Band Aid

group of musicians from the UK who recorded "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in the mid 80s.

If you have no idea what song this is, trust me on this one; you will hear it over and over and over and over and over....
I was walking through Walmart and I heard that fucking Band Aid song for the 26th time today....and Christmas is a month away. For fucks sake, I hope that song will go away soon.

You may not be surprised, but I got the fuckin' shaft at work today. Nothing like working another 20 hr day.

It is what it is

A cliche, popular within the circles of coaches, business execs, and those of us who just want to say "It's happened. 'I'm going to forget about it. I'm going to move on. There is nothing that can be done about it."

Voted by USA Today as the #1 cliche of 2004
"We showed up and gave 100%, and it is what it is."— NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson, after finishing second in the Nextel Cup championship. (AP, Nov. 22)

"Never in a million years did I think we would be 1-5 at this juncture, but it is what it is."— Mike Minter, safety for the NFL's Carolina Panthers, on his team's start this season. (AP, Oct. 24)

Is this a better game than before? That's what a lot of people are asking. Perhaps the more precise question should be: Is this what hockey is going to evolve into? And if so, will the fans, the players, the coaches, and the general managers embrace it as NHL hockey?
"It is what it is," said Flyers coach Ken Hitchcock. "It's a new game." (AP, Oct. 23)

1000 homo DJs

Side project of Al Jourgensen's primarily composed of members from Nine Inch Nails (Trent Reznor aka Ike Krull) and Ministry (Bill Rieflin aka Wee Willie Reefer; Al Jourgensen aka Buck Satan (vocals) and Hypo Luxa (producer)

most famous for their 1994 cover of Black Sabbath's "Supernaut". There is a rumor that Trent Reznor does the vocals for this track, but because of legal problems with his record company, the vox was distorted and credit was given to Mr. Buck Satan.
There are two different stories as to how this side-project came about... one is said that it was created through Al's distate of a poor mix of a Revolting Cocks song. Another was through his worry that the final mixes from THE LAND OF RAPE & HONEY would never see the light of day.

Whichever story, thus was born that Jim Nash, co-founder of WaxTrax!, confided to him that "a thousand homo DJs would hear it!"

(I'm sure some politically correct pussy will blast this definition because of the use of the word HOMO. Look, I didn't make the name, I'm simply reporting it on urbandictionary.com. End of story.)

penguin

1. Mascot for Pittsburgh's hockey team
2. caffeine-enhanced mints
3. nickname for running with your pants down around your ankles. (origin: a very bad joke)
1. Don't bother me. I'm watching the Penguin game tonight. I know Lemieux is out, but Fleury's playing tonight so they should win. At least we still don't have that bitch Jagr.
2. Pop me a few Penguins. I'm dragging.
3. In shock he jumped up and had to waddle towards the door with his pants around his ankles and called after her "Why do they call this a penguin?!!!"

MTV

who would have thought this was written over 20 years ago?

Fun Fun Fun in the fluffy chair
Flame up the herb
Woof down the beer
?(click!)?

Hi, I'm your video DJ. I always talk like I'm wigged out on quaaludes. I wear a satin baseball jacket everywhere I go. (Yes, I know. No one wears a satin jacket anyone unless it's a wordthrowback/word - RR)

My job is to help destroy what's left of your imagination, by feeding you endless doses of sugar-coated mindless garbage.

So don't create, be sedate. Be a vegetable at home and thwack on that dial. If we have our way even you will believe this is the future of rock and roll

(background: MTV GET OFF THE AIR)

How far will you go?
how low will you stoop?
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated poop?

You've turned rock and roll rebellion
Into Pat Boone sedation; making sure nothing's left to the imagination.

M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the
M.T.V. Get off the air
Get off the air

See the latest rejects from the muppet show wag their tits and their dicks as they lip-synch on screen.
There's something I don't like about a band who always smiles.
Another tax write-off for some schmuck who doesn't care.

M.T.V. Get off the air!

And so it was, our beloved corporate gods claimed they created rock video.
Allowing it to sink as low in one year
As commercial TV has in 25.
"It's the new frontier," they say.
It's wide open, anything can happen
But you've got a lot of nerve to call yourself a pioneer when you're too god-damn conservative to take real chances.

Tin-eared graph-paper brained accountants instead of music fans call all the shots at giant record companies now.

The lowest common denominator rules
Forget honesty
Forget creativity
The dumbest buy the mostest
That's the name of the game

But sales are slumping
And no one will say why
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!? (Yes, hell yes - RR)

hippie lettuce

slang for pot, chronic, ganja, weed, the product, etc.
When we drove past the Phish concert, we caught a glimpse of about 12000 people in the parking lot burning the hippie lettuce.
