“Cop Rock” was a smash hit compared to some of the other stillborn shit of the era. Anyone mourning the early cancelation of FISH POLICE?
Maybe it’s a bunch of cops that form a band. And they travel in one of their police vans and keep getting mistaken for being the other Police. I’d probably watch that.
Dave Brockie (Oderus Urungus) and some of the other GWAR dudes had a side project called The X-Cops. It was hilarious. They were all corrupt cartoon parodies of various cop stereotypes and with Dave’s sick humor . . . well, it was pretty good.
BUT SERIOUSLY . . . . back on topic . . .
WHERE IS THIS GROUNDBREAKING SIT COM WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
Peligro, can you quit crying about Grumpy exposing your less-than-secret secrets for 5 minutes and give us some good 'ol fashioned entertainment?
We’re losing interest fast . . . .
Ice, Gunnar, queerbait, I’ll gladly take you up on that if I make it over this August. And thanks, because I was paranoid everyone on this board was convinced I’d catfished them. It’d be good to hook up over FB because I’m on that most of the time.
Grmpy… I suspected you were trolling, like when you were ‘humouring’ Gerda. You pretty all but confirmed it by acknowledging Peligro DJ’s on that radio station.
And, I genuinely had no idea that he’d already mentioned it. So, go and listen tonight at 12am Melbourne time, or any other Wednesday morning/midnight and listen to his show at Southern Fm http://www.southernfm.com.au/… You can live stream it and be sure to tune in a few minutes beforehand, where the preceding presenter often refers to ‘Daniel’ himself.
You can hear his voice, compare it to recordings where I’ve been interviewed and make up your own mind. Hell, why not send it to NASA for spectral analysis if you’re going to put all this effort and thought into it.
Now…
You’d think… you would think that if I had some involvement with a radio show over a number of years, it’d be all over my facebook, LinkedIn, instagram, etc etc.
I’ve never DJ’d in my life and the most involvement I’ve had with radio shows is pestering them to promote my gigs.
You’re not stupid and I’m guessing you’d have at least considered this scenario. So, with that in mind, why the trolling? We’ve had little to no beef with each other in the 12 years I’ve been posting on here and Piss Army.
Yep, it’s a huge coincidence that there’s two Dan’s in Melbourne posting about Ministry with a similar taste in music. As for the ‘similar writing style’, I don’t quite get where you’re coming from with that? The fact we use grammar, punctuation and have at least a basic grasp of syntax? Do tell, you’re the English teacher. One thing worth noting; you didn’t observe that I’m basically diametrically opposed to Peligro politically. He’s more right-wing than I can handle sometimes and he constantly criticises my more left-leaning views, even though I don’t consider myself as such.
As for not posting any evidence, do I have to reiterate?
I’ve posted photos of him, of us together, Facebook messages, private forum messages, text messages and to top it off, part of his real name (not his entire name, as you suggested).
When you say I could just pull any old obituary out of the paper, you’re wrong, actually. A relative of his posted about it on FB and tagged him and other relatives with a funeral notice. There were condolences posted by dozens of FB friends.
Now… I could post that and share it, but I’m not desperate enough to prove a point to you by betraying Peligro’s family’s privacy. It’s a dark enough thing to do anyway.
You and I both know that making a fake facebook for an entire family of people that revolve around Peligro’s ‘fake facebook’, whilst deceiving dozens of people with a death notice of someone that doesn’t exist, is highly implausible. And then, to take it further and spend money on posting a death notice in the city’s newspapers… just to continue with catfishing a small forum on the internet.
If you consider that, it’s implausible. Not impossible, but definitely implausible.
And while I’m at it…
It’s impossible for me to post from a ‘work’ computer since… I don’t have one. I make a living solely off playing music and it doesn’t involve computers. As for visiting the local library… you can take my word for it, but I can’t even find my membership card and only went once to do some photocopying, despite having one down the road.
The whole thing you wrote about being ‘pseudo famous’ and wanting to protect my image doesn’t revolve around that. I’d prefer if I’m going to reveal my real name that I don’t attract any kind of negativity, since there could be repercussions in real life. Simple as that. That especially applies to having the views of someone like Peligro intrinsically linked to me. There’s shit he’s said in the past that’s just left me shaking my head in total disagreeance with, but that isn’t enough for me to write someone off. However, I don’t share the same views or ideas and would rather not have any association with them.
As for the sarcastic comment about ‘hitting the jackpot and making it huge with music’, I’m pretty happy with being able to live off it so far. It hasn’t been easy, and at risk of sounding like I’m gloating, that’s all the success I want. Like I said… I don’t get off on making people feel small, and people who chase fame/fortune/whatever often have an inferiority complex that sees them behave in that way. The same kind of pathology underlies catfishing, IMHO.
Another thing- I am genuinely someone who is pressed for time. I literally work around the clock on music and writing, whether it’s paid or not. If I’m not doing that, I’m going to show, playing poker or spending time with mates/family. So, I’ve been a bit of a lurker on prongs. There was one point where Peligro told me that people on Prongs had been asking where I was, I ducked in. Then I drop off the radar because it gets quiet here and life gets very hectic.
That said, when I lurked recently and saw that thread about the Claremont Killer being Peligro, I laughed my arse off. I genuinely found that to be hilarious. Then I comment and this just explodes. Since then… I’ve been making more time to engage with this discussion than I really should. After this post, I’m not even going to bother entertaining the discussion or arguing my point any further simply because I’ve got nothing left to give. I’m shown as much proof as I possibly can without relinquishing Peligro’s full surname and dragging his family into it. That’s where I draw the line and if you remain unconvinced, I can live with that. Besides, there’s no point getting angry over something you can’t control. I wish I’d taken a bit of my own advice when I lost my shit in that other thread, but the truth was that I was having an absolute cunt of a day and I took out on the computer, rather than anyone else.
In short… grmpy, give it a break. I’ll change the DP and name since it was pretty childish, but if you want to persist with this idea that I’m Peligro, you’re actually making yourself look crazier than what I could possibly do for either you or myself. I couldn’t care less if you remain unconvinced, because it changes nothing in my mind. I haven’t deceived anyone like this and I don’t plan on starting any time soon.
But if you stack up the ‘proof’ you’ve provided against what I’ve provided, yours leans more towards implausibility than mine.
-that I photoshopped all of those messages
-convinced some random guy in the neighbourhood to take photos with me pretending to be Peligro over the course of two years
-hell, even apparently looking like a younger version of ‘Olsen’
-getting a DJ slot at a local radio station, but not saying anything about it on any of my personal pages for years, except for the sole purpose of telling people on prongs about it
-catfishing dozens of people on facebook with an entirely fake family of people who’ve been recently bereaved and then posting a fake obituary for someone who doesn’t exist in the newspaper…
all for the sake of catfishing a handful of Ministry fans on a quiet forum…
…come on dude. Enough with the trolling and derive some pleasure from having made me waste enough time on arguing a very obvious case. Then again, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if I check in a few days to see you remain utterly unconvinced and carry on with this whole thing. Nonetheless, it’d be disappointing.
Ahhhhh, shhhhiiiiiiitt, Dildo.
Same avatar, almost same name, and now a 50,000 word 32 page reply about shit no one else cares about . . . you’re clearly trying to make us all think you’re Grumpysmurf now.
I genuinely laughed out loud. [laugh]
and yep…
I kept to my word. Order is restored.
What an abysmal failure this sitcom turned out to be.
Canceled before the pilot even aired.
Guess they blew their wad on marketing the thing and never got around to actually making something.
Oh, well. I’m sure it was going to suck anyway.
Yeah,even Cop Rock had a better run…
The fucking CHEVY CHASE show had a better run.
Magic Johnson show…
Bumping this thread as it came up on Facebook the other day. A pretty funny re-read.
“The Last Hurrah of the Australian(s).”
lol the Aussies on this board used to crack me up. Peligro was the really smarmy edgelord kid who listened to nothing but obscure avant-garde crap, the other one I can’t remember his name, the pretty boy just tried too hard to put himself over.
They were ALL the same guy.
The pretty boy try-hard character (also played by “Peligro”) was OLSEN.
Great stuff, haha.
So the official tally was: Peligro, Olsen and Evil Dildo were all the same person.
Wasn’t there one more?
Yeah “traylor trash” or something like that and “stairwell” i think were another two. Forgot about the Amlux account and ambulance, too
This shit was fun!!! I forgot all about it!! Too fucking funny.
We should dig up the court thread where Gunnar was the judge and Peligro just shit all over the bed and confessed to being Olsen… Mrs. Smrf said Gunnar said on a facebook exchange that I “matlocked the hell out of that case.” LOL. Goddamn that’s funny.
Troyler Trash, I think.
Peligro was Evil Dildo? Jesus, I took years away from the board and WTF happened? I got interested in Daniel whatever his name is and so I googled him and he pretty much disappears around the same time as this thread with just like one show after. Was this a real life mental breakdown for him? He really did seem to take the accusations really seriously and his few posts after this thread have a sort of forced jocularity to them. It takes a certain sort of brain to be able to play the piano that fast…
