Motley Crue 

In my worthless opinion, the BEST BAND EVER! Formed in 1980 by Vince Neil (Vocals) Nikki Sixx (Bass) Mick Mars (Guitar) and Tommy Lee (Drums/Huge Wang). In 1981, they released their first album, Too Fast For Love. Their look involved Harleys, leather jackets, and shit like that. Back in the good ol' 80's, this was considered hardcore and metal. In '83, they released Shout At The Devil. This album was equally as bad ass as the first. In '84, they released Theatre Of Pain. This is where they decided to go for the whole drag queen thing. This album only included 1 good song, Home Sweet Home-which stayed at #1 on MTV for 40 days (back when MTV knew what they were talking about). In 1986, they released Girls, Girls, Girls, a slightly more blusey album, and in '89, they released Dr. Feelgood-their first (and sadly) only #1 album. Vince Neil was fired in '93 and they continued to make their self-titled album with John Corabi (former of Scream! and a future guitarist for Ratt). In '97, the band re-united for Generation Swine, a '99 live album, and 2000's New Tattoo with former Ozzy drummer Randy Castillo (who died two years later). In late 2004, the band announced a reunion world tour. Go see them or kill your pathetic self.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
