I guess after Sweet 75, politics was the only way he could sink further.

Great. A guy who can easily be replaced by a piece of electronics, wants to get a real job. I thought real work was what the grungies were trying to avoid?

The Lt. Governorship of Washington is not a real job.

Did you ever see him on the mtv awards show when Nirvanna played live, after the end of the song this dork throws his bass guitar up in the air and just stares up at it as it travelled upwards, it then came crashing back down on to his face and knocked him out. Doesnt understand the basic laws of gravity ...but yep...he would make a good democrap lt. governor.

Here's a representative sample of his intellect:

DO YOU AGREE WITH THE PEOPLE (I'M ONE OF THEM) WHO SYS THAT YOUR CAREER WAS OVER WHEN KURT DIED?
Charif-Pierre Megarbane, via e mail

I don't know. What's a ****ing career? I bet it's a lot better fun than whatever this Charif-Pierre guy's doing.

DID KURT COBAIN HAVE ANY BAD HABITS LIKE PICKING HIS NOSE?
Diana Flint, via e mail

That's so asinine. I mean, you want to know that? Diana Flint can just go **** off asking questions like that. [Adopts goofy voice] Did he pick his nose? **** off, Diana.

"I bet he'll suck as bad as Nirvana did. (ducking)"

No need to duck. Nirvana stunk, and the smell of those little creeps lingers to this day.

My lord!...and all this time I thought it was just me.
You mean to tell me I am not alone in finding Nivaaaana to be some mediocre "impress your friends, tick off your parents" schitk?

I have always wondered why this stupid little band is still the subject of a 5 hour documentry...heck, the retrospectives are better and have more staying power than the band!

And yes, I'm from the 90's. Nirvana was just another band then, and just another band now. The only reason anyone still plays their cr@p is because Kurt "used to be famous, now he's dead" Cobain offed himself.
