Necrothreading much?

As the (Live) Earth flattens, here's a rather adequate Quote Of The Day, that applies to much of the patronizing Stick Figures of Stardom, from one of the last genuine rockers:
"Never trust a Hippie. We said it a long time ago and it's not really changed. And these [Rolling Stone - Ed] are hippies with laptops." — John Lydon (AKA Johnny Rotten) on Rolling Stone magazine.
Laptops and a carbon footprint.

Whatever that means.

Alors que Live Earth, le concert pour la Terre, tombe à plat, voici une Citation Du Jour plutôt adéquate, qui s'applique à toutes les donneuses de leçon en pate à modeler du show-biz, en provenance de l'un des derniers rockers authentiques :
"Ne faites jamais confiance à un Hippie. On le dit depuis pas mal de temps, et rien n'a vraiment changé. Et ceux-là [Rolling Stone - Ed] sont des hippies avec des ordinateurs portables." — John Lydon (Alias Johnny Rotten) parlant du magazine Rolling Stone.
Des portables et une empreinte carbone.

Quoi que ça puisse signifier.

ROFL!!! Hippies with laptops and carbon footprints! When I was a kid I remember some hippies wore "shoeless shoes" - a piece of string in a figure 8 around a toe and tied around the ankle. Now they just have carbon footprints, which begs the question are they truly leaving the earth green or just stinky? heh

Yes... Between their fetish for abortion and their concern with footprints, you'd think these people want to see it through this life without leaving any trace of their passage whatsoever...

If only they could care about reducing their vocal footprint as much as the rest, THAT would be a serious improvement on the pollution front.

Time to take sides

I thought Johnny Rotten was dead? Neal Young said so! Leftard Icon Neal Young wouldn't lie? Would he?
