Welcome to the Black House

So after about a week off and no really good entries, I am back to entertain you retards in what can only be described as the nether regions of the internet (I'm the balls, Monday Morning Hangover is the asshole, and Perez Hilton would fit somewhere around the grundle I think).

So the silly election is finally over and hopefully people will go back to being blissfully apathetic for the next four years until Barack Obama rises at the inauguration as the black anti-Christ or some shit that I read on a myspace bulletin. And this, hopefully, will be the last time I have to talk about politics ever again. I'm excited. I think we're setting ourselves up for a better place than we've been in the past 8 years, although I'm fully aware that it's going to take a lot of work. Anyway, end politics. Now

So let's play the list awesome things that Joe did this weekend game:
Shotgunned beers
Ate pizza, calzones, and burritos almost exclusively.
Shotgunned beer inside of a portapotta
Tried a falaffel and hummus gyro for the firs time
Saw Rehasher
Saw Ann Berretta but don't remember it
Warehouse shows
Shotgunned two beers inside of a Cheveron
SAW LEATHERFACE
Frankie Stubbs=voldemort
Almost drunken tattoo
Paint it Black in the back of a fucking uhaul
Horse cops
shotgunning beers in front of The Venue
Municipal Waste is gonna FUCK YOU UP
Atom and His Package
Crust-punk sorority cutie
New Lawrence Arms and Swellers songs!
Essentially the best weekend ever.

I won't go into more details than that, but this weekend was pretty much unbelievable. The Fest is always a great time (and I say this after two times of going). It's kinda funny to see the crowd there though, especially some of the Plan-It-X kids.

For those not in the know, Plan-it-X is a record label notorious for recording and signing really like anarchist folksy bands like Defiance, OH and stuff like that. And their fans are all pretty goofy I guess you could say. None of their fans really bother to shower, wear deodorant, or brush their teeth. I guess they are trying to not support the idea of corporations and what not. So they bike everywhere (I guess because Shwinn is alright!), and like to live in abandoned houses and what not and usually are strict vegan and probably smoke Skydancers. I mean I dunno, do what you want, but I just think it's pretty goofy to be upping the punx by not maintaining hygeine. I mean, if we measure how punk rock things are by how much they piss off your grandmother, which I like to do, then not showering or adhereing to basic hygeine would probably be the most punxxx thing you could ever do. But I mean, that shits just kinda gross. In fact, here's a fun little list. How about best ways to still "fuck the man, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan" and still maintain hygeine.

Vote
Easy way. Yes, I just mentioned that politics suck, but voting for a third party candidate that you agree with is the best way to eventually (and hopefully) morph this country into a 3-4 major party system. Go out there and do it!

Take the bus, or ride a bike
Save money, and don't buy gas all at the same time. Brilliant.

Shop at local grocery stores or farmers markets
You can find a lot of good stuff here generally, and it is also from all local places, so you aren't helping out the conglomerates.

Run for office
Hey, it's getting more shit done than not showering is.

Shop at thrift stores
That way you are only supporting the MAN indirectly.

Hell, I can't think of any others. I guess I'm not org enough. Well fuck my life wholly. I'm gonna go not take a shower and then go get my cellphone fixed.
