horse the band 

A five piece "Nintendocore" band from LA, California. The reason they have been coined as a Nintendo related band is because through out there selection of albums and E.Ps there have been a handful of video game references.

1. pol's voice

An enemy that appears fairly late in NES's "Legend of Zelda".

2. Birdo

The first boss in Super Mario Bros 2. (America)

3. The house of boo (questionable)

Boo is a character from various Mario games.

4. there most famous song "cutsman"

Cutman is the real name of a character from the Megaman series.

"There are Nintendo references in 3 of our songs: Cutsman, Pol’s Voice, Birdo--they serve as metaphors for something else that is important in Nathan’s life." - David Isen

HORSE the band is extremely energetic and are always drunk, at least at shows. they almost always end with "cutsman", and due to popular belief, they fucking hate when that song is requested for various and obvious reasons.

HORSE the band is a very funny group of people, they often make great, and in depth/immature jokes on stage and in interviews.

i.e

"Alright, so I guess the best place to star…"

N: Fuck you! (Laughs) I'm sorry. No, I'm not really sorry, keep going.

"HORSE the band is five stellar gods running from a haunted future they can't possibly forget. Formed on the mean streets of Los Angeles in 2027 A.D. the members of H the B began to create their exotic sound to fight the past and recreate the future." - myspace.com/horsetheband
"I love horse the band"

"When does horse go on"

"HORSE the band is the best fucking band that ever walked this depressing planet, nothing else matters"

A "HORSE the band is like nintendo rock, right"

B "Shut the fuck up."

Band of the big black horse 

Getting screwed by a big black man playing the trumpet while you ride on a big black horse playing the drums. Usually happens in Amsterdam and while on a farm.
Friend: “Whatcha doin this weekend?”
Me: “ Going to Amsterdam and enjoying a night of the band of the big black horse.”

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
