Damn, a lot of arguements broke out in the last couple weeks. Unfortunately, none of them are fulfilling so it's time to move onto my shit. (Isn't arrogance fun?)Seeing as how I'm (as Liney might put it
) in a cultural wasteland, I've got a couple questions.Who the fuck is Andrew WK and why do I have the urge to waste a lot of Permethrin on him?
If the Osbornes is such a hit, has this in any way effected the programming on eMpTyV?
For those interested in travel, Go to CZ.
WATCH! their efficient rail system as two trains collide injuring about half of 4-3ADA. (It's amazing that only the engineer died.)
SEE! the disappiontment on the face of Joe when he realizes that the whores are in the buildings and not on the road for our gawking pleasure.
EXPERIENCE! the idiocy of upper command as they no longer care because they are leaving the unit in less than a month.
STRIKE! a match and enjoy the campfire that could never be built in Germany (Damn Forestmeisters).
STARE! with disbelief as our support units have access to portable showers, fast food and a PX (the hard life of a Forward Support Battalion)
MASTURBATE! not to the outrageously priced $7.99 Perfect 10s but to the idea of a cute Medic chick 3-way. (Alright, maybe FSBs aren't that bad)
REALIZE! that if you touched any one of them, your career is gone.
FUCK! the first drunken German chick you see in a bar upon your return.
REGRET! the fact that you should've been a little more choosey.
SHAME! at the fact that no one will even accept money to wash your FUNKY clothes. (Proof that white boys got FUNK)
OK enough of that.
Spiderman- cool flick
My Landlady gave me cash back for the power I didn't use while I was in CZ. Germans are amusingly honest. (The army pays my rent so it was like getting an extra $150)
It's time to fix my car so I can go to OZZFEST in Prague.

Veistran- good irony. It's certainly provoked much conversation.I figured a news junky might ask about the train crash. I heard from the BDE Surgeon that we made CNN and NBC nightly news.
Vulu- what's not to understand? I'm an LT in the army. In a different thread I mentioned that I was going to the field. I'm back. Here's my overly opinionated take on the situation written in 1960's B-movie poster style.
Anyone- enlighten me. Andrew WK? OZZY: Pimped by Sharon or subversively altering MTV?

irony? no, I really liked this post. Maybe it's because I "got it?"

Sharon is a goddess. She got Ozzy $20 million for doing nothing. I want her to be my manager

sorry, lack of sleep was causing me to be quite incoherent. thus, i didn't understand pretty much everything you said. too much information when you've been up for 36+ hours results in a 'the fuck?'

veistran- thanks.vulu- no problem.
wiley- I haven't seen the show so I don't know the Pros/Cons.
Ozzy, being rich, doesn't really need 20mil. Don't get me wrong, I'd take 20mil. In the process, though, I'd try to subvert MTV and utilize it's influence on popculture. This is what I hope is the end result and not just some easy way to make some cash.

Andrew WK sucks. Don't waste money on him.

I seem to remember one episode in which threw some log or rock or something through his neighbours window because their music was pissing him off. But I haven't really watched it much and payed much attention.

ozzy hobbled over to the fence and threw a piece of firewood through their neighbor's window, for playing "The Girl from Ipanema" loudly at 2:00am, for the past couple days. Their son, likes to blast a euopean Metal band back at them.
The daughter is pissed at both, and the mother, Sharon is hilarious.
"The Wicked Witch has nothing on me, dear."
Personally: I'd subvert MTV. I'd try to shift pop 'culture' away from cheap no-talent boy bands, and back into better music, like the stuff MTV started on. 'I want my MTV', goddamnit! Not this crap that they have now...
the show is great fun to watch.
