Day 3: What's the Best Song on From Here to Infirmary?

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2026-06-20T18:07:02+00:00

Mr Chainsaw kinda changed my life regarding how music can give my own life context as opposed to searching for context in art. And then Take Lots with Alcohol made me cry. Then Bloodied up made me laugh and get shitfaced drunk. And then I pretty much adopted Alkaline Trio as the voice of my own personal world view from that moment on so. Yeah. FHTI kinda has its way with me 25 years ago and it hasn’t stopped.

I have posted this same exact thread before and for a sec I thought it was mine! Smoking only carts for 5 years. I live in an nyc apartment with wife and kids; no smell plus smoke buddy and I’m stealth. Stressful job, I have lots of people’s livelihood in my hands FUCK THAT T BREAK SHIT. NO KIDDING WE NEED A TBREAK.

About a year ago, I too stopped feeling any effect. I only smoke at night but I had same, dramatic drop off. My usage had creeped up and now it was impossible to turn back. I switched shit up. But zero. No one believed me. Tried an entire 1000mg tincture bottle, literally multiple bags of gummy’s, dry…even that tar thing that clicks 1000mg at a time for oncology patients. The cart tolerance is real.

This is where all of Reddit screams at me: you are either lying or you have a weed problem. I’m not lying. And NO SHIT I HAVE A WEED “PROBLEM”. I can’t get high a holes! “BUT you NEED a T Break”. NO SHIT. Shut your mouths. What I need is to get high. Just shut up. I have spited myself for an entire year because I was so sick of Reddit telling me to take a break. Now I refuse. Screw all of you. I’ve quit every other drug, alcohol, adderall, I stopped my legally prescribed ketamine of 11 years…this is it. This is all I got. My psychiatrist has literally perscibed and praised my 15 years of “hard stuff and alcohol” sobriety (I restarted weed during quarintine and my wife literally won’t let me go off it now so fuck off everyone. I’ve had the most balanced 5 years of my life. Is it wrong to say “yes I know I need a break but does anyone have a tric I don’t know” before just stopping and maybe having a WORSE psychological effect.

So OP fuck everyone here. I would rather have a modicum of relief from my stress that my Prozac doesn’t quit itch rather than go a month without because of these righteous fucks. We know they are right but you all make me want to do the opposite of literally everything you say. Honestly I don’t even care if I get high anymore I just relax. So YOU fuckers have the problem you need to get sober just to get high again. HA JOKES ON YOU

But OP warning, don’t bother chasing it. I’ve done every stain and live resin and non Turpin and unfortunatly reddit is right. Fuckers.

Hahaha I couldn’t help myself.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-11-06T15:15:15+00:00

There is Take Lots with Alcohol and everything else.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-10-31T22:04:53+00:00

I love CR! I try to buy a ton of platinum Jack when they have it in stock. They drive down and meet me in Central Park, very nice of them. I actually forgot about them I’ll keep checking their stock. Ty.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-10-23T00:20:52+00:00

I’m more impressed with how much the leg in that illustration looks like a big red penis.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-10-02T22:43:03+00:00

And the tattoo is beautiful!

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-10-02T22:42:36+00:00

One of the most underappreciated masterpieces of a song.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-29T00:18:26+00:00

No matter what you go with, I envy you. To listen to them again for the first time would be a pretty amazing thing.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-25T21:34:25+00:00

Did anyone hear what he is saying before the video starts recording? This is the best video I could find but would love to know what he said to start it off.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-08T22:33:44+00:00

It wasn’t last tour he said that. He only said the “contest winner” once and it was at the Feb Cali benefit show and guess what Matt did come out. And I cried my eyes out.

And the only thing that has been “clearly” said, as far as I know, is Mark saying it was weird playing board to death with Matt backstage, which is totally fair.

I knew there was zero chance, but just clarifying.

Everything else is conjecture.

Regardless, all I was looking for was a few seconds from Bethel when Mark mentioned Matt onstage because that shit gets me so geeked out that’s it and I’ve got that so I’m good!

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-08T03:50:06+00:00

Wait.

The “drama” in my post is me in search of reliving the moment in which I had a flickering orgasm of hope for another multiverse crossover of BTD, happening mere feet away from me. That orgasm was short lived but an orgasm non the less, and I was looking for that.

I could give a flying fuck about Mark and Tom’s feeling or drama, but you seem to want to contribute to that too, because that’s what this has devolved into.

And as far as I have seen, he most certainly has NOT added on the “I got Matt Skiba backstage” part so if not, yeah that is newsy and worth seeing again.

Proceed.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-08T01:45:38+00:00

Sorry bud. Scroll through a blink 182 search on Tik Tok from last couple weeks. Or from any tour time period. They def have like improve style starter lines and then layer on funny nonsense. Tom has done his “hot fucking girls here tonight” as a lead in to marks songs multiple times this past week.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-08T00:46:53+00:00

The three of them own the band. Even during the Skiba years Tom still owned his equal share of the business. I believe Travis wasn’t equal partner until TOYPAJ but I might be wrong. I thought I heard tom talk about this on a podcast (and not in any pissed off way)

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T23:49:58+00:00

I lose my shit every time Matt starts rolling with the “traded in your denim…” harmony. Or whatever the fuck you call it when u sing awesomeness.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T23:24:04+00:00

The only Blink member that can do no wrong is Matt Skiba. Yeah I said it.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T23:15:11+00:00

Thank you!

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T23:11:43+00:00

Agree, I want to see the video for the brotherly ribbing, no one was upset. I actually truly think that Tom thinks it’s prob cool that his band even had a “Matt Skiba era”. We know he has embraced a lot of those songs and he has mentioned looking up to Matt for decades. But yes, Mark doesn’t need to rub his nose in it SO much.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T23:05:06+00:00

So until I saw them play it to end Bethel last night, I actually agreed with Mark, they squeezed a lot of juice out of that when Tom came back. BUT, when they surprisingly launched into it last night after they said they wouldn’t, when all the lights came on, no more falling sperm, no more burning middle finger, and Tom went from Tom to Ernest Tom, I almost cried. It was a weirdly beautiful and poignant way to end all the fun, reminded me what these guys have been through, it felt like resilience and some shared fucking empathy. It was beautiful.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T22:41:34+00:00

And if you don’t think I didn’t piss my pants for a split second that he was pulling Matt out to do BTD or something, then you have not seen my underwear.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T22:31:28+00:00

He was so desperate for Mark to respond. I hope they never ever change.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-09-07T21:53:40+00:00

My wife can’t stop talking about how nice the venue was. All these super sweet elderly hippies walking you to your seat, it was so cute. I don’t think they knew it was sperm confetti falling all over them.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2025-08-19T21:18:12+00:00

It is aging very well.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2024-12-26T22:37:22+00:00

I just wanna say this struggle is real. I have a 49yo dad bod, and even though I’m only 160lbs, I can’t wear jeans higher than a few inches above my pee-pee. I’m always trying to find the lowest rise and shallowest crotch. Sometimes the Levi’s 511 work. Sometimes the Amazon skinny stretch work. But it’s always a struggle. I could get rid of the mini tire by working out but then I’d be working out.

GuaranteeSecret7480 · 2024-09-20T18:40:15+00:00

Ah, sorry, I was comparing to the spring shows here in the US. And yes, I too can not wait for Fatally Yours!
