Top 10 Myths About Metal

[Generubin]

i wasn't aware metal needed to be defended

I just hate it when just because I'm wearing some band shirt, some people automatically think I slaughter animals and shit like that. At work about a year and a half ago, a costumer asked what song was playing and I said "don't know the name of it but it's John Mayer...I'm surprised I know that cause I don't listen to this stuff." so he asked me what I listened to so I said metal. He looked at me funny and then asked "really? so what kind of stuff do you like doing?" I said "ummm go to shows, hang with friends, go to the movies, you know, what most people like doing" and he looked kinda shocked...I also said it a little sarcastically lol. Also, this dumb bitch on marta accused me of worshiping satan just because I had on a morbid angel shirt. David Vincent might but I don't, I just like their music! (except the new album)

In the post office once, I was wearing a shirt with a skull and cross bones and jeans and this asshole got into it with me. And, those people are the ones who started it, I was minding my own business until they started talking to me. I don't know what experiences you've had (or not had) but I've had alot more than just these so I DO feel the need to say to some people "fuck you, we're just like everyone else and every subculture has its assholes, you included!" It's pretty hard to ignore someone yelling at you while you're on a marta train...it's not like you can just leave while it's moving. (you can always go to another car but the crazies may follow you)

@Badcarburetor - I agree with you on "dig what you dig" I could care less what other people like. As long as it makes you happy then go for it! But like I said, I have experienced people yelling at me for what I like and it's hard to ignore that. Other than that, I normally don't care what people think!

I would have told the lady on Marta that, "YES I DO worship the devil. Have you been saved from Jesus? Let's repent to Lucifer right now. C'mon, on your knees. Pray with me! O mighty Satan release this poor wretched creature from Jesus' grip. In the name of all things unholy, I implore you to cleanse her soul from the filth of the Holy Ghost." And then start speaking in tongues and roll your eyes into the back of your head, stick out your tongue and wag it around. Maybe start chanting. I'd bet then she'd leave you alone.

Not only would I join this ceremony I would have a very hard time keeping a straight face.

Now that is Trinity Broadcasting Network funny.

That would be one HELL of a marta ride.

I actually like that. Not because I'm all Hot Topic/wanna shock folks immature, but because it filters out the morons in life. It's one of the great things about being heavily inked, too.

This approach would amuse the shit outta me, but is a bit too flamboyant for my style. Upon receiving said crazy Christian comment/question, a big smile and a "damn straight I do" generally does the job and ceases the conversation. That said, anytime I'm heading to Philips in the future I will try to buddy up with Moloc for the trip.

But to each their own. Peronally, I have no problem being "judged" by the small minded; I'm judging them right back.

Now that is Trinity Broadcasting Network funny.

Man, that is gold, right there. I used to watch that shit for hours. That crazy bitch with the face that had been hit by the shotgun set on "whore..." I hadn't thought of that in years. I wonder if DirecTV has that channel, for some reason I thought it was cable only.

Re; Marta lady, I think you shuold have just cut her heart out as a warning to others. I mean, that's what they expect of you anyway, right?

I don't know. I guess I don't even pay attention to the pinheads who would judge me for wearing a metal shirt or listening to metal in general. I used to catch a bunch of shit as a teenager and it annoyed me, but nowadays I don't even notice it.

Yeah, I don't care about being judged, I just don't like idiots hootin' and hollerin' at me. If I really cared about being judged, I wouldn't wear stuff that had pentagrams or inverted crosses or have the tats that I have. It's when they get riled up and start screaming about the glory of god is when I get pissed because you know those motherfuckers are hypocrites!

hahaha yeah I would also have a hard time keeping a straight face! I've said stupid shit before to people to make them go away but that's only if there's another friend with me...I don't want to be alone with some crazy fuck!

Since I've had a car for 2 years straight now, I really haven't had to deal with alot of this anymore. I also graduated from GSU 2 years ago and because of that, I don't take marta downtown everyday like I used to. Yeah, I definitely don't miss marta that's for sure!

I miss those freaks, too. Their guest spots were the best. Seeing Mr. T and Gary Busey arguing about their favorite bits of scripture is a memory I'm taking to the grave.
