Now listen. Greg Gutfeld is a world-class tool. There’s no denying that. I knew that as soon as I heard of him, which was about a day ago.
But TBogg, my friend, I do believe you’ve been thoroughly trolled.

No fucking idea what you are talking about! Is this some Gen-Y thing?
what kind of idiot doesn’t know that rollins was in hatebreed
punk card revoked, let me tell you
“But I suppose this is how you define yourself as “edgy,” being five years or so too late in your feeble swing at the go-to punching bag for the predictable progressive hack. Calling her “girlfriend?” Referring to her “one thousand yard stare?” Replacing “man” with Ann? You’ve left no cliche unturned. Something tells me, though, your audience still laps it up. See, you don’t just preach to the choir - you give it a reach around.”
I would very much like for Hank Rollins to give me the reach around.
Come now, that was awesome. Since when is mocking right wingers because they’re painfully uncool unfunny? There’s nothing funnier than a wingnut that thinks he’s punk rock. It’s first class self-delusion. Plus, anyway, everyone knows Henry Rollins was in the 13th Floor Elevators.
If you really want to be entertained, Greg’s parade of pathetic in the comments is something to behold. They can’t decide if punk rock is a horrible wannabe genre due to the anti-authoritarian stance of it, or if they know who all these bands are because even though they’re fucking wingnuts, they’re cool. Really, they’re cool! So cool they can reject it. They have the khaki pants, Limbaugh books, and Kid Rock albums to back it up.
Hey! There’s nothing wrong with khaki pants; Not in the appropriate environment that is.
How can they even call themselves punk without misattributing Rollins to Scraping Fetus off the Wheel
Somehow, these goofs are probably wayyyy too young to even remember the fetus era in punk rock. Heh, they probably think they were that fetus!
There’s nothing wrong with khaki pants
There is a time and place for khaki pants: “business casual day”, as part of a school dresscode, and matched with a blue blazer at a country club brunch.
In any other context, it looks like you’re trying to fit in to any of those above-mentioned contexts, in which case you kind of seem like an awkward douchebag.
I remember doing a purge of my closets and I got rid of everything with pleats and everything khaki. Oh, that was a good day.
There are many things wrong with khaki pants. Mostly it comes down to the lack of cargo pockets.
If I had known years ago all the ways I was dressing wrong, I could never leave the house. I now know I dress too gay, too slobby, too much like an exhibitionist, too drab, too flashy, too ridiculously overprepared, too predictably, too much like a rock climber, too much like a college student, too much like a square, and too much like a nerd to go out in public. No wonder I am a home nudist.
They can’t decide if punk rock is a horrible wannabe genre due to the anti-authoritarian stance of it,
Huh???
I’m a decrepit old fart, and even I know that rock of any sort is anti-authoritarian at its heart.
My favorite thing about Rollins, post-Black Flag, was a random picture of him singing/flexing for all he was worth, that Metal Maniacs ran of him in the mid-90s.
The caption: “Sources disagree on whether Hanky Rollins will explode this year.”
That magazine had wonderfully snarky editors when I was reading in the mid-90s, Katherine Ludwig and Alicia Morgan were their names.
I’m too old to get all the inside stuff about metal bands vis-a-vis rightwing asshats in general. I’m so old I don’t even like pants. Am I the ONLY one here who goes shopping at Wal-Mart in my PJ’s? I see Michael Jackson getting away with it all the time. If you saw me shopping in my PJ’s, you’d likely change your mind on the value of pants, kaki or otherwise.
Enjoy.
Everybody knows he was in the Rollins Band, unless that was Sonny Rollins or Tree Rollins.
