So true. The 80's concert scene was money, and grunge strangled it with the plaid shirt that was tied around it's waist. I did like some of those 90's bands, though (I'll put Chris Cornell's pipes up there with anybody, and STP was great, too. RIP.).

It's this type of moral bankruptcy in white culture that is causing all the crime, poverty, and fatherlessness in the white community. Thugs with frizzy long hair talking about sex and drugs instead of writing songs about settling down with a family and getting a job as an insurance agent.

Uuuuuummmmm, moral bankruptcy maybe, but the other charges...lol

Also, we understood it was just music and knew where to draw the line between fantasy and reality.

BTW, I bet you’re the life of the party at get togethers. I bet everyone rolls their eyes when you walk in. They’re like “here we go...”

You are basically Workers United Lite.

Jeez, take a joke. I was parodying conservatives' talking points re rap music and black culture.

Also, I'm awesome at parties.

Hmmm, idk how I would. I slept with at least one girl from every sorority at my college. I peed in a lot of funny places. I once got my BAC up to 0.39 on a home breathalzyer, but I'm convinced, but cannot prove, that I would have comfortably cleared 0.40 in years before that when I was thinner and drank more heavily. I once got locked out of my hotel so I shared a flask of whiskey with homeless guys and slept on the street by the train station.
 
I am sick of this. It seems like every single dang thing is racist now. I've been watching CHarlie Brown's Thanksgiving since I was a little kid. There is nothing racist about it. I just hate the fake outrage.

ABC's annual "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" special was slammed as racist by some on social media, with some viewers objecting to the dinner-table seating of its only black character.

The scene in question has four characters from Charles M. Schulz’s iconic “Peanuts” cartoon — Sally, Charlie Brown, Peppermint Patty and dog Snoopy — sitting on one side of a makeshift outdoor table for Thanksgiving dinner, with Marcie at one end of the table and Linus at the head.

The cartoon's lone black character, Franklin, is on his own side of the table seated on a lawn chair.

Comicbook.com was the first to flag the reactions to the scene on social media.

How come Franklin, Charlie Brown’s only black friend, sits alone on the other side of the table? And in a lawn chair. #franklin#CharlieBrown #CharlieBrownThanksgiving

Black journalist Jeremy Helligar wrote in a Friday commentary reacting to the controversy that Franklin’s placement in other “Peanuts” specials appeared more inclusive.

"A relevant aside: During the farewell dinner about one hour and five minutes into 1972’s 'Snoopy Come Home,' Franklin was seated on the same side of the table as Charlie Brown, Lucy, and Frieda — in a regular chair," Helligar said on Medium.

Schulz, who passed away in 2000, reportedly demanded a black character be added to the Charlie Brown cast in 1968 following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Schulz was inspired to do so after receiving a letter from a teacher named Harriet Glickman.

When asked by the head of the cartoon's publisher, United Feature Syndicate, if he was sure he wanted to add a black character, Glickman says Schulz replied, "Either you run it the way I drew it, or I quit.’ ”

Franklin’s 50th anniversary was celebrated by the Schulz Museum in July.

"A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" first ran on CBS in November 1973, where it aired until 2001. ABC picked up the rights to all “Peanuts” specials the following year.

One of my favorite stories is MJ and Freddy Mercury were supposed to record a song together but MJ was turned off by the massive amounts of Blow Freddy was doing and Freddy was freaked out by MJ's pet Lama that he insisted be in studio.

When Stevie Nicks was writing/ recording "Stand Back" she contacted Prince because the song was inspired by "Little Red Corvette" and she wanted him to listen to it first. Nobody gets ahold of Prince directly, you always had to go through at least 1 person who would relay the message to him. He responded to her right away and told her; 'hey, I'm here in L.A. I'm on my way over'.

He got to the studio listened to it raw, then recorded the keyboard track that you hear on the released version and bounced.

Like. A. Fucking. Boss.
