Six weeks after Ozzy Osbourne's death, Roger Waters has criticized the heavy metal legend for bringing "hundreds of years" of "idiocy and nonsense" into the culture, prompting an angry reply from Osbourne's son Jack.
While speaking to the Independent Ink podcast in the video embedded below, the Pink Floyd legend spoke about how pop culture figures can distract people from important political issues.
While roleplaying as an unspecified person of power, he imagined how the nefarious process might work: "How can we push this to one side? I know how to do it! We'll do it with Taylor Swift or bubble gum or Kim Kardashian's bum."
After switching out of character, Waters then brought Osbourne into the conversation: "... Or Ozzy Osbourne, who just died, bless him, in his, whatever that state that he was in his whole life, we'll never know. Although, he was all over the TV for hundreds of years with his idiocy and nonsense."

He didn't stop there, moving on to attack Osbourne's music: "The music, I have no idea, I couldn't give a fuck. I don't care about Black Sabbath, I never did, I have no interest in.... 'Wahhhh!!!' (spoken while sticking his tongue out and doing an impression that looked more like Gene Simmons than Osbourne) and biting the heads off chickens or whatever they do. I couldn't care less."
When informed that Osbourne (accidentally, it should have been noted) bit the head off a bat, not a chicken, the Pink Floyd legend was even more revolted: "Oh my God, that's even worse, isn't it? I don't know, is it worse to bite the head off a bat or a chicken?"
Jack Osbourne Accuses Roger Waters of 'Vomiting Out Bullshit' Osbourne's son Jack was displeased with Waters' comments and hit back with the Instagram Stories message embedded below: "Hey Roger Waters - fuck you. How pathetic and out of touch you've become. The only way you seem to get attention these days is by vomiting out bullshit in the press. My father always thought you were a cunt - thanks for proving him right."
It's the second time in a week that one of Osbourne's children have come to his defense. Last week on WWE's Raw television show, professional wrestler Becky Lynch attacked Ozzy's hometown of Birmingham, promoting his daughter Kelly to call her a "disrespectful dirtbag."
Result? Nobody seas a thing. Well, what can you do?
The death of the Prince of Darkness was on
Pi Approximation Day:
יום קירוב פאי (465)
First Torah appearance of 465:
בראשית 1:9
ויאמר אלהים יקוו* המים מתחת השמים אל מקום אחד ותראה היבשה ויהי כן*
"And God said, let be gathered together"
Genesis 19 And God said, Let the Waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the Waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
"One place" -- Makom echad. The well-known simple explanation for "yom echad" ("Day One") in verse 5 is that the first day of Creation is counted with a cardinal number, not ordinal like the rest that followed, because...
... because at that point in time, there was no other day to compare it to. Yet it's still "Day One", then and forever.
Sooo, one would think that "makom echad" would draw even more attention, on account of all the deep meanings in the word "Makom", even as a name of God. He's everywhere, He's one... in one place all at once -- one neat trick!
And the Temple is God's place.
No one and no thing can compare. The first appearance of "makom" is here in verse 9, the first verse of the third day, described as "makom echad", "Place One" so to speak.
"and the gathering together of the Waters called he Seas"...
Which is a mikveh [מִקְוֵה], the name of the ritual bath for purification. And with the traditional minimum volume of 40 seah, "40" and "mikveh" go together like peanut butter and jelly.
Besides, 40 *is* the number associated with Waters, the letter mem.
It would be pretty funny, not to mention embarrassing in a trumpy flipped-over story kind of way, that the "third" Temple is actually the one that came "first" -- Makom Echad, because like Day One, nothing compares to it.
What people are saying -- "Ezekiel's Temple is too big for the Temple Mount."
Well, the scholars can debate or rather shrug it off, but the plans can be found in Ezekiel chapter 40 (🤔), with all of those little nooks and crannies [תאים] "on this side" and "on that side" [מפה] -- mi-po, which also spells "MAP", "from 85" (40 + 85), and some other things.
And *Uni*code's got the "40" place tagged as well, because it's where the whole world is AT (at transliterated is "את", like in Gen 1:1, the grammatical little particle DO pointer-outer). Talk about big advertising signage:

Unicode (base 16, hex) 40; decimal 64

As for post 64, I just don't think people realize how it's all connected.
It's like Ozzy's/Black Sabbath's

Roger Waters Labels Ozzy Osbourne’s Career ‘Idiocy and Nonsense’
"I'd keep playing. I don't think the heavy stuff's gonna come down for quite a while"

Gotta love Waters’ for his honest bravado. We don’t need no education, we don’t need no mind control!
Look at what the teachers have done to our kids!!
😎 I don't have a dog in the hunt. Ozzy had one peak and one only, with Randy Rhoades. Otherwise he was just a drug-addled hack. Roger Waters is a Jew-hating POS.
Never mind Waters. I didn’t even know his name back in 1973 when I was wearing out my copy of Dark Side of the Moon.
But imagine my surprise when I learned during 1974 about this (and other verses):
***
Nehemiah 12:37
And at the fountain gate, which was over against them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall, above the house of David, even unto the WATER GATE eastward.
***
I was like “Whoa, dude! What did Nehemiah know, and when did he know it?”
Ozzy sucks. Music for juvenile delinquents.
Fine. Bash the man if you must. There will never be another band to match the awesome sound of Pink Floyd.
That’s right. Pink Floyd had no rival.
Once an ahole always an ahole!
Yes
