The what's going on in Thrash thread

[redfly]

Seems to me there is still a truth there that hasn't been revealed. It's easy to call it suicide, it's easy to make judgement on the words offered, but typical of Blabber the story is not all there. Usually it's not all there because Blabber only go for the headline but in this case I kind of hope it's because they don't have the full story! That's between Mike and his family, no one else and the reason it's between them only is because too many fuckwits on the internet try and guess what happened then claim it as fact.

Yeah for sure. I wonder if he was in pain from 20 years of contract work. My buddy got hooked in that way by Dr's who would just bounce him with different prescriptions to manage the pain. His mood was really all over the place and scary sometimes. He really wasn't himself.
Anyway. The family will disclose what they want to or not. As it should be.

Damned If You Do

Oh yeah. That's what I meant. Especially Monkey Finger.

 

[Slammed]

Hmm, Idk. I assumed it was about Mike and it's FB so I didn't click.

It is FB but I can't seem to get anything from it.

Speaking of piss poor handlings and shitty ways in which people do things....well it's kind of related

The way TMZ reported and played the 911 call of Joey's girlfriend (the dude from Slipknot), is fucking atrocious. Not only is it disrespectful and not needed it's the sort of shit that sites like Blabber feed off. Sure Blabber can take the high road and constantly remind people that it wasn't them who broke it, but they still give TMZ a voice. That in turns gives fuckwits world wide a chance to spin their own story about what they think they know and claim it as fact.

I know it wont ever stop, I know TMZ is a festering pit of scum, which thankfully doesn't air here any more, but the disrespect these sorts of 'news' people show others is a joke and it rubs off on Joe Wanker - Internet commentor who isn't just content in spreading the story but has to make more out of the limited facts that are there. "I know what happened." "It happened because..." "If X happened then Y is the outcome" To many wannbe be experts think they know everything about everything and they are no better than TMZ, the only thing I'll give TMZ is that they do check facts to cover their arse, the internet wanker doesn't care.

I know a few guys who got addicted to heavy pain killers because they were prescribed. It's a bad thing and one of the reasons I refused pain killers after my shoulder surgery, of course now days I'm half fucked and can't take many painkillers because I have an ulcer so that kinda worked out well? maybe? I don't know

Yeah, let the family deal with things as they see fit. Fans don't need the full story to mourn.

Lucky that Vault collection thing was an improvement on Damned, even if it wasn't great, but having Damned as your last album would suck

Explanation as to why the FB post Neptune linked to was removed.

Edit: Fucking hell, it's not hard to see why they deleted their post if the comments on Blabber are anything to go by! I see one person having a go at one of those "google pays me" bots on a post about someone dying, but realistically I think those posts have more respect that some of the so called fans.

Yeah absolutely. I think one of themost shocking things are the people who defend TMZ saying well, it's what they dr, the recording wasn't even that bad. That doesn't make it morally Acceptable Imagine that happening to one of their loved ones.

It does make one wonder how such morons would react if it was one of their loved ones the rest of the world was talking about. Of course the tough guy from the internet would probably say something like "i'm fine with that because I'm a A leaguer" or some such other inane shit.

I don't think there was damn thing wrong with their statement. Talking about the evils of Big Pharma is not political. But sticking up for such an uncaring bottom line business should get people ostracized. This is all because of Dave fucking Wight. He threw up a big ole stink about it. Saying it's disgusting the band are cowards. They tarnished Mike's legacy. From a mother fucker that knows one fucking song that got recommended to him last year by Alexa!! And two days ago admitted he knows nothing about Mike Howe. He wanted fucking attention and gave shit to a band that is grieving and got THEM to apologize to him!! Holy fucking hell I am so pissed off. And now he's on Blabber telling everyone how they apologized to him!
I wrote the label and told them all about him. And they are going to let the band know. They don't need to cary extra pain because of this piece of shit.

Oh you can bet it would be a completely different story! Seriously the metal community needs to start coming down on this asshole.

Yeah I saw that comment and wondered what the fuck he was on about. I didn't for a second think anyone messaged him but I was wondering where it came from. I'm not surprised he was part of the problem, the guy is a complete dick! I'm glad some people call him out occasionally but he's such an ego maniac. Unlike the person who just has to be right and just has to have a factoid no one else does he doesn't care about right or wrong, just attention. Good on you for emailing them and letting them know.

I think the problem is that for every one person that does say something against him he creates another persona to agree with himself. While it looks like he's got the support of a few, even if they are clearly him, he's going to keep being able to feed whatever drive he has.

Yeah it's no joke. That kind of stuff can really take a person by surprise.

Shit man ulcers are no fun!

 

[Slammed]

Mine isn't too bad, it flares if I eat too much acidic stuff like oranges and tomatoes etc. On the odd occasion it's knocked me about enough to not eat for 24 hours and once I actually needed to go to the doctor but in general it only seems to give me grief maybe once a year. I just have to be careful with pain killers and the like, IBProfrine is okay but codine and heavier is a no no so I tend to not take pain killers at all.

Oh yeah he will. But I'd still like to see some real metalheads tell this guy off on a regular basis. Him and that Ellsworth who seems to think that because Howe is white and his wife a professor or something that he shouldn't have any problems. That dude should be busy sucking off black dudes for money. And by that I mean he's paying.

I would say massive narcissism coupled with being a sociopath. Of course I'm no Dr. But I'm calling it anyway. He just spreads misery around the community just for attention. It's sickening.
Yeah, thank you .I'm glad I did too. They didn't deserve that shit, especially by someone seeking attention and doesn't actually give a shit. I almost didn't because MC doesn't have a website. So I took a shot with the label. I've had a few back and fourths with them in the past. They are pretty nice.
I'm so sick of this dude getting away with everything.

Damn. Well I'm glad it doesn't give you too much grief! So you can't pizza binge?! No one deserves that! Well almost no one.

Actually the guy is an A League troll because if you notice he really doesn't respond to the worst insults and attacks. He knows how to attack everything and everyone, and he'll bite back on some things but if someone gets serious more responses come from other people.

It's kind of weird too because as much as he talks shit about anyone and anything I don't think I've seen him attack one person like he has Mike. His fight with Dee a few weeks ago was just insults and rubbish comments but his attack on Mike is extremely personal.

The way he has thrown his personal attacks at Mike I think you're justified throwing a few at him, besides isn't your doctorate due in a few weeks

The annoying thing is that I doubt they can do much. If they respond a war could start and that helps no one. The only hope they might have is that they can push Blabber for some sort of non-compliance with bands on their label but with FB accounts so easy to come by it's hardly going to stop the prick. Still, you never know maybe they know some hitmen or something

The sauces and stuff on pizza don't seem to start anything, if it flairs up it can make it worse but I guess the acid levels are less when it's cooked or something. The problem usually only comes up after a few days of doing things like eating too many oranges. It kind sucks because I'll eat them for a week without drama and without thinking too much, or worse thinking I'll be fine, then it smacks me in the gut and reminds me to stop doing it. Usually if I take it easy for the next few days, cut down salt, citrus, food with strong acids I can live through it.
