I just remembered that Jason and the Punknecks are playing in Downtown LA tonight for $5 with Lightnin Woodcock. I'm really tempted to head that way...

Good choice! Whatcha think of Slaughter? Funny note one my of friends said this about Veil of Maya to me after their set: "Elias, you're good on breakdowns for the rest of the year!"

Unsubscribing from status updates by pretentious, do-gooding assholes who only ever post pictures about one of a) God, b) animals, c) rights of some kind, d) government. Usually with the comment "think".

I do, thanks. Frequently. And you know what, I don't need idiots like you to tell me what to think. Especially if you're dumb enough to believe that getting a bunch of people you don't even actually know to share a picture on Facebook will come even remotely close to getting anything done. I'm sure it makes you feel like you're doing your part though.

hurf.

That is utterly fucking awful. How did that fucking idiot even get a high school diploma, much less admitted to college? I mean, I assume it's a small school, but still - don't they have some kind of standards? I swear, that shit makes me want to choke somebody.

Why is "ruckus" the wrong word? Because pretentious Brits don't care to use it in everyday conversation (if at all)?

It's used all the time here. It's the wrong word because it means a noisy confrontation, not just something noisy in general.

Just got back from my first 2 college classes, gonna head out for my 3rd in a couple hours. My first 2 classes were pretty good. Despite being significantly longer the classes actually feel about the same length as high school classes.
