Buddy, I gotta stop ya right there...

Friends don't let friends say "311" (and "Sublime" for that matter) that many times in a 24 hour period without intervening... yer startin' to sound like the friend we all know is ghey, but is always saying, "Whaaaaaaat?!?!?! I'm not ghey!"... sure buddy, sure...

Would it help if I told you I got into an altercation with the drummer, Bud, at a backstage event at one of their shows? Technically it was the band they formed after the lead singer died, but a friend of mine had connections at a place called the Milk Bar in Jax and I was invited to the after party.
Long and short, I was only 17 and—may surprise you—was lit. He was acting like a toolbag, I called him out on it and it almost went nuclear before I was asked to leave. The basist, Eric, who was cool, apologized and threw me a shirt as I was escorted out. :lol:

The answer is,
John Candy No GIF by Laff


I actually just looked up the date (tried to find a clip of the video) because I remember watching the show, but in 1999, MTV did a "25 lamest videos of all time" with Denis Leary and a couple of others where they played the list and commented throughout the videos (it was the show where Vanilla Ice tore up the set when he was #1)...

When they got to the Zoolander song (it would be ghey to actually type it out), Denis Leary very simply, and very slowly, said, "How did we not know...? How.... did we not... know???"
:lol:

Thanks for the John Candy meme. One of my all time favorite actors.
What could have been……

Code words... all I see are code words... you forgot to put "..." around all of those words.

BIngo.

90s and 2000s music were ****, with very few exceptions. It isnt played much now and wont be played at all soon. Good luck tuning past the classic rock and metal stations to find some 90s slit your wrists grunge.

Back to the topic: REO Speedwagon can rot in hell.
That girl with the 80’s big hair you were infatuated with that turned down a ride in the Cordoba…she broke you, didn’t she? If it helps any, “Keep on Lovin’ You” puts me in a rager as well.
