Shonen Knife

A Japanese punk lady trio, hailing from Osaka, Japan. They formed in 1981 and they play power-pop-punk rock music inspired by the Ramones, Beach Boys, 60s 'girl groups' (singing trios) and Japanese pop. Unlike most punk bands they generally write about more 'positive' topics, esp. food, good times and occasionally sci-fi. They don't push a sexual image but they do have a 'cutesy-wutsey' kawaii image, and they often draw in the cosplay crowd but make no mistake - those women are punk rockers, and they can kick out the jams - HARD. Some critics label this band under the category of 'cuddlecore'.

1. I've seen and met Shonen Knife five times. They always put on an exciting electrifying set. They're very fan friendly, after a show they'll talk with you, pose for selfies, sign anything.

2. Their audience is expanding beyond generations. The last 2 times I saw them they were playing full houses to audiences that had adults in their 40s and 50s.
3. Play a Shonen Knife CD in your car and it'll take you outta your doldrums in no time.
4. Shonen Knife is simply a FUN band to hear and see. What's wrong with just plain fun? When they come to your town to play, check them out.

Knifed

It hurts more than getting fingered, it also can result in death more often.

Freddy didn't get fingered, Cesar knifed him instead for ratting out his whole crew.

to knife-jack

( named after Jack the Ripper : to take hostage, kidnap, threaten, rape, or sodomize someone at knife point

Nobody knows to this day if Jack the RIpper tried to knife-jack his victims or if he used more subtle forms of psychological manipulation on them before killing them.

double-edged butter knife

When something doesn't really work in your favor, but also sort of works against your enemy.

We had to go over to that dickhead John's house. Sean accidentally shit himself, but he was sitting on John's couch when it happened. Classic double-edged butter knife.
