NECRO THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just re-read this ENTIRE thread and I have two comments.
1. GWAR is an unfortunate angry guy. Now naturally every persons situation is different from the next but i'm willing to bet that he goes on wondering why he isn't recognized for his "brilliance" when in all reality
Elliott was dead on from what I have been able to gather. He will more than likely end up as nothing but a "blip" on the spectrum. His anger is directed towards an inconceivable "evil" of the world that most would
interpret as "Corporate America". Again, Elliott was dead on here as well, too cliche' to even matter.
If he were around today more than likely he would go on pronouncing that the concept of "Net-Neutrality" is his new mission in life. You would find him amongst the confused huddled masses in the
"Occupy" campaign happening around the country. Yes GWAR, you are the 99%, the 99% that preach free-will and anarchy, but when the buck stops with the people that actually make a difference, you have
no opinion other than, "The Government is Evil" with no substance to back it up.
You are NOT unique. Stand in line and accept what has been given to you because god knows you haven't worked for it.
2. Elliott Smith in all his brilliance had many lapses in judgement. He seemed to have the same "complex" that GWAR had, I think that's why they argued so ferociously. Elliott felt like a "tortured genius" never being
recognized for being so "unique".
Words of advice for both of them and people like them:
If you want to feel "unique" and "special" in this world, stop caring so damned much. It's the fundamentalist that you despise so much that you are imitating, just on the opposite spectrum.
If you want to feel like you truly made a difference, work WITH the system. Somtimes, just sometimes, it actually makes peoples lives better.

P.S. I secretly hope this brings both of them back, I miss them
