Does anyone else find it a bit odd that people on a BDSM site would complain about an arts grant to Robert Mapplethorpe? But they would, in all probability condone such funding going to some anti-sex religiously based art instead?

Curiouser and curiouser...

I find it a strange thought, true enough, but then I've seen people arguing in favour of censorship on horror messageboards as well. No idea how that one works, either.

I would like one of those canons I keep hearing so much about, but I"m pretty sure those don't shoot anything.

Barrista Ballistas!  we shoot snotty drama student bitches serving lattes in black plastic framed elvis costello glasses and skinnyfit jeans at Obie Wan Bama worshippers for being UNAMERICAN!

and we paint swastikas over their trampstamps!


First Kate Bush, now Elvis Costello....I'm impressed. If reading your posts didn't make me feel a little like listening to nadstadt (It was me and my three droogs enjoying the old miloko plus and getting ready for a bit of the old ultraviolence real horrorshow), we could have a great conversation.

Or in other words, if you don't have health insurance why the hell are you even able to post here ? Certainly health insurance is a more important responsibility than Internet connectivity (or cell phone, cable, or car payment, ad infinitum).

Go out and price it, compadre.  Especially if there's been a gap in coverage and you have any (at all) pre-existing conditions.  Or just a gap in your coverage.  Add a few kids for fun.

I can see where cars are more important than health insurance (no car, no job in most places).

BTW, I have insurance, so I guess I'm permitted to post.

I was sent this... thought it could make for interesting reading, though i dont believe it deserves its own thread. Almost makes me feel... pity...

OKAY, spinner, ala stand up, will you PLEASE inform Mr . "I find it a strange thought, true enough, but then I've seen people arguing in favour of censorship on horror messageboards as well. No idea how that one works, either" and the goodly man who thought I was bagging Maple Syrup* on a censorship level that I was actually doing my Mad TV "mock the conservatives" schtick?  Like Richard Pryor or Fliop Wilson mocking an uptight Bostonian banker?

good god, it feels like only you, me, and kitten are the only folks in this thread whom  have actually PAID MONEY to see good anti-establishment stand-up.

I mean, I paid for TREE, man, remember him, in the early 90's?

I actually answered one of his rhetorical questions he poses in his act (he left the pregnant pause too long, so too bad) and made the audience roar and HE laughed too, breaking out of character and breaking the Fourth Wall.

THAT was a good moment.  But, help me out here.  Maple Syrup's rights RE censorship, I was never discussing except satirically, but I have to be honest and not defend the artistic "quality" of his work if it is limited.

BTW, moonhead, I am not in favour of censorship and I've probably drawn more NASTY horror stuff tan you could shake a stick at, including Mortician students (around 20 years old) fucking madly ontop of a GRAVESTONE in a revered cemetary.
But see, that was written by  GOOD writer, and Maple Leaf is a BAD artist.

If the right to bear arms thing was going to reflect the circumstances when the country was founded, presumably it shouldn't cover anything besides smoothbore muskets?
(Also, my understanding was that the notion of an armed population was seen as preferable to a standing army, as is is the situation in Switzerland. The 'States has had quite a big army for a long while now, so it's a redundant amendment under the terms it was set up on.)

From what I've read, gun ownership was rare at the time of the revolution.  There was no mass production at the time, and there were no standardised weapons in the revolutionary army. 

I wonder what the 2nd amendment authors would think of the assortment of weapons available today.

Chill, effendi. I thought you might be on the wind up, and I just mentioned that as another example of the bizarre double standard you mentioned and rightly have a problem with, okay?
(Mapplethorpe isn't a very good artist, but he did do some very good photography when he was still doing commercial work. He managed a few very good album covers, Marquee Moon in particular.)



HatesParisHilton -> RE: Glen Beck and rush Limbaugh. (10/3/2009 6:36:34 AM)

Oh, yeah, the Marquee Moon cover still stands up.  and I like effendi, I think it's a lovely word that should be used more often.  Stan the Man used it back in the 60's, in fact.

which makes me wonder why Kevin Smith didn't swipe it as an homage motif.  Hm.

Of course I have to admit that when it comes to horror art , Basil Golgos will ALWAYS be the King.  He is the Elvis of Horror painting.

Now, spinner, c'mon, I mean ~ "If reading your posts didn't make me feel a little like listening to nadstadt (It was me and my three droogs enjoying the old miloko plus and getting ready for a bit of the old ultraviolence real horrorshow), we could have a great conversation"...
 
But of course, mon ami.  That's what posting is FOR, yet one more expressive enterprise.  I don't paint to merely illustrate, I never write to merely communicate, I EVOKE, baby, I evoke.

I also INVOKE but that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.

But as you and I share a mescal milk while we waltz in our bowler hats down Kubrick luvviin' memory Lane, might I spike your nasty-nice-nice with a hallucinogenically-treated spritz of Matt Johnson, particularly  the albums Infected and the one after that, JUST because we know how much Sanity and Heretic would utterly grind their teeth to the concepto-groove of the Mightily Masestic The The?

Now MATT, HE was a true "we ain't gonna let the Cons steal our bread and souls" guy.
