tazed? If so, then by all means, but don't act amazed that you're being tazed when you act and then protest being ejected.
This kid played with fire. And then when the fire burned him went "WHY ARE YOU BURNING ME? DON'T BURN ME, BRO!"
Then university students step up again, of course. "WE ARE OUTRAGED THAT FIRE BURNS WHEN ONE PLAYS WITH IT."
So two police officers are suspended for essentially doing their job. I'm not a fan of cops. I think most cops are people that want authority without the hassle of going to college. Most are douches. But tazing douchebags that won't submit - that's protocol. Now two cops' lives are potentially ruined (assuming they are investigated and found to be doing something illegal, which is unlikely) and one douchebag got tazed once while getting his 15 minutes of fame and being martyred in the name of douchebags everywhere.
This kid now gets the right to walk around going, "Yeah, man. Police brutality is a bitch, bro. I know what that shit's like. Fucked up world, man. Rodney fucking King, bro. I just wanted to yell at a former presidential candidate for a while. Free speech and shit."
News: That was not an issue of free speech. If that is protected by the first amendment, then this means we have a right to cause a scene at every public event and vent our retarded viewpoints upon people being paid to talk to our dumb, entitled asses, and being an asshole when asked to leave. It's an issue of taking more than what is allotted to you. It's about pushing things to the very limit of what you think you can get away with and then being shocked as shit when you miscalculated.
Ask this kid if he would trade all of his internet fame and pseudo-martyrdom for not being tazed. Prepare to be lied to. |

Man Builds Guillotine to Kill Himself
By Associated Press
Wed Sep 12, 2:05 PM
ALLEN PARK, Mich. - The body of a 41-year-old man was found in a wooded area next to a guillotine he built and used to kill himself, police said. The man, from the Detroit suburb of Melvindale, was discovered Monday by workers from a shopping center near his home.
Allen Park Deputy Police Chief Dale Covert said the roughly six-foot tall guillotine was bolted to a tree and included a swing arm. Covert said police also found several store receipts detailing the materials used to assemble the device.
"I can't even tell you how long it must have taken him to construct," he said. "This man obviously was very determined to end his life." |

music: I don't like that dude.

Livejournal? I'm not even sure people still check this.
Anyway - shit is ruling right now. The only things that could make it better are:
playing music
being a little more assured about grad school and my niche in academia
being a little more fit (j.lyn and I looked at a gym today)
seeing more movies/getting the resources to film stuff
GETTING THIS SHIT ON MY HAND REMOVED (sorry dudes, but you fucking know it's true)
All will be accomplished soon (except maybe the music thing since I and everyone else is lazy)
My job is really sweet. It doesn't pay as much as my last one, but obviously has much more going for it.
I started a blog at gentilesse.blogspot.com
It will not be interesting at all if you don't have any tolerance for me being a nerd. In which case, I don't give a shit. |

Every time I think for more than 10 seconds about John Holsinger's nomination for Surgeon General, I black out for 12 hours and wake up naked and sweating ten miles away with clumps of my own hair clasped in my clenched, shaking fists. |
