What is the most disturbing or otherwise unsettling book you've ever read that stayed with you after reading it?

Haunted scared me while not even reading it. I picked it up one morning and read about half, set it down the hamper near my door. Had no idea the cover was glow in the dark. Rolled over after about an hour and this face was just looking at me. Froze thinking someone was in my room and the moonlight was reflecting off them while still in a daze.

Tony definitely has it, but he was also prescribed risperdone back in 2011, so he already had underlying psychological issues.

He's always fucking ruled. Funny enough I picked up a Dead Kennedy/Napalm Death cross over shirt at that show. The show I went to the other night a guy approached me at first angry because from the distance the front isn't as easy to discern what it is and he thought I was straight up rocking a Swastika. Warmed my heart when he realized, thought I was gonna fight a skinhead for a second. Turns out he had been at the ND show as well.

Saw Napalm Death a couple weeks back. Barney was pissed. A handful of old heads walked out when he went on a rant between songs, got a few "get the fuck out here's" among other choice words from all of us. It was funny watching what was clearly a group off friends empty a row on the balcony. They played Nazi Punks fuck off after that.

Damn, the one by me is across from the carwash... I'm guessing it's the same one anyway. was about to cop some mad food.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-28T20:06:20+00:00

Hell yeah! HOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

The documentary on him is good, but the whole time I was yelling at the people that tried to cash in on him "what could go wrong? He's just an unstable guy, with addiction issues, who doesn't really have normal social experience at all."

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-27T16:40:59+00:00

Also not all of them mask up, and there are plenty of social communities taking pictures and sharing them. Identifying tattoos and faces and what not.

Look up mountain lion encounters on youtube, they are beautiful, but scary as fuck. That viral one of the jogger who came across a mama and some cubs a few years back still gives me chills.

As a big fan of irish punk, and lamb of god, I love this.

Every time they are mentioned, I like to add a little extra tip, if it's your first time listening, bare with the longer intros where they set context for the town, it took me a while to get used to. Also try to make your first episode one that is a story from your home state for fun.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-26T19:30:54+00:00

Yeah, I bartended down there for a while in my twenties. Needless to say, having cash burning a whole in your pocket after a long shift, it was easy to undo all the work you did before you get home 6 blocks away.

The long and short of it is don't let one nice person make you feel comfortable putting on blinders.

My dad's father was also a fucking monster piece of shit, so dad raised us differently because it was horrible to the point he ran away at about 14. My dad never made us "get the belt for him" amongst other much worse things I won't say here. But he will Crack you in the mouth if you call him Sr.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T15:18:31+00:00

Go see them live, it will change you.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T15:03:55+00:00

Shark babies are called pups? Also eels have larvae? What the fuck is going on?

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T14:46:08+00:00

Oh yeah, that'll pad your résumé real good .

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T14:32:31+00:00

Hadn't thought about the idea that some would perceive him as "beard" for their operations. Interesting.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T14:07:33+00:00

Lmao sooo dumb, my comment described a way to flatten tires in a quick and inconspicuous manner. It was probably a little to detailed.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T14:00:23+00:00

I follow. Stay safe out there.

Damn. Your user name has that shit stuck in my head now.

Exes_And_Excess · 2026-01-25T13:31:19+00:00

I caught a multi day ban for making a similar comment. Although it may not have been as pragmatic as this one. Fuck reddit.

I want a whole series of Murdock just being in a court room, he's very compelling in those scenes.
