This is war sir! *slaps Lambeth with his glove.*
Was I supposed to take my hand out of the glove first? I can never remember that. The brass knuckles are ok though right?

Gamerscore is failfail.
Aaand...In addition to what Yut said: Left 4 Dead, Saint's Row 2, and...Yeah. XD
Quoted for truth and because Saint's Row 2 is THE best co-op experience ever. Get a friend and trash the city together, you will not be dissapointed.

The formula for figuring out if a band is "punk" is very simple.
Major label = not punk. The two are completely 100% mutually exclusive.
Having performed any song or songs with the use of orchestral backing = not punk (the Ramones get a buy on this one because it was done at gun point, Phil Spector is a whack job...)
Other criteria can also be used to further whittle down your contendors but it's sort of like buying a Rolls Royce, if you have to ask...
No other genre is shot through with posers more than punk which is sad since punk is more about pure attitude than any other genre, making punk posers some of the saddest losers on the planet.
Punk was/is about the refusal to accept the mainstream, it's about doing it yourself regardless of lack of technical prowess. It's about picking up a guitar with a fistful of rage and writing music despite how many people tell you that you can't. It's not about huge record sales or tons of fans, it's about the experience. Punks were the true outlaws of the music scene, seeing hack pukes like Green Day marketed as punk makes me sick to my fucking stomach.

Today I learned I have way more self control than I ever thought I could have and the douche who is currently not in the hospital or the morgue right now has no idea how close he came to death and or maiming.
I fucking hate having to deal with problems like a rational reasonable person, some situations call for extreme violence and I feel personally cheated that I was presented with one and took the higher road.
TIL there is no satisfaction in taking the higher road.
