this thread is in reply to bodomic asking me about my sig pic. its also for anybody wondering what the hell "tharsh eats balls" might be.
the 2 guys holding that sign are adam duce(left, bass) and dave mcclain(right, drums) of machine head.
THARSH is a member of the machine head board. he also posts every now and then on the testament board and you can also find him swinging from exodus' nutsacks over on their new board. his actual username is THRASHIQ. there used to be a really long and detailed explanation about it, but ezboard loves the cock and blows donkey nuts, so i can't find it. fortunately, there is a very condensed version that i'm copy/pasting over to here from the MH board.
"Tharsh Eats Balls" began somewhere in the year 2000, when the user "Thrashiq" (who originally hails from Bangladesh) was accidently referred to as "Tharsh" by the user "Subterfuge". The mistake was hilariously pointed out by the user "Eor" (funniest person to ever grace our board). A few months later, "Tharsh" admitted to having eaten the testicles of a certain animal while at a restaurant, and the term was born...and stuck.
In January, 2001, "Primusbill" immortalized the phrase on a Jerry Cantrell bootleg, which started the craze of "Tharshing" (getting pictures of people holding signs that say "Tharsh eats balls"...a tradition started by "Henning"). Over the next few years, and to this day, the phrase has exploded in popularity, even resulting in its own website and line of stickers at one point. Hell, even Machine Head themselves have endorsed it, on multiple occasions[as seen in my sig]
hopefully that'll help clear it up for you. :Spin:
hell, there's even a vid of andy sneap saying the famous phrase
