- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice.
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal to a troll. The individual in the video is very obviously Patrick S. Tomlinson.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never submitted this video footage during any of his many media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.
Where we at with the Nirvana?
- Thread starter HotDogJoe
- Start date
One of the better unplugged performances.
Solid band but would rather listen to early Pixies instead, or Husker Du - Makes No Sense At All
I like Nirvana, they were a good band. The fanbase and the mystique surrounding them is super gay though.
Hey man, is that skateboard faggot rock?

Interesting article about the Butch Vig mix of Nevermind. This was how Cobain wanted the album released but Geffen wanted a more overproduced version.

Cobain's biggest mistake was treating that grunting, herpes-ridden cum-bucket wife of his like an equal. She immediately set about destroying him and bleeding him dry until suicide was his best option.
I liked then a lot in my youth. Grew up in that era. But then I grew out of that angsty, teenage rebellion phase so I don’t listen to them too much nowadays. Still enjoy some of their songs.
I also don’t much care if the band members can be faggy or whatever. Most musicians are, and actors, and athletes, and anybody in the public eye. I love the movie Chinatown and Roman Polanski is a pedo. I still like Casino even though de Niro is a total retard of a human. Etc.

Same. Alice in Chains has songs that hold up, though. "Rooster" is the better song about the Vietnam war than anything from the '60s.
You know how Pacino won the Oscar for Scent of a Woman after all the great shit he did in the 70s, and Scorsese won for The Departed after nearly every other movie he directed that was better? I think the same applies to Grohl for the success he's had with Foo Fighters. Foo Fighters stinks (mediocre at best, anyway) but Grohl does deserve the accolades for Nirvana's success, so if he gets it through being the frontman of a lame band, so be it.
Grohl wasn't originally in Nirvana. Before he was, the band sucked and their debut is abysmal. Grohl reined in Cobain and made sense of his ideas. My favourite song of theirs is Scentless Apprentice. In an interview, Kurt said the riff was Dave's idea and critiqued it first by asking, "isn't this a bit too simplistic/boneheaded?" and Dave had to assure him it would work. Alice In Chains notwithstanding, In Utero defines that decade and genre the best, better than Nevermind.
Grohl also drummed on QOTSA's best album, and it just fucking claps, child.

Jerry Cantrell is the greatest talent out of that period, and he gets no credit for it.
I liked them, but I put them last out of the big grunge bands of the era.
Definitely hit their stride after Paul McCartney stepped in.
they might be "babby's first grunge band" but i still enjoy them, i loved lithium when i was a kid
They’ve been overplayed to death and for 10 years every band tried to be them, and most did a really poor job. Because of that, people see Nirvana come on the radio and turn it off most of the time. The media took their style and ran it into the ground, which sucks because they were great.
Their Unplugged album is actually my favorite album of all time. Cover to cover gems.
Sure AIC was better, but I think its absurd to say that Nirvana sucks or was never good

Pretty funny when Axl Rose told Cobain to shut his bitch up. Also pretty funny when Nirvana spit all over GnR's keyboards.
Grohl worked hard to learn the drums, and other instruments. Cobain came out of that post-punk world where you don't need to actually know how to play an instrument to be in a band (ie It's cool to be lazy. Putting in effort is being sincere, which is something to sneer at.)
