This one time at band camp ...

But sheesh. What's the big deal about an bunch of nasty parody songs? People are such sensitive snowflakes these days.  :lol:

I'm glad there was a more in depth investigation.

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

Ladies and gentlemen, your tax and tuition dollars at work. :mellow:

This wasn't official, kept from public circulation because they knew it could be offensive, and by the way, did anybody catch the memo that marching bands don't sing?  Hell, if they scouted their English department, they'd probably find worse material being used as part of curriculum.

I'm sorry, but this is a case of manufactured outrage if I ever heard one.
Experience bij!

The University of Iowa marching band has a tradition that they do a pub crawl on nights before home games.  They sing parodies of fight songs at each bar and get rewarded with pitchers of beer.

I've mentioned it before but I'll repeat my two favorite parody bits.

What's a fucking buckeye?  It's a fucking nut.

Indiana, Indiana, Indiana, fuck you!

Every marching band does that, Yi.  The OSU band made a competition out of being as nasty and sexist as it could be, though.  They just went too far... unless OSU really had played Auschwitz.  They usually have a tougher non-conference schedule than that.

Gotta love it.  Somebody can't keep track of their little shit, and it's the endangered species that gets the lead salad sammich.

Pretty shitty and sad thing to have happen.  Harambe was a favorite at the zoo.  I think they should have rolled the dice on shooting a tranquilizer at him.  Then maybe shooting the parents.

Definitely shooting the mother.  Accidents happen, and praise God.
