Both bands suck. They are the Hair Metal bands of grunge.

For Fuck's balls.

You take that back.  Those bands have absolutely nothing to do with grunge. 
You even live up there, you know better than that.   :mad:

Officially called post grunge bands.

Remember the scene in Full Metal Jacket when Pyle got his ass beat? Me and Seedy are gonna pay you a visit.

I'll even buy the soap and towels.

I picked up some fresh fruit juice on the way to work. It came in a plastic bottle, and when I was drinking I noticed something was written on the bottom but couldn't quite make out what.

The print at the bottom of the bottle read, "Open other end." WTF? One end (the top) has a screw top, the other doesn't. Who thought this might be a necessary reminder?

The same people who put "Caution: contents hot" on a coffee cup.

If you think some people would not complain that a cup of hot coffee burned their fingers, you are mistaken.

At least hot coffee could conceivably burn you if you were taken unawares. Not really sure what injury would result from trying to open the wrong end of a juice bottle :P

They caught the guy suspected of shooting two cops in Iowa.  Wasn't Yi.  So that's good news at least.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Speaking of stupid warning labels, thank you to the British nanny state for putting all those graphic OMG SMOKING KILLS labels on my cigar boxes.

Pretty sure we wanted those in US but then there was concerns about free speech that I think got quashed. I think ultimate thing was that FDA has to eventually come up with different labels on there.

The example ones for US, I believe had gross images in addition to text.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

But they're treating cigars as if they were cigarettes.  I mean, I disagree with the huge graphic labels on cigarettes as well, but that's a separate issue.
