Subtle Bluntness

I can only imagine how many revolutions per minute Kurt is doing in his grave right now, knowing that R-Patz is going to play him in a Nirvana biopic.  I hope this doesn’t happen.  (Especially since Courtney is involved in the project in an official capacity, which means they’ll leave out the part of the [...]

A friend of mine got on me about my recent lack of Feel Good Friday, so rather than torture him with some Mr. Trololo or Crispin Hellion Glover, I decided to put the fear of God into him.  Or at least, put the Fear of Fear into him.
