In 1994, I wore my In Utero shirt to college. I’d walk down the hall, and people would look at the shirt. I still remember a professor looking at it, not apparently hip to the scene. She asked, “Bret, is there something you’re trying to tell us?” I had no idea what I was trying to say. Kurt Cobain had just shot his head off with a shotgun. Before that life-changing event, I hadn’t been the biggest fan of Nirvana, but I did recognize the immediate impact “Smells Like Teen Spirit” had on music, or at least on MTV. Nirvana had seemingly killed and buried Hair Metal, and they had done it single-handedly. What exactly was this “Alternative” sound? It was weird, because soon it felt like everything was “alternative,” and that didn’t make any sense. Once everything is the same, how can it be anything but standard, normal? Nirvana was okay, but at least at the time I was wearing the merch, I was much more into Offspring and Green Day and Tool. And that’s about as far as I went into...
Voldemort for President. Finally, a candidate that says exactly what he means!
McCain can't be Voldemort. Biden is. Why else would Obama have picked him? Or maybe all the kooks who believe in conspiracy theories are correct. In that case, perhaps Voldemort is either the head of the conspiracy or in the inner circles and has a lot of influence in manipulating elections and picking candidates.
ReplyDeletePonder this. How did Obama defeat the formidable Clinton machine, and the "most intelligent woman in the world" who was backed but the smartest politician in the country? Why did Biden who could go nowhere on his own in the primaries convince anyone that he has _GOOD_ judgment and _valuable_ experience? For that matter how did McCain defeat a pretty good set of contenders for the Republican nomination?
Just some questions for the critical thinker to consider.
