F*CK THE WORLD. HERE’S SOME VINTAGE LIVE METALLICA.
Vince Neilstein checking in to the MetalSucks Mansion here at 1:10pm Eastern Standard Time. Why so late, you ask? No, Axl and I didn’t go on an all-night coke binge (though we did get hella high and listen to the new Slayer song last night), but I’m just getting in because I went to vote this morning… Where I WAITED ON LINE FOR TWO FUCKING HOURS.
As I got on the gargantuan line that stretched all the way down a Manhattan block, murmurs through the grapevine were that only 1 polling machine was working and there was only 1 worker there to handle it. Furthermore, said worker barely spoke English and hence was having trouble finding people’s names on the registry, hence the tremendous slowdown
WHAT IN THE FUCKING FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS FUCKING COUNTRY???
Fuck my little inconsequential vote in the perennial blue state of New York; we all know which way this state is gonna go and I’m extremely lucky to have a job where it doesn’t matter if I’m 2 hours late. What of the blue collar workers in the hotly contested swing states of Ohio, Florida and elsewhere whose votes matter more and who don’t have the same luxury? Inevitably some will give up their right to vote because they have to go back to work and can’t afford to wait on line all day. And inevitably these issues affect the poor, working class public moreso than they do the rich folk. Is this a conspiracy by the Republicans to squash the Democratic vote? It would be hard to prove but I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out to be true.
How can our extremely rich and supposedly democratic nation botch so severely such a simple process as going into a booth and pulling a lever? What the fuck is wrong with our government? Fucking hell. Fuck everyone. This is why we need change. Fuck being non-partisan, too; obviously this site is run by Obama supporters. May he win today and overturn the supreme corruption rampant in our government throughout the past 8 years.
Here’s fucking Metallica playing “For Whom the Bell Tolls” live in fucking 1989. Because I fucking feel like it.
