Nancy Grace VS 2 Chainz
It shouldn't surprise anyone that Nancy Grace is a vocal opponent of the legalization of marijuana, placing her at odds with pretty much every rapper. Last night she held an unexpected debate with 2 Chainz, someone who would never be on my short list to go on television and debate anything. I wouldn't even expect him to debate the merits of owning more than one chain.
Revolt of the Water Heaters
They say that if you take acid it stays in your spine forever. And that if you suffer a back injury later in life, it can be released and you’ll trip again. Do you think that’s true?
Riff Raff will take you to prom for 28K - totally worth it
Weirdo rap thing and internet personality Riff Raff has announced a delightful new source of income/getting people to talk about him. Yesterday on Instagram, Mr. Raff announced that for a mere $28,000 he'll make that most special of nights even more special. Yes, Riff Raff will take you to prom. But don't worry, you're not shelling out more than the annual wages of an average Wal-Mart employee just to slow dance with Riff Raff, you also get a limo, hotel suite, freestyle video, and the honor of being all over his Instagram for a week. Not too shabby. Oh, but you do have to be 18.
Double - O - Dumbass
A light afternoon mist poured over a massive manicured lawn. Groups of tables and chairs each with an enormous vase of flowers and two opened bottles of white and red wine were strewn everywhere. They were being attended to by hundreds of 20-30 somethings in white collared shirts. They were the catering. I was a fucking caterer.
It was good money though. I knew walking in I’d be leaving with over $100 and a huge free meal. What I didn’t know was that over the course of the night my friend would reveal a side of him I’d never known before.
Rock In Peace - 10 Bands Definitely Breaking Up in 2015
2015 has begun, and as Kill Pretty’s resident music know it all/sass machine, I think it’s important that we cleanse ourselves of the negative vibes of 2014 as we prepare for the even worse vibes coming in 2015. We can all admit that last year was mostly terrible. Save for a few personal highlights (a couple of friends got married and I ate the world’s largest hot dog), 2014 was full of terrible news. The police murdered people in the streets, we were tricked into caring about a Seth Rogen film, and an entire airplane disappeared. Worst of all, we were inundated with some truly awful music. If you read my last column, you’ll know that I liked a few songs last year but that's about it.
MARVL US Interview Part 2
You have a very specific one liner bus hopper type tag. Is that where it originated? Hopping busses?
That was from scribing bus windows. There are elements to a graffiti letter, right? A. It has gotta look cool B. you gotta do it fast so you can get up in a sick spot and make it look natural. Another kid gave me props for being on so many bus windows. I always had a rock. I didn’t even use the little grinder, scriber tool. That’s cool but in terms of not being caught with a pocketful of utensils or whatever, the best thing is to find a small rock with a sharp side to it right before you get on the bus and when you’re done with it you just chuck it. But basically it’s just from scribing windows and wanting to do it really fast and if you stop and start too much it will look funky.
We Need To Talk About the New Sony Walkman
Hey, are you a 40 year old audiophile with 1200 dollars to burn? Then the Sony Walkman ZX2 is for you good sir.
Hats Off To You, Your Honor By Jon Benito
So unfortunately, between a time span of four months or so, I got picked up by the police for graffiti. The first time I got ACD (charges dropped) in return for six months good behavior. However, the second time I got picked up, I was arrested and held for about sixteen hours until I saw a judge. The ordeal was entertaining to say the least. Outside of the Christian proselytizing with signage telling me to ask Jesus for forgiveness, and the amount of disinformation being proliferated by the police was... Well... Not really surprising. Regardless, I recently had my follow up court date this past Friday, December 19th.
