I just typed in “Al Jourgensen Drunk” into Bing because I was bored and I found this little gem . . . .
http://www.antiquiet.com/interviews/2008/09/al-jourgensen-reveals-kung-fu-powers-dick/
So Gunnar, when you bash on Amlux is that considered Kung Fu?

No, Sir.
That’s just plain ‘ol fashioned bitch-slappin’.

Without watching the interview let me guess a few of the comments that Al makes:
-He once filled Neil Young’s pants full of Prego pasta sauce and then lit his hair on fire all while Al and Neil were ripped to the tits on bathtub gin they’d stolen from Tom Brokov’s private stash.
-Al learned Kung Fu from Bruce Lee himself and his fists are registered weapons in 37 of the 50 states.
-Wicked Lake is the best movie of all time
Am I close?
Not really. It’s actually kind of a fun interview.

My friend…as a watcher of many things to see a second’s worth of tits at ANY age (11 to adulthood)…I can’t imagine anyone these days would put up with that mess for any tits of any kind.

Kids have gotten so jaded nowadays.
I remember when my sister and her friend had a “Sixteen Candles” VHS that they’d rented. My buddy and I happened to catch word that there were tits in the film and we snuck downstairs after everyone had dozed off. I would wager that we watched Carolyn Mumford’s shower scene about 6,871 times if I’m being conservative. That scene and Phoebe Cates (Fast Times at Ridgemont High) were extremely epic tits for me growing up.

Shit,we used to watch the scrambled cable channels for hours at a time just to maybe catch a distorted nipple…now you can get 18,000,000 free porn channels with the touch of a button…
I concur with Gunnar that the Pheobe scene in Fast Times was and is epic beyond words…I saw a recent pic of her and she held up very well…
I sometimes wonder what the porn on-demand generation is going to be like when they grow up. It’s a different world for them.
I know I’ve had this conversation with some of y’all before, but kids these days will never understand the joy of finding a faded Penthouse hidden in a hollowed log in the woods.
Sort of on topic, but not…
I have a teenage son (16), and I find their entire world is different. They don’t drink (we can drink at 18 here…), so we used to start at around 16… even some of his older friends don’t drink, or if they do, not the stupid crazy amounts we used to. And they are all faithful to their girlfriends and stuff. No crazy high school cheating antics.
I told my buddy about it and he blames cell phones. He said we used to be able to do crazy shit, make out with random non-girlfriend chicks, and we could always deny it the next day. Now EVERYONE has a camera phone, so within .46 seconds the pictures of you acting like a drunken fool, or making out at a bar would be all over facebook. So kids live in fear of being caught.
Yes/No?
YES!! Well said.
You are spot on. Cell phones are the bane of society and will contribute to the Decline of Western Civilization as we used to know it.
When people get too addicted to technology , they lose their roots.
I get so sick of these well-scrubbed kids who should be inducted into drug & alcohol use to free their minds from the constraints of conformist ideology. Looking at the Coachella young’uns, I was reminded of the fashion-conscious, but totally vapid, frat boys and sorority chicks from my college days.
But isn’t it right that kids should rebel against the expectations of the older generation? The older generation is all about youth being sex and drugs and youth says “no thank you”. Personally I love the inversion.

It isn’t about rebelling for the simple sake of anarchy; individuality is about finding an inner voice that isn’t necessarily analogous to prevailing trends or commercialism.
Each generation can always seek comfort in what everyone else is doing. Cell phone dependence is a reflection of this. Drugs remain subversive because we still live in Prohibitionist era where fear and control are conceptually much harder to break than mass acceptance of social trends.

^ i think you may be reading too much into this steve.
However, I do agree we are coming disgustingly more dependent on technology and that certainly is a bad thing if we’re going to insist on keeping our traditions. So something is going to have to give because we will either become new slaves, not just to technology but to those that own and control our technology if we insist on keeping ourselves antiquated or we’re going to have to develop new modes of education to keep ourselves relevant with the technology we produce.

(I’m feeling especially philosophical tonight hence the Dr title next to my sig- thank davely for bringing up sociology in the dick clark thread,)
The issue with the conversation of drugs bring about individuality is that often there’s a boring sense of sameness of people in the drug scene. Yes it runs counter to the mainstream but is it simply a case of replacing one for of conformity for another?
My feeling is that some people come into individuality regardless of their means of getting there and conformists come into conformity regardless of their means. There is no preset sure fire shock to the system to come into yourself and the road is littered on every side by people trapped. Can’t say I’ve seen a higher percentage of people trapped by cellphones who are into that scene than I have by people into heroin for people in that scene.
Thinking about this further I come to two conclusions:
-
The current generation always seems to worry about how the next generation will cope. Cellphones/lack of sex and drugs is killing individuality. MTV is killing attention span. No it was rock music that fucked things up. No it was not growing up in the depression. No it was gin. You know you’re getting old when you stop worrying about how you can manage to get The Man off your back and instead you’re concerned about how on earth the kids today are going to make it when they’re doing it all wrong!
-
In some ways I find myself in the fall out of the whole Hassan I Sabbah “nothing is true, everything is permitted” idiom. At first this line of thinking was amazing, like holy shit I can do any drug, fuck any person and it’s all cool! Then I did stuff and realized that rebelling against control isn’t an end in and of itself. Im left with the mirror and myself with nothing in between and how the fuck can I deal with what I see becomes more important than my relation to the world and it’s controls. If externals don’t matter, suddenly what I actually want and what actually makes me feel good is the most banal of sensations: simple happiness. Nothing as grand or cosmic or cool or unique as I had hoped. The uniqueness of me has lessens the happier and more free I get whereas when I spent a lot of time being unique and original I also spent an inordinate amount of time dissatisfied with life.
All of which leads me to say, the kids will probably totally fuck it up and do all right all at the same time, just as we did. Then in 20 years they’ll bitchily compare new music to the great artists of their day (like Skrillex) and wonder how the fuck kids are ever going to grow up okay when all they do is sit around playing with their mood organs and artificially replicating plasma puzzles.
