I want my drugs and anger issues MORE than I want a loving stable family said no sane man ever.

Could you imagine living for YEARS with some POS that could go off at any moment?

Well, she got old.

Expect we'll soon see Hetfield with his new girlfriend, 35 years younger than him.

The burdens of being a rock star.

Alcohol withdrawal is bad. Substance abuse / withdrawal may have taken its toll.

Yep. Drugs and anger are more important to him than a loving wife.

Of course, the true story is probably that he didn’t get cleaned up, fell off the wagon one too many times, so she left him.

Stupid. He must have put that family through a lot. I don’t know all the circumstances, just hate to see it.

My wife is a saint — she never goes off. We’ve been married 39 years and dated about 3 before that.

Well, I did see her get mad a few months back about an interminable problem with IRS where they screwed up and they won’t fix it.

The IRS are incompetent clowns who don't answer their phones.

I believe they'll be moving to "vicious lying clown scum" status when they get their JoekBucks and automatic weapons.

back in the early 80s I put a metallica tape in my mothers car stereo, (she was a classical pianist and teacher)

at dinner she she mentioned that she liked the Metal-eeka.

my sisters and I cracked up laughing.

I have never seen Metalica in concert, but I have seen Apocalyptica. while I can play the cello they are better than I am.

for example

Not really surprising.

If you haven’t ever seen the Metallica documentary “Metallica: Some Kind of Monster” give it a look.

At the time it was filmed at least, every one of those jackasses in that band needed a proper ass kicking x 3.....Hetfield included.

I have never seen a bunch of more self absorbed, rich, spoiled babies with a self entitlement mentality in my life.

Every one of ‘em got bitch in ‘em.
