Thorp and Sailor's Grave Board

The funniest thing just happened to me

Discipline - 9-7-2006 at 08:28 PM

I decided that i felt like tossing back some drinks tonight so I ran out to the liquor store and got some beers and a bottle of whiskey.

Here's the funny part.

As I was walking to my car two kids, about 15 or 16, were walking past me. One of them looked at the Bruisers shirt I'm wearing and said "The Bruisers, that's the band with the singer that sounds like a fag!" His friend was quick to agree as well as add some comments of his own. I was about to give them a lesson in etiquette with a steel-toe to the head when I noticed they were both wearing nice new Dropkick Murphy's shirts. The irony was not lost on me.

I asked if they knew who the singer of the Bruisers was, they said that faggot guy. I asked if they knew the name of DKM's singer. They said Al Burr. I said no, it's Al BARR, and he was the singer for the Bruisers. They said I was stupid and didn't know shit about "real" punk rock.

Needless to say, I laughed at them as I walked away.

A friend of mine was DJ'ing a Ska night at a bar here in town and my buddy and me were tossing back drinks sitting at a table and this kid comes and sits down at the table behind and he's bitching to his friend about the DJ. So I cocked up my ears, and he's saying to his buddy, "I fuckin' requested The Bosstones and he won't play the fuckin Bosstones. The Bosstones invented Ska." I had quite a little chuckle.

This thread is hilarious.

SlobDylan - 9-7-2006 at 09:45 PM

It's just sad. No sense of history at all in too many of these kids.

Another tale of idiocy for you. I was at a show once back in the late 90's. I think it was Blood For Blood. I was walking past a table full of of 8 16-17 year old kids. They were ALL wearing Sick Of It All shirts. Made me laugh cause all of the shirts looked brand spanking new, like "hey, we're going to a hardcore show, let's wear our hardcore shirts." As I was walking past they were all looking at me and one of them said "holy shit, there's a skinhead here!" As always I laughed my drunken ass off. I asked them if they knew anything about hardcore., They claimed to be the biggest fans of said genre. I had to inform them that I was not the only skinhead at the show, and that without skinheads hardcore wouldn't be what it is. They looked very confused. I asked if they had ever heard of bands like Agnostic Front or the Cro-Mags. They looked very confused.

Idiot kids.

Goddamnit I'm going to regret this. As most likely the only "kid" who posts here I have to say,not all of us are dumbasses. Granted I despise most of the people my age and their taste in music, there are some of us out their who actually try to have some knowledge about about music.

How old are ya? I am only 19 myself.

Discipline - 9-8-2006 at 02:23 AM

I'll be 30 in a couple of months and I see this all the time. Realize that my last post is referring to a show in the late 90's. Shit ain't changed.

I'm exactly twice as old as morgan.
And stay outta' the porn thread young man!

crazyfists28 - 9-8-2006 at 07:44 PM

i think the bruisers/dkm story is absolutely priceless

upyerbum - 9-8-2006 at 10:02 PM

And they were completely clueless to their own idiocy. That just makes it funnier. Hopefully they smarten up and it becomes one of their "when I was a stupid poseur" stories.

don't sweat the age thing here morgan. there are few people on this board in their teens, and it's clear that you all are top-notch people.

Much appreciated. Seen too many boards where your age is immediate grounds for being shitted on.

upyerbum - 9-9-2006 at 02:10 PM

Shat upon. I don't think anyone on here cares how old you are. I believe the youngest poster is mere weeks old.

BDx13 - 9-11-2006 at 01:34 PM

dave's kid is four or five month's now, but yeah, he's welcome, too.

sinister - 9-12-2006 at 05:51 PM

Hahaha, this thread is amazing. Stupid fuckin' kids.
