Taylor Hawkins died

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Fighters!

[Mezla PigDog]

Have tickets to see them in June...

[Cause]

Got a free upgrade to first class. First time ever. Only a domestic flight but still fun.

The cheese plate meal gave me food poisoning

Ten substances in his system. Not sure if all of them are illegal or harmful. I'm guessing the opioids is what led to his passing. I don't get the attraction to pain meds and opioids. When I had an emergency appendectomy, they gave me percocets and I had to request something else because I couldn't deal with how they made me feel - full fledged space cadet zone, with a touch of nausea. I would rather deal with the pain instead of taking that medication. They switched me over to vicodin, which I could tolerate. But even with that option I had probably 1/3rd of the bottle left, which I ended up flushing.

It will be interesting to see what configuration the band takes on if they continue. I can see Dave Grohl playing drums to honor of Hawkins's memory initially, but not sure if that can be pulled off and handling some of the singing at the same time, especially on the more technical drumming songs / faster tempo tracks.

Sucks. The one thing you could always count on with their live shows was his German headlight smile. And when was he not smiling behind a kit?

My house got hit with coof today - wife had a positive LFT. Delectation.

Sick and fucking tired of all the slap talk. Shut the fuck up already. Not even a whole day has passed and it feels like it happened weeks ago. I don't care about any of those entitled fucksticks.

Yeah, Philadelphians (West or elsewheres) have been going on about it ('West Philadelphia born and raised' blah blah blah....).

If being allowed to slap people were extended to politicians... Trump could get knocked out of the primary. Biden too. Might even bang their heads against the ground and die....

In all seriousness it's ridiculous how many people seem to be defending him.

If you listen to comedians talking about performing in clubs, they're always at risk of getting attacked. People are drunk or high and want to fight, somebody in the crowd get offended or feel insulted. Lot's of shit goes down in smaller venues with no security.

Will Smith was just trying to prevent gun violence. Now instead of drill we'll have 'slap the shit out of people'---flapping like angelic winds of change....

[QuickTidal]

I have many thoughts about the whole thing….but the main one is that Chris Rock ATE that slap. He stood there like a slab of granite and took that shit like a fucking trooper.

If I were Smith, I’d be embarrassed it didn’t even rock Chris back, he just tilted to the side a bit, but his feet stay firmly planted.

But yeah tasteless jokes are not against the law, misdemeanour assault is. As far as I’m concerned Hollywood lives in its own realm of “rules”…because we watched a crime committed on live TV and that man was not only allowed to stay and retake his seat, but he was given a standing ovation and an award 30 minutes later.

Hollywood is fucking mental.

If I told you a story about a dude in a bar making a poor joke at someone else’s wife’s expense and that dude lashing out physically at the joker….you’d ask me when he was arrested… but like for politicians, Hollywood lives by its own rules and laws apparently…

[Malankazooie]

Kanye's "Imma finna let you finish" interruption was more of an affront to award show decency because it wasn't fake/staged.

It will be entertaining to hear how the Fox News personalities cover the slap - Tucker Carlson: "Black lives matter, except when it comes to black on black violence." Or something along those lines I'm predicting.

[Tiste Simeon]

You know what they found on Chris Rock's face after the ceremony?

Fresh Prints!

Quick fact check---apparently no evidence he was going to hit her:

'Marlon Brando boycotted the Oscars and tapped Native American actress and activist Sacheen Littlefeather to refuse his Best Actor award, won for his role in The Godfather, on his behalf. She spoke about the recent standoff between Native Americans and federal law enforcement at Wounded Knee, as well as "the treatment of American Indians today by the film industry."

[...] John Wayne, [...] self-proclaimed white supremacist, was watching from the wings and reportedly tried to rush the stage.

"During my presentation, he was coming towards me to forcibly take me off the stage, and he had to be restrained by six security men to prevent him from doing so,"'

How soon we forget the mayhem and disruption Nathaniel Hornblower and Soy Bomb brought to award shows. Something way more organic, interesting and whimsical than 'artist' Will Smith could ever create.



Starts about 2:32 mark.

Got an age spot on my shaft and as I’m on a dry spell that even my own daughter is find amusing, I decided to use the plasma zapper I ordered 2 months ago.

It burns like a bitch.

[worry]

You been dangling in the sun?!

[Abyss]

Did he just say he's using something called a 'plasma zapper' on his man parts?

....and isn't this a supervillain origin story?

No it's just a bit in Fallout New Vegas where you're in this brothel and...
