I'm moving to Turkmenistan
Lip Synching is now banned there. So I won't be hearing either Simpson, however I may choose to look at one of them. I won't be hearing any Eminem. Or most other R&B acts.

Ahhh, sweet talent and ability over Corporate shit.

1. Turkmenbashi is my favorite dictator.
Anyone with a golden statue that rotates to face the sun is OK by me.

He is interested in poetry, philosophy, history and music.

That sentence amuses me to no end. :)

10. Yeah, but since you insisted on making this a pissing contest
(not really, I just wanted to work Ill-Jong into this )

Turkeyomamma didn't shoot a nine on an 18 hole course, the first time ever played golf, like His Excellency Kim Jong-Il

6. Some brilliant artists have engaged in lip-synching
My favorite being Pink Floyd's original appearance on the Pat Boone show, where after doing fine in rehearsals, Syd didn't even bother to sing or play his guitar, and stared wordlessly at Boone for uncomfortably long periods during the interview protion.

:rofl:

9. Oh, right, Pat Boone. Now there's a standard of integrity
:eyes:

No more Mr. Nice Guy? In a "Metal Mood" perhaps? Cashing in on all the rage, maybe? Being a fundie fuck who likes to tell anti-semetic jokes?

Pat Boone deserved all the disrespect he got.

11. It was too perfect
And probably a young Robert Smith was watching and was inspired to get a permanent and raid his mom's makeup drawer.
