Saw them in the early 2000s at a medium sized, indoor venue that had no seating. $25 / ticket. They stopped in the middle of a song to make sure someone was ok and a guy even jumped from the (not super high) balcony, crowd surfed to the stage, and played guitar with them for a song.

You got ripped off. :/

Kinda the same way my car tells me I'm not looking at the road if I tilt my head 2 inches to the side or back. Its constantly giving me warning, and I'm constantly yelling that I am looking at the road! How else could I go around this turn!

At least I have the option of covering it with black electrical tape. Jeeze.

I used to watch David the Gnome when I was young. When I went back and watched it as an adult it was the slowest moving thing I had seen in a while. I was amazed I had that kind of attention span as a kid.

Yeah, it was a joke. Thus the ;)

Incineration? In ten years, we'll wonder why part of the moon is just missing.

I could see this being a good temporary backup plan, though.

So they say. Guess he lost his vocal cords during the process. Wonder how it would have been if the church just let him get medical help...or never told him to start smoking in the first place ;)

Idk Val Kilmer is always smoking like a chimney in all his early movies. But then he also went against the church to get chemo so...

The Monster Squad was the best. Found it in the $5 bin later, and its still rad!

The article I read said Alzheimer patients had 10x the amount of plastics in the, compared to peoples ithput Alzheimers.

Edit: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/aug/21/microplastics-brain-pollution-health

In the study, researchers looked at 12 brain samples from people who had died with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease. These brains contained up to 10 times more plastic by weight than healthy samples.

Try clicking the comment number link, not the title link. I don't understand the difference, but it sometimes it changes things.

Maybe. I was in a really small town, but it was a good district that was fairly liberal, all things considered. We always used to joke about what would warrant it, since we were all aware it was a possibility. The form could have been a deterrent tactic, I suppose.
