If the tune Worms doesn't give you a good indication of the kind of band we're talking about, then you might want to go give a full listen to their latest album.
Here's a lyric from it:
I had a dream I was under the ground
My friends and family were buried all around and a
Worm took a bite of me
And then he washed it down with a bite of you
The same worms that eat me will someday eat you too
Anyway, their song Man Made of Meat struck a chord when I heard it. Especially this lyric:
if it was 1970, I'd have a job a a factory
I am a man that's made of meat
You're on the internet looking at feet
I hate almost everything that I see
And I just wanna disappear
I kinda feel that. Especially when I'm sitting there looking at people (my fiancee?) waste away their life doomscrolling. But then again, I do .... this -- so can I really judge?
The whole song rallies together a lot of the angst, dread and spiritual turmoil that seems to be endemic of young folks in this digital generation.
Here are the lyrics:
Huh, ah!
Okay, alright
Okay, alright
Okay, okay
Alright
Overweight freaks ride around on wheelchairs
Motorized by electric motors made by goblins in a factory overseas
They're there to buy drywall and other products
That they can eat back at home on the sofa
They watch TV, they watch TV about a man named Chandler Bing
Who died in a freak hot tubbing accident
And spent his time drinking hot dog flavored water
On a popular TV show called Tub Girls
I don't wanna pay for anything
Clothes and food and drugs for free
If it was 1970
I'd have a job at a factory
I am a man that's made of meat
You're on the internet looking at feet
I hate almost everything that I see
And I just wanna disappear
Okay, alright
Okay, alright
Okay, alright
M'kay
I stand outside of the McDonald's
I'm, uh, flexing my muscles 'til I explode
I hope they see me in the drive-thru lane
I, I hope they see me in the drive-thru lane
I stand outside of the LL Bean
I'm trying to get some free woman sweaters
You know what I mean?
I hope they see me in the drive-thru lane
I hope, I hope they, I hope they, I hope they
I don't wanna pay for anything
Clothes and food and drugs for free
If it was 1970
I'd have a job at a factory
I am a man that's made of meat
You're on the internet looking at feet
I hate almost everything that I see
And I just wanna disappear
I'm subscribed to your mom's OnlyFans
I spent five bucks a month to get pictures of her flappy giblets
And I spent another ten dollars a month to chat with her on the AI chat program
It feels great
I don't wanna pay for anything
Clothes and food and drugs for free
If it was 1970
I'd have a job at a factory
I am a man that's made of meat
You're on the internet looking at feet
I hate almost everything that I see
And I just wanna disappear
Yeah
China has won the trade war.
The west makes fuck all now except debt and narratives of deception.
The neoliberal financialisation was oh so clever until it undermined the very purpose, meaning and essence of what made western civilisation great.
Making things that people want-
China does that now and so stew in your existential sweat as western civilisation rots from the inside out.
Your social credit score must be so high! Well done!
Lol my social credit score on SNs is fucking low that is for sure.
Yes there is such a thing here on SN - it is calculated by how popular, or unpopular your comments/posts are.
I would love to know mine but not sure I can - maybe @koob or @ek can disclose it!
Its gotta be close to zero!
I have heard to weighting due to your SN social credit score will be reduced or removed soon, (this month perhaps?) but again not sure of the detail.
At present my understanding is that popular (arsemilking circle jerkers) commentors zaps carry more weight on the prioritisation/heirarchy viewing position of posts than those who like me say what needs to be said but what circle jerking Libertarians do not want to hear but cannot refute.
Think about it - People who assert that a CCP bot would be on SNs raising awareness of how the west is losing the trade war are logically more likely to be CCP bots than I am!
These lyrics are awesome…dripping with sarcasm and irony
