[deathstrike from hell]

"now mtv owned harmonix" = shudders. thats never good.

the lack of guns and roses, dokken, judas priest, metallica (or any other early thrash), dire straits, queensryche, the cure, the smiths, misfits dissapoints me.

 

[Will Bozarth]

they lack ALOT of bands, but have a decent amount

 

[Metal head87]

I don't care what anyone says, Asia kicks ass

 

[Will Bozarth]

know how i know you're gay?

 

[deathstrike from hell]

know how i know you're gay?

hahaha i cant think of asia without being reminded of the 40yr old virgin.

 

[deathstrike from hell]

round and round will be a GREAT song for the game. and since i've already played hacks with holy diver, they probably figured it'd be a good song for the game.

 

[Metal head87]

know how i know you're gay?

Just because I massaged your prostate, it doesn't mean I'm gay

It was the heeeaat of the moment!

 

[Metalmilitia2000]

I don't care what anyone says, Asia kicks ass

Aisa? How much did they laugh at you when you asked them to frame that poster?

 

[Metal head87]

Huh?

 

[Will Bozarth]

its another 40 Year Old Virgin joke

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

BETWEEN THE VELVET LIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIES
THERE'S A TRUTH THAT'S HARD AS STEEEEEEL, YEEHEAAAH
THE VISION NEVER DIIIIIIEEYIIES
LIFE'S A NEVER ENDIN WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL

Yeah I'm pretty excited for this now.

 

[Metalmilitia2000]

Huh?

Its a quote from 40 year old virgin. He has a framed poster on his wall of an asia album cover and he gets laughed at because of it.

 

[Metal head87]

Ohhh. I vaguely remember that reference. Too bad I hated the movie

 

[Kvlt Wench]

Round and round!
With love we'll find a way just give it time!

 

[Vic Rattlehead]

[Metal head87]

Theres nothing cool about ps3. You could cook a porkchop on the fucking thing. We get more returns on those than you'd ever wanna hear about.
