wickedfleaShit. Think I'm gonna stay at work for a while. Got hit w/ MORE pages from the magazine for--yep, you guessed it--a one-day turnaround. And I'm supposed to have a chapter of that other project edited by Friday, so I, um, probably need to start on that sometime. :/
A while back I wrote in general about people who are very sweet but quite stupid. Then there are the people who you also like, but all of a sudden you realize are FUCKIN' CRAZY. And then there are the spazzes. You would think spazzes would be immediately recognizeable, but it's not always so. Today I diagnosed a spaz's spazzitude after knowing him for probably a year.
This has absolutely nothing to do with any LJ folks, I swear. It's these nutty bastards at work. I've KNOWN you guys are nuts. ;-)
You mean this Metallica thing is REAL? It can't be, right? That's a damned dangerous precedent for Metallica to set, I think. If they can successfully sue someone for using E and F chords, then they're gonna get the GONADS sued off 'em by Tony Iommi. I heard they wrote a lot of their earlier songs by bashing through Sabbath tunes and reworking the riffs. I think that would be just hilarious if they got sued by every band that ever influenced them--Sabbath, the Misfits, Diamond Head, etc. They've even admitted that "Seek and Destroy" is basically a slightly changed version of a Diamond Head tune (can't remember which one).
I hate that band so much. I still think their first four albums (plus the original Garage Days Re-Revisited EP) were great, but I can't even listen to them anymore. Ever since the black album (Spinal Tap, anyone?) I feel betrayed. Does anyone here do hexes, spells, or whammies? I want them to lose all their money and have to get minimum-wage jobs at Taco Bell. And if they want to still be a band, they'll have to open for bands who play nothing but E and F chords all goddamn night. And the womens and girl-thangs will scorn them like dirty dogs.
It's never a good idea to convince yourself that yer own shit don't stink.
