I’ve been slack in my duties both as a blogger and an American. Another mass shooting, and I haven’t posted a thing about it expressing my outrage either at the shooter, or at the reporters for shoving cameras in the faces of traumatized kids, or at Fox News personalities for saying dumb-ass things about it, or at Presidente Obama and other liberal fascists who want to take away all our guns, or whatever else there yr supposed to say at times like these. 

Well, there’s a good reason for that. This is it:

I’ve typed it all before.

Seriously. There’s really nothing new here, apart from the cast of characters, the setting and the body count. Otherwise, it’s the exact same reactions and the exact same arguments presented in the exact same media circus hype that we see in every mass shooting dating back for as long as we’ve had … well, 24-hour news cycles, I suppose. 

We have heard all this before. Repeatedly. And we’ll hear it all again at the next mass shooting – and there will be a next one. And apologies to some of you, but this will be the case even if Presidente Obama outlaws guns tomorrow.

Which he won’t.

So no, I got nothing. It’s all been said before, and it will all be said again. And again and again and again.

But I will post this advertisement for the Bushmaster AR-15.

Because I’m reasonably sure it’s relevant somehow. 

Man up,

That was my first thought when I saw this picture.

I’m kidding, of course.

At least I think I am.

But maybe not.

Take the wheel,

Continuing the Def Xmas countdown …

As you may have noticed, some bands try to write their own Christmas tunes.

As you may also have noticed, not very many of them become holiday standards. Which is why some bands figure it makes more sense to stick to the classics, albeit with a personal twist or gimmick to make it their own.

Like an Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator, say.



Give me that guitar you girly man,

Continuing the countdown to yr new favorite Armageddon …

Here’s one thing to look forward to – after the Apocalypse, Steely Dan will rule the world.

Or what’s left of it.



No more pain and no regrets,

This is dF
