fuck my name, who i be
soundgarden in the independent. how much lower can they sink? i mean,
rilly. local music? what's that? at least they haven't made up a local
band to follow in the big battle of the bands every novemeber.
but yes, fuck the independent. i hereby resolve never to read that
shit-stained waste of hemp again. it's been on a downhill slide for a long
while now, esp. in terms of music coverage, and seeing a story on
soundgarden where a story about the 'xdu benefit belonged (it didn't even
get a best bet, you know. not a god-damn word was said in indy land about
this show) just really broke my back. the only thing i've found myself
reading in the last month was the comics anyway, and I can't swear off the
indy entirely, cause i need my red meat every week...
egads. as old dirty bastard said "fuck my name... who i be... fuck the
game... it's all about the money." greg swanson's taking that to the bank,
ladies and gents. it's a kinder, gentler indy, a richer indy if you will.
a soundgarden indy, not a gold sparkle band indy. for richer liberals,
people who like to sit in posh cafes and read thoughtfully about
revolution, instead of getting off their fat j. crew asses and doing
something. me, i don't do anything, but i don't pretend to either.
fuck all of 'em. i'm writing an english paper, a situation that last time
occurred one year ago, and directly resulted in me dropping out of school
for a year. it's not going much better this time. my god, i hate a liberal
arts education. i hate jumping through hoops, and college is really
nothing but one giant hoop when you think about it. why do we need grades,
except to rubber stamp that "yes, this person has, at least, rote
memorization skills, and under pressure can bullshit his/her way through
20 pages of blather about X".
ah, but this is all horribly off-topic, and none of you care, and unlike a
certain 3.2.3 i have better things to do than waste my time writing things
no one reads.
so i will close with this: an education is a horrible thing to pay for.
