punk rock 

A genre of music that died around 1996, contrary to what any blue haired fifteen yr old will tell you.

Punk Rock originally had a three chord sound. Everyone knew that the music was not important as the message. Sid Vicious was never known as the best player of the 70s or of any era, but everyone knew who the Sex Pistols were.

True punk rock bands include (but are not limited to): Sex Pistols, Black Flag, Ramones, Youth Brigade, Bad Brains, DK (pre-1987), Descendents, Minor Threat, Fugazi, 7 Seconds, Bad Religion, Sub Society, and Teen Idols.

Examples of "punk" rock, only by record label classification: Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Simple Plan, Avril Lavigne, No Doubt (yes, I once had someone tell me they are punk. Yes, you may laugh too), 311, and The All American Rejects.
Kid1: Dude, I am so punk because I wear a Good Charlotte wordhoodie/word, a mesh wordtrucker hat/word that I bought at the mall and have every Blink 182 CD, including the bootlegs.
Kid2: No, that makes you a fucking tool.
Kid1: But I want to be punk. How can I be punk?
Kid2: In the words of Jello: "Punk ain't no religious cult,punk means thinking for yourself. You ain't hardcore cause you spike your hair, when a jock still lives inside your head."

To paraphrase: Mall punks, mall punks, mall punks.....fuck off!

who would have thought this was written over 20 years ago?

Fun Fun Fun in the fluffy chair
Flame up the herb
Woof down the beer
?(click!)?

Hi, I'm your video DJ. I always talk like I'm wigged out on quaaludes. I wear a satin baseball jacket everywhere I go. (Yes, I know. No one wears a satin jacket anyone unless it's a wordthrowback/word - RR)

My job is to help destroy what's left of your imagination, by feeding you endless doses of sugar-coated mindless garbage.

So don't create, be sedate. Be a vegetable at home and thwack on that dial. If we have our way even you will believe this is the future of rock and roll

(background: MTV GET OFF THE AIR)

How far will you go?
how low will you stoop?
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated poop?

You've turned rock and roll rebellion
Into Pat Boone sedation; making sure nothing's left to the imagination.

M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the air
Get off the air

See the latest rejects from the muppet show wag their tits and their dicks as they lip-synch on screen.
There's something I don't like about a band who always smiles.
Another tax write-off for some schmuck who doesn't care.

M.T.V. Get off the air!

And so it was, our beloved corporate gods claimed they created rock video.
Allowing it to sink as low in one year
As commercial TV has in 25.
"It's the new frontier," they say.
It's wide open, anything can happen
But you've got a lot of nerve to call yourself a pioneer when you're too god-damn conservative to take real chances.

Tin-eared graph-paper brained accountants instead of music fans call all the shots at giant record companies now.

The lowest common denominator rules
Forget honesty
Forget creativity
The dumbest buy the mostest
That's the name of the game

But sales are slumping
And no one will say why
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!? (Yes, hell yes - RR)

your taxdollars at work 

useless spending, but somehow justified by the government.
Guy1: See that eight foot platinum statue of the mayor, surrounded by 12 stadium lights that are lit 24/7?
Guy2: Yeah
Guy1: That's your tax dollars at work.
Guy2: Fuck that. I'm never paying my taxes again.
Guy1: Be sure to write me soon.
Guy2: What the fuck for?
Guy1: 'cause you'll be in wordjail/word for tax evasion.
Guy2: Oh, wordfor fucks sake/word!
Guy1: Yep. You're fucked
Guy2: Damn.
acronym, although pronounced as if it is a single word, for "Bend over! Here it comes again."

Commonly used around the workplace when getting repeatedly fucked by the work center supervisor. Very commonly used within the military, specifically the navy and FFG-22.
(Office Space reference)

Bill Lumburgh asking Peter Gibbons to work on Saturday is a perfect example of getting fucked by the supervisor.

Lumbergh asking Peter to come in on Sunday is even more fucked up. Peter should have yelled "BOHICA!" and walked out of the office.

also known as ma huang, is a popular dietary supplement in the United States and has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine. Ephedra is a compound ofnaturally occurring compounds that are found in plants. Manufacturers are required by law to declare the amount of ephedra in each serving. (25mg per serving, or 100mg per day)
2) substance now banned thanks to former Orioles pitcher Steve Bechler. Bechler, who will never be confused with fitness guru Jack Lalanne, died in 2003 of a heat stroke but was found to have ephedra in his system, along with a load of caffiene pills and pseudoephedrine. Because of his death and other 'claims', the gov is now in the process of banning ephedra in 3-2004. While some may argue in Bechler's family's side, some people casually miss these facts:

- although listed at 239 in the Orioles' media guide, when Bechler's ticker quit, he was 320 lbs(!!) (source CNNSi) at his autopsy.

- Bechler was not accustomed to the warm S Florida climate.

- he had a history of heart problems and a bad liver PRIOR to taking ephedra.

- he was on a liquid diet.

- it was revealed at the autopsy that Bechler was abusing ephedra. From the tox report, it was revealed that Bechler was taking at least 3 tablets per serving, possibly more.
1) I stocked up on some TwinLab energy fuel yesterday since the gov seems to want to take another part of my life away.

2)like anything in life, ephedra is effective when used in moderation. Steve Bechler seemed to think that moderation was 4 caplets per serving. Not that I would wish anything bad on those who abuse any type of substance, but because one individual (who was 80 lbs overweight, I might add) abuses a NATURAL SUPPLEMENT that has been around for 1000s of years, now we all have to suffer.
