About Me

I want to travel back to a world where the following video can top the charts, because what a swell place that would be.

I learned this song is called "A Study in Brown"...amazing. And the negative is flipped. Perfect.
And I would like to box Bush. Bare knuckle. To the death. Still.

Heroes:

Nope.

God damn it, you've got to be kind

Fuck this shit

So my favorite band just played, and it should have been awesome. It wasn't, through no fault of their own...Lake Trout kicked some ass tonight, as usual. The problem? Seeing the show mad...
