Ryan Adams is absolutely a Grade A jackass.  I have the personal experience to back up that assertion.

He's now trolling Keith Urban by trying to get Nicole Kidman's attention.  This screams "off the wagon, again x infinity".

Ryan Adams prints like a 2nd grader?

Not the first time I've seen that scrawl.  He posted it to his own social media.

Summer of 69 was a good song though.

My friend saw him in Nashville eons ago and someone jokingly yelled that out as a request. Ryan got pissed and told him he'd pay him 20 dollars to leave. Guy came up, took Ryan's money then watched the rest of the show from the back of the auditorium.

Have heard that story a time or two as it is the stuff of legend. Saw him a few years ago in Dallas and somebody yelled that out. Ryan chuckled and mentioned that if this was the past he would’ve lost his shit on the guy. The implication is that he was in a much better place. Sexual misconduct allegations and a lagging career later, mixed with booze/pills and he’s back to being the same old asshole. He posted a few weeks ago something that basically he was done performing in America. At least that’s how it read. Used to really dig him but now have very little desire to see him.

I've mentioned it before, but he was at Hole In The Wall one night when my shitty band was playing.  He kept yelling for us to play "Freebird".  I finally took off my guitar and said "you come play it, motherfucker".  He passed.

He's a talent but he's an asshole.  The idea of him getting pissed about people requesting Bryan Adams songs is laughable in light of my experience.

This thread is making me want to put on Gold or Cold Roses. I’ll just pretend I didn’t read that shit above.

I'm not boycotting him.  I'll spin some Whiskeytown or "Gold" now and again.  The songs are great, and I already bought the product.

Found out last night one of my friends that I see socially once every couple of months is a magat. I brought up the stupidity of the Abbott rainbow crosswalk thing and he immediately went into defense mode. Used the “I just don’t like that they have to shove it in our faces” line. 
 

I was pretty shocked and luckily his other friend was there and much better than me at articulating why his ideas were heinous. I am still shocked at how many of them are hiding among us.

Seems a rather disproportionate fraction of these young GOP racist/radicals are guinea wop dago greaseballs.

I use the slur for teh lulz but also to point out that it wasn't so long ago we had a bunch of different ethnic out groups and I believe that sort of thing cometh again, and that right soon.

I work with a guy that thinks he's going to unseat Gabe Evans in the republican primary for a House seat. He's a dago WOP bastard. A couple weeks ago I was agast as he was talking to a couple of new hires, a white female and a black male, about the white replacement theory and why we have to get all these illegals out.

"They were just joking!"

This is something someone who doesn't understand the difference between "jokes" and "things fascists find funny" would say. Jokes have punchlines which are funny in part because they're clever endings that the listener did not expect. Things fascists find funny is the exact moronic malevolent shit that a listener would expect from fascists.

Yep.  And there's a difference between some "that's just wrong" shit and this shit they are saying.  Context matters as well.

If someone on Surly says "man, Hitler jokes are a gas," that's FIRMLY in the "that's just wrong" arena, but NOBODY could reasonably take it as an endorsement/approval in any way, shape, or form, of the evils of naziism.  These fuckers....as they actively support the exact sort of tactics, information manipulation, lies, etc. used by the nazis and other fascist regimes, as WELL as the context of the posts themselves....well, they aren't fucking jokes.
