wanking for a spanking

1. It's a very sad and sorry situation, scenario and practice by some realty sick boys. Ninny boys who are into S & M are jacking off while reading those 'mash notes' from their dominator bitches and get turned on while thinking about the 'discipline' they'll get next time they meet their favorite whore, they are wanking while thinking about the spankings they are gonna get.

2. When somebody is being a glutton for punishment. Kind of like 'cruising for a bruising'. ASKING for trouble.

1. Donald Treason tRump has shown the world in so many ways what an SMF he is. He talks incestuous lust about his daughter and there are pictures of the two together that would make a dog upchuck. He rapes, and has been convicted of it. He talks pervert trash ('the younger, the better'). He brags about 'grabbing em by the pussy'. He is an egotistical Caligula by every definition and description of that grossly deviant Roman emperor. And the stripper whore Stormy Daniels spilled the beans on '60 Minutes' about swatting his ass. il Douche Donald is a spankee boy. Shiiiiiiii-yiiiiiiiiitttttt, he's wanking for a spanking! DAMN!!!

2. Jeffrey is reading those stupid BDSM books and watching that Rihanna video again, he's wanking for a spanking!

3. Rikki is being a spoiled diva prima donna again. She's just wanking for a spanking to put her in her place! She's a big disgrace.

goosestep

a type of marching that evolves high kicking up as you step forward. It first appeared in the 19th century Prussian military. Later it became associated with the Nazi regime lead by Adolph Hitler in Germany. This mode of marching was soon adopted by the military institutions of other fascist regimes like the Falangist dictatorship of Francisco Franco that ruled Spain for nearly 4 decades. After WWII the communist army of East Germany used this method of marching. When Germany reunited as a democratic nation in 1990 the goosestep was finally abolished, at least in Germany. Other countries' armies may still use it today. Nevertheless, goosestepping is mostly associated with the Nazis, and usually fascism in general, often as a pejorative trait.

Bill keeps ranting about how "queers ought to be deported", how immigrants are "getting free houses, free cars, free education, free rides and "tax exemptions for 7 years" (note that magic number 7), the "liberal media and education bias", the "Jewish cartels", the "war on Christianity", "taking God out of schools" and all that tired hokey shit. He needs to take a good look around him. He's a goosestepper, a trained Pavlov dog, a droid.

Queensryche

an intelligent progressive heavy metal band from Seattle. They released their first album in 1983 and has always stood out from other heavy metal bands in the 80s and beyond. They released the concept album "Operation Mindcrime" in 1988, earning the respect of fans and critics alike. Singer/keyboardist Geoff Tate has a stunning voice often described as "operatic". All of their albums range from good to great. Check out "Operation: Mindcrime", "Empire", "Tribe" and "The Art of Live".

I saw Queensryche at a club near a university 2 years ago and they are dynamic performers. Queensryche, who are inspired by Pink Floyd and Rush and other bands, are often referred to as the "thinking man's heavy metal band". Check them out live.

punk rock

quite simply, punk rock is a restoration of the original rebellious youth attitude and simple fundamentals of expession in rock'n'roll music that was first expressed in the 50s by the giants like Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis (especially in his personal life), and others, as opposed to the clean cut image of some of the pop stars that were dominant at the time. In the mid-60s there was the Velvet Underground who influenced punk by their lyrical themes and feedback and more. Then came what are now considered to be the protopunk bands, who took the practice of pushing the envelope that British bands like the Rolling Stones, the Who and the Kinks initiated to even greater lengths in terms of sound, image and rebellious attitude (the Stooges, the MC5, and many other bands). The term "punk rock" possibly was first used by rock critic Dave Marsh in a rockmag in the early 70s to describe the sound of ? and the Mysterians. An independent movement in rock developed as a reaction because the music had become corporate, pompous, bloated, pretentious, artsy-fartsy, and along with Top 40 pop, just plain cruddy and stupid. Bands started playing their songs short, to the point, loud, and fast, often a three-chord arrangement in accordance with the idiom KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid). The name "punk rock" was applied to this independent movement in rock, the movement was and still a rebellion against the prevailing fads and trends. It has greatly influenced popular music in the 80s decade and beyond, spawning nascent movements like speed metal, new wave, postpunk, grunge and more in terms of style, sound, image, attitude and much more. Punk rock is anti-corporate, anti-establishment, anti-system and anti-conformity. Current bands like Blink 182 and Good Charlotte are NOT punk rock because they don't really have the original rebellious rock'n'roll spirit, gist or attitude of individuality. Music has gotten so corporate now that we very badly need another rock revolution like punk and we need it fast, before rock's just part of the past. Cuz lately it just sounds the same to me... (all due respect to the Ramones).

The Ramones are often considered to be the first actual punk rock band as we know it. This legendary band from Forest Hills, Queens, the Big Apple were greatly influenced by American garage rock bands, the British Invasion, the Beach Boys and girl groups. I saw them four times before they called it quits in 1996. VIVA RAMONES!

Domo Arigato

a phrase in the Japanese language that means "thank you very much". Made popular in Western culture by the 1983 hit "Mr. Roberto" (also known as "Kilroy Was Here", "The Modern Man" and "Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto") by the band Styx. This is how many Americans learned the phrase.

after the Japanese man took a picture of me (sitting in two countries at the same time!) at the U.S. - Canada border mark on the Niagara Falls Peace Bridge I thanked him by saying "Domo arigato". He smiled and shook my hand.

proto-punk

a hard-to-classify group of bands and performers who laid the foundation for and inspired punk rock's development in the mid-1970s. These acts sported tough guy looks, rebellious attitudes, the longest hair in the neighborhood, sometimes simple 3-chord arrangements and/or feedback and garage band aesthetics. Some of these acts were called "punk rock" by critics in the late 60s and early 70s. That label later was applied to later bands of the mid-70s, starting with the Ramones. Elvis Presley may be the original "proto-punk" rocker. He wore denim and leather, wore his hair long for the 50s, swiveled his hips provacatively, rode motorcycles, sneered when he sang, and more. The term "proto-punk" wasn't used until after punk itself came into its own.

Here are some examples of proto-punk acts:
The Kinks
The Who
Velvet Underground
The Stooges
The MC5
? and the Mysterians
The Seeds
New York Dolls
Roxy Music
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Rolling Stones
... and many more.
