    Now I have Halo stuck in my head.

    I think Beyonce has a terrible voice. It hurts my ears. If it weren't for her looks she wouldn't be a famous singer.

  • What a bunch  [ Tue Aug 4 2009 1:04 PM ]

    of fucking liars- motorcycle drivers saying they rev their bikes to warn drivers of their presence. Do they really think anyone is a big enough idiot to believe that bullshit?

    Why do they do it when they are only going 5mph, or stopped? That's the dumbest argument I've heard in a long while.

    I entered a rabbit hole of website linkage to get to the part where Geithner's actually swears. But nothing. Where the fuck is the cursing?

  • I think you have to imagine the cursing  [ Tue Aug 4 2009 1:19 PM ]

    It's almost more fun that way. Sorry your digging was fruitless though!

  • Gaga vs. Beyonce  [ Tue Aug 4 2009 1:26 PM ]

    I'm going with Beyonce every time.

  • Motorcycle family  [ Tue Aug 4 2009 1:54 PM ]

    I come from one. Harley's, cruisers, dirt bikes. The Harley owners in my family make no bones about why they rev- to show off. To have fun. Especially under bridges. I understand why they do it. But it's still way obnoxious.

  • Yeah, but...  [ Tue Aug 4 2009 2:44 PM ]

    ...the battle between Rihanna and Beyonce?

    RIHANNA!!!

  • That's the toughest battle in pop music  [ Wed Aug 5 2009 2:57 PM ]

    But I would go with Beyonce.

  • Nick Brown  [ Thu Aug 6 2009 10:36 AM ]

    Nick's versions of those songs are way better than the over-produced, multi-multitracked originals. Nick Brown should be at the Emmy Awards wearing too much make-up and a silly dress while winning tons of those awards. And, speaking of awards, why hasn't Nick Brown gotten one of the New Mexico music awards? I forget what they're called, but he should have about 30 of those things lined up on his ristra-draped portico. This is not an opinion. It is a fact.

  • I would love to see that!  [ Thu Aug 6 2009 12:00 PM ]

    I also think we found the image to use for June (pride month) in the "12 months of Nick Brown" calendar to be released for 2010.

    fucking liars- motorcycle drivers saying they rev their bikes to warn drivers of their presence. Do they really think anyone is a big enough idiot to believe that bullshit?

    There's a tiny bit of merit to that and it's actually a safe method of getting attention. It's about a dime addage to a five dollar argument though. There's enough jackholes that are revving in mourning of their manhood that any defense they staple together is going to drown.

    And it did. Any decent cop will know how to apply that law. It's the difference between someone clearing their throat and singing opera concertos.
