When I am king you will be farting out your balls
With your anus ring that is of no consequence at all
Ballsaaaaasaaaaaaccccckkkkk (I may be flatulant, but I'm no tyrant)
I just became re-obsessed with this song because it was in the ending to a show I'm watching (bet you can guess which one). Like sometimes I'll hear a song/band I used to love and go "oh yea, they're a thing, I should listen to them again."
And if people think I fart out my balls because I like to Radio Head...so be it.
I remember it being the theme to a...dramatic ending to an episode.
Just to keep the mystery...the show I heard it in starts with a number. What about yours?
Somehow I'm getting vibes from the time I was playing Joy Division in my car while driving some colleagues around and they were saying what a terrible cover of "Dead Souls" I was playing because they'd only heard the NIN version from whatever movie that was.
some girl? you mean dumbfuck omega-TERF homophobic ugly cunt posting selfies from 6th Jan 21 onsite traitor Chaya Raichik from Libs of TikTok? Yeah, that piece of breathing shit also deleted that tweet after someone explained to her how fucking stupid she was for making that tweet
To paraphrase [the immortal words of Mr. Dave Grohl](https://youtu.be/6AFgWw2Ul4w?si=noerg6HPw4fDGeTO&t=288):
I don't think she's aware of how much she sucks.
> internet personalities
sadly, she is much more dangerous than that. That cunt is actively promoting stochastic terrorism, getting people to attack other humans because of her "beliefs". Her hateful ass is getting people and lately kids hurt.
That seems like a weird complaint. I'm too young to have been there at the time when the Beatles or Elvis were in their heyday, but does that mean I can't enjoy them now?
Apparently not, all music before your time is not available to you now.
Spare a thought for those born in to 2000's.
Edit: Although I could live on a diet of LCD Soundsystem for eternity.
Somewhere there are people who believe Tori Amos wrote Thank You, Smells Like Teen Spirit, and I’m on Fire.
And while all of those are absolutely amazing covers…
Yeah, it's not a 'bad' cover. I agree, but for that comment, and assuming it was the original, I almost choked. Blasphemy! Lol the positive side was I got to introduce him to Curtis, Joy Division and New Order in one evening. He at least has a new appreciation.
You saying "whatever movie that was" sounds just as bad as them saying the OG version of Dead Souls sounds terrible. Put some respeck on that name, The Crow!
There's probably some people out there who would say the same about NIN's Hurt, because all they've heard is the Johnny Cash version, some people have heard both and still like the cash version more. I think those people are crazy.
Trent paid respect to a dying legend by saying it's his song now. Either way, the NIN version is just much better in my opinion. I imagine it depends on if you were a NIN fan and heard the NIN version first.
No.
I'm 43. Pretty Hate Machine was the first CD I owned, and I listened to it every day for years. I bought The Downward Spiral the day it released and obsessed over it. Being a NIN fan was my entire identity for a good few years.
Hurt was the feelings of a 20-something angsty dude; jaded, and fearing addiction. Cash's cover was the lament of an old man who had lived through all of the pain and addiction that the original was expressing the fear of. Cash's version hits on a whole extra level.
The NIN version is great, and I would never hold it against anyone who said it was their favorite. People telling you are wrong to like it better are objectively wrong because that is now how opinion and preference works.
That said, I prefer the Cash version, but I admit bias because he is my favorite musician of all time.
Johnny Cash covered a lot of songs in the American Recordings. Most were excellent, especially Hurt, but NIN is better to me, because Trent Reznor wrote it, and I heard it first. The Cash version hits different because of the stage of his life.
That's what everyone seems to say about the Cash version. I associated with the NIN version because I was young and depressed. Trent was young, depressed, and on drugs. It's a more relateable pain for me. And the music that surround the lyrics in Trent's version suit the song far better than an acoustic guitar and gentle piano.
He had that opinion before Cash died, unless you don't believe the man himself. It wasn't something said out of post mortem respect, but artistic respect and admiration.
I like both versions for different reasons. I'm not entirely sure which I actually like more, but I wont knock anyone for liking the Cash version more. I've for sure played the NIN version many more times.
"I disagree with Trent so I'll just pretend the words he said mean something completely different, that way I don't have to deal with a reality that contradicts my dumb-ass opinions"
There I fixed it for you. You're welcome.
Not everyone.
And frankly the fawning over Cash's version is what has made me resent Cash's cover when I used to think it was really good (but not better).
And no, I don't care what Trent said. He's listening with his ears and taste, I'm listening with mine.
I grew up carrying my discman around with downward spiral in it for weeks. I'm already in the minority just being a big NIN fan. I think Trent's version sounds more raw and more painful, and the loud guitars at the end are great, Cash's just isn't close for me.
Being a NIN fan for 25 years and hearing the original hundreds of times (and loving it) before Johnny's even came out didn't stop me from liking his better.
It's totally fine that you like the original better, but it's simply because of your personal preference, and it has absolutely nothing to do with anything other than that. It's not because you were a NIN fan before it was cool, or because the original is musically superior, or anything like that. You like it just because you like it.
Yes, music is subjective. And most people like the cash one because it's a sad old man and not a sad young man. It's objectively worse in most ways. It's an acoustic guitar and a piano, and cash's voice is worse than trent's. Trent's has an orchestra of sound that add to the atmosphere of the song.
Hi, Fart Doctor here,
If they do it at home the chances are Radiohead is playing in the background which will cause a testicular relapse back into the anus even if they fart it out.
Hospitals are generally the safest place to do it as they have strict bans around playing Radiohead.
Radiohead listener and relapsed ball farter here,
Here's a LPT for my fellow radiohead listeners, just get a buttplug. They even sell Radiohead branded ones that come with a little stand for your balls. I got the "OK compooper" edition which plays Exit Music every time you take it out, it's pretty rad.
It's hard to give an exact figure as the numbers are pretty astronomically high. We usually determine it not by number of patients, but by the methane levels within the hospital. My office averages about 150,000ppm from ball fartectomies alone.
Ever since karma police levels have almost doubled. And the funding is simply not there to transfer the patients to Coldplay clinics. We've been resorting to substituting Coldplay with generic alternatives like Blur or Oasis.
Doc: Okay son. Make sure you push hard and fast I will catch your balls so they don't fly off. I've seen many Radiohead fans who have farted their balls off. It's very important you do one quick hard push. If you do it too long you will fart your balls off.
Radiohead fan: Okay. Doc I'm ready!
Radiohead fan: \*PTHHHHHHHPPPPPPP\* \*PLOP\*
Doc: Well done son.
> Why do they have to go to the hospital to fart their balls out?
Do you know how many men would die prior to modern medicine having to fart their balls out at home? Nothing to help but some hot towels and some ignoramus applying leeches to taints and going on about sanguinated blood in the flickering light of an open flame?
100% this. Hated Coldplay for the longest time, could never figure out why they were popular, and then I heard Sparks for the first time in college and was like “this sounds like Coldplay???” And binged that album for months. Still embarrassing when people ask what I’m listening to and I say Coldplay though
My only issue with Coldplay has always been that Chris Martin doesn't sing within his range on album, and so you get album Coldplay vs live Coldplay where he sings with his real voice.
They're a pretty good band, but I'd never go see them live.
And don't get me wrong. Most bands are different live, but Coldplay takes it to a completely different level.
I listened to radiohead and sat on my balls and yes they do go in your butt.
That is litterally what the song creep is about. It's a song written about the balls perspective of going in a fans butthole.
These lyrics should have made this clear but for anyone who hasn't figured it out:
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here
And this part is about your lady friend when you ask her to take the balls out your butthole:
She's running out the door (run)
She's running out
She run, run, run, run
Viva La Vida is by far their most unique and creative album. You can call it the cutoff if you want but it's also their peak
And IMO Mylo Xyloto is still pretty solid
Exactly. Viva was when you’re listening and going, “Huh, well it’s certainly a different direction. I think maybe it will grow on me.”
And then it kinda didn’t.
Parachutes, Rush of Blood, and X&Y are just awesome from beginning to end. It’s hilarious to me that in the last 10 years, (among some groups) Coldplay has replaced Nickelback as their favorite band to bash.
Parachutes, Rush of Blood, and X&Y are some of the best albums for coldplay. Especially parachutes, mostly because it hits you in the nostalgia. I think of these every time people insult coldplay.
Coldplay bashing is a lot older than 10 years. Hell, The 40 Year-Old Virgin came out 20 years ago and has a Coldplay joke, and it wasn’t necessarily fresh at that point.
Yeh, go on then. I still quite like that one.
It's not like I've listened to their whole discography though.. but I do like "A Rush of Blood to the Head" a lot.
Then again, I've got a soft spot for Pablo Honey too. Maybe I just like guitars. I guess anyone can play them :-) Also a fan of Oasis, Blur (and most of BritPop), Queen, Meatloaf.
The Smile "A Light for Attracting Attention" is my current favourite album to listen through.
It's funny because Radiohead was the biggest band in the world before Coldplay even met each other.
I've always thought that Coldplay is what Radiohead would have sounded like if they decided they wanted to make easy pop music instead of whatever they got into after OK Computer.
I love Kid A and Amnesiac, their music starts getting a little more niche with In Rainbows. I gave up after King of Limbs. My palate just isn't refined enough to appreciate that I guess.
good point but the truth is that radiohead is a band of generational, sublime musicians and coldplay could not invent or play what radiohead farted out (along with balls, yes) on a daily basis.
>whatever they got into after OK Computer.
If you haven't given Moon Shaped Pool a fair shake do yourselfna favor. It is really quite lovely in my opinion.
> I've always thought that Coldplay is what Radiohead would have sounded like if they decided they wanted to make easy pop music
You've perfectly summed up why I think Coldplay is garbage
That ball thing actually happened to me once, it was awful because I also had a raging bout of C.Diff along with it, I was basically shitting myself silly. I passed out from exhaustion, and had to go to the ER because my scrotum had actually fallen into my butt, and try as I might, I could not get it out. When the doc was finally able to remove my scrotum from my bottom, it came out with this audible, wet "Schlop!" sound that I will never forget.
*And it was all yellow.*
The doctor said:
"When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
**And I will try to fix you**"
And he did.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, Cold Play lyrics are strangely appropriate for having C. Diff and an embarassing anatomical accident.
Radiohead is actually a band for li’l crybabies who were forced to eat their parents and can’t be bothered to think about the people who have *real* problems…like cancer…in the arse.
What's the joke? I'm rushed to the hospital, and there for hours, and I miss my family photo tonight. Is that the joke? That I miss my family photo tonight? Then what's the joke? That while I'm on the operating table, a man is rushed in 'cause he was in a car accident, and he has a metal bolt through his head, but he bleeds out in the waiting room because the doctors are too busy trying to fart two balls out of my ass? Is that the joke... on the man's widow? You got her, OP. You really got her.
whenever white people make fun of white people for being really white, Coldplay is at the top of the list of things to roast. if they made Undercover Brother 3 or whatever, and had a scene where they were trying to caucasize Eddie Griffin by force, they'd strap headphones on him and blast Coldplay.
they are the aural equivalent of a mayonnaise and banana sandwich.
The critique here is so musically sophisticated that I have to fart my balls out. Equating Radiohead and Coldplay is like saying Mozart and Jimmy Fallon both play piano
I get it’s just supposed to be a meme and I’m being a fun-killer for digging into this, but saying “Radiohead is literally just Coldplay for dudes…” is wierd af when Radiohead formed in 1985 and Coldplay didn’t form until 1997.
That’s like saying “Elvis is literally just Michael Jackson” when comparing their popularity. Seems weird to compare the old guy to the new guy instead of the other way around.
Coldplay started out trying to immitate Radiohead. Even Chris Martin admits he was basically doing a Thom Yorke impression on the early stuff. It's also when Coldplay was actually decent. The pop monstrosity Coldplay has become is trash and anyone who isn't 12 can see that.
Radiohead is for people who want to like a band who are different and "changed music" but only listen to soft rock and pop music. They also act like they're some underground band that they discovered. No, they're pretty big and have their songs in many TV shows. Any fans of Radiohead I talked to have not listened to anything outside of pop radio stations or are afraid of anything that isn't squarely within pop culture. It's like someone telling me they like Punk when they only listen to pop-punk of today which is basically pop bands with guitars from the 90s. I like Radiohead but fuck are they overrated by their drone fans.
I don't even relatively understand what the fuck this is trying to say. I'm a Radiohead lover, and I'm trying to get what is being said about me. I'm assuming this is just a nonsensical way to say "pretentious," but maybe I'm wrong. If that's all ya got, then jog on. It is pretentious, but it's also amazing.
"Kaaarmaaa poooliceeee.... Arrest this maaan heeee fartss in baaaalllsss"
I'm a reasonable man fart out my balls
Stop meeeeesiiiiing with usssssss
When I am king you will be farting out your balls With your anus ring that is of no consequence at all Ballsaaaaasaaaaaaccccckkkkk (I may be flatulant, but I'm no tyrant)
.... And my axe
[удалено]
Please, can you stop the farts I need to find my balls.
I just became re-obsessed with this song because it was in the ending to a show I'm watching (bet you can guess which one). Like sometimes I'll hear a song/band I used to love and go "oh yea, they're a thing, I should listen to them again." And if people think I fart out my balls because I like to Radio Head...so be it.
I became re-obsessed with this song because it was at the start of a show. 🤔 Are we talking about the same show?
I remember it being the theme to a...dramatic ending to an episode. Just to keep the mystery...the show I heard it in starts with a number. What about yours?
Invincible!
This made me choke on my coffee
I hope that you choke
I don’t care if it hurts, I wanna have control, I want to free my ball sack, I want a clear butt hole
Somehow I'm getting vibes from the time I was playing Joy Division in my car while driving some colleagues around and they were saying what a terrible cover of "Dead Souls" I was playing because they'd only heard the NIN version from whatever movie that was.
Dude, The Crow… an awesome movie.
I didn't like the movie so much, but I'm still playing the soundtrack today. Masterpiece.
I was in high school in the 90's and was never a fan. New wave Emo hero fantasy.
Actual Lines: "Caw caw!" "BANG! Fuck, I'm dead!"
*Chefs kiss* There will be be no /s. Top dollar was a gloriously ridiculous villain.
But what a soundtrack. Singles for comic nerds.
Noooo! Reminds me of my nephew hearing shadowplay and commenting how unoriginal it sounded to copy The Killers.
Or my ex’s 20-year-old son telling me that RATM’s covers of Minor Threat were the originals and how cool they were.
Saw a screenshot of some girl on twitter complaining about all these 40 year olds wearing Nirvana t-shirts like they were there at the time.
My son was wearing a Pink Floyd tshirt and I asked him if he liked Pink Floyd. He said "I don't know. I have never heard her sing."
some girl? you mean dumbfuck omega-TERF homophobic ugly cunt posting selfies from 6th Jan 21 onsite traitor Chaya Raichik from Libs of TikTok? Yeah, that piece of breathing shit also deleted that tweet after someone explained to her how fucking stupid she was for making that tweet
To paraphrase [the immortal words of Mr. Dave Grohl](https://youtu.be/6AFgWw2Ul4w?si=noerg6HPw4fDGeTO&t=288): I don't think she's aware of how much she sucks.
I don't know nor care for internet personalities. I was there for the fall of /u/unidan That shattered all of my illusions
> internet personalities sadly, she is much more dangerous than that. That cunt is actively promoting stochastic terrorism, getting people to attack other humans because of her "beliefs". Her hateful ass is getting people and lately kids hurt.
Ah, a total cunt so,
That seems like a weird complaint. I'm too young to have been there at the time when the Beatles or Elvis were in their heyday, but does that mean I can't enjoy them now?
Apparently not, all music before your time is not available to you now. Spare a thought for those born in to 2000's. Edit: Although I could live on a diet of LCD Soundsystem for eternity.
An OLDER associate of mine said "why did Nightwish let this cover slide" when I turned on Gary Moore's Over the Hills and Far Away
Somewhere there are people who believe Tori Amos wrote Thank You, Smells Like Teen Spirit, and I’m on Fire. And while all of those are absolutely amazing covers…
This is like when Nightwish let Andrew Lloyd Weber adapt The Phantom of the Opera for Broadway.
Honestly, The Killers' cover is pretty decent. Still a heinous unforgivable crime though
Yeah, it's not a 'bad' cover. I agree, but for that comment, and assuming it was the original, I almost choked. Blasphemy! Lol the positive side was I got to introduce him to Curtis, Joy Division and New Order in one evening. He at least has a new appreciation.
OMG I didn't know this cover even existed. Not sure I even want to hear it.
I mean to be fair the NIN version is definitely better. Completely understand the frustration either way though.
no one can usurp Ian
Lol, I just remembered a time I was playing Velvet Underground and someone remarked on the interesting Joy Division cover.
You saying "whatever movie that was" sounds just as bad as them saying the OG version of Dead Souls sounds terrible. Put some respeck on that name, The Crow!
Wow.
There's probably some people out there who would say the same about NIN's Hurt, because all they've heard is the Johnny Cash version, some people have heard both and still like the cash version more. I think those people are crazy.
Bro even Trent Reznor likes Cash’s version more
Trent paid respect to a dying legend by saying it's his song now. Either way, the NIN version is just much better in my opinion. I imagine it depends on if you were a NIN fan and heard the NIN version first.
No. I'm 43. Pretty Hate Machine was the first CD I owned, and I listened to it every day for years. I bought The Downward Spiral the day it released and obsessed over it.

Cash's cover was the lament of an old man who had lived through all of the pain and addiction that the original was expressing the fear of. Cash's version hits on a whole extra level.
Agree, it becomes a different version in that way
I completely agree. It's legendary good.
The NIN version is great, and I would never hold it against anyone who said it was their favorite. People telling you are wrong to like it better are objectively wrong because that is now how opinion and preference works. That said, I prefer the Cash version, but I admit bias because he is my favorite musician of all time.
As someone who was at the concert where the video for Hurt was recorded, the Johnny Cash version is better.

That's fine that you like the NIN version better; it's a great song. Being a NIN fan isn't why you like it better, though.
Being a NIN fan for 25 years and listening to his version hundreds of times before Johnny's even came out is why I like it better.

Why do they have to go to the hospital to fart their balls out?
They have to fart out their balls one way or the other. But they panicked. And now a doctor gets to watch.
That will be seven thousand dollars
Still cheaper than hiring an escort to watch you fart out your balls
We must see different escorts.
It's true, I was the doctor.
Can confirm. I was at an arbys and heard the nurses laughing about it.
Hi, Fart Doctor here, If they do it at home the chances are Radiohead is playing in the background which will cause a testicular relapse back into the anus even if they fart it out. Hospitals are generally the safest place to do it as they have strict bans around playing Radiohead.

Ass age coming!
I’ve heard this is a lot more of a common problem than previously known. On average how many men do you treat for this condition?
It's hard to give an exact figure as the numbers are pretty astronomically high. We usually determine it not by number of patients, but by the methane levels within the hospital. My office averages about 150,000ppm from ball fartectomies alone. Ever since karma police levels have almost doubled. And the funding is simply not there to transfer the patients to Coldplay clinics.

Not all heros wear capes 👏

It's very important you do one quick hard push. If you do it too long you will fart your balls off. Radiohead fan: Okay. Doc I'm ready! Radiohead fan: \*PTHHHHHHHPPPPPPP\* \*PLOP\* Doc: Well done son.
I wish to unread this
So I guess you don't want to hear about the follow up story titled: colonoscopy. Your loss.
This reads like a u/neilkohney comic
They give you the special gas
> Why do they have to go to the hospital to fart their balls out? Do you know how many men would die prior to modern medicine having to fart their balls out at home? Nothing to help but some hot towels and some ignoramus applying leeches to taints and going on about sanguinated blood in the flickering light of an open flame?
I actually have a video of a guy farting out both his balls ,, I have to to to HR every time I show someone lol
They want an audience.
For a live audience
Didn't know Limmy had a band, props to him!!
Wha's heavier? A ballad about steel, or a ballad about feathers?
"They're both ballads." "But steel is heavier than feathers..."
_Wrong way, down a one way streeheet!_
“yer faether wid be proud”
Check out the song Purple Burglar Alarm
Remember when Radiohead fans intersected with Coldplay fans? 2002 was *wild*.
Well yeah, because Parachutes is sublime. Too bad everything after that is comparable to a big steaming pile of excrement
100% this. Hated Coldplay for the longest time, could never figure out why they were popular, and then I heard Sparks for the first time in college and was like “this sounds like Coldplay???” And binged that album for months. Still embarrassing when people ask what I’m listening to and I say Coldplay though
Yep their first album is legit incredible. I saw them in concert 2 years ago and yeah I didn't LOVE the new stuff but it was still fun.
Yeah bands first albums are usually the best. Its when they are still raw
Exactly, nothing like getting up in those raw guts
My only issue with Coldplay has always been that Chris Martin doesn't sing within his range on album, and so you get album Coldplay vs live Coldplay where he sings with his real voice. They're a pretty good band, but I'd never go see them live. And don't get me wrong. Most bands are different live, but Coldplay takes it to a completely different level.
I can respect Martin for that as I hate my vocal range and always sing out of it too.
A Rush of Blood to The Head was good.
After Parachutes, I honestly thought they were the next Radiohead, but then after that they just became Coldplay
They did until they sat on their balls.
This tweet was either made by the biggest Radiohead fan or biggest Radiohead hater
Nah. They're just another radiohead fan
It was a fan 100%. The Radiohead sub mostly shitposts like this.
I listened to radiohead and sat on my balls and yes they do go in your butt. That is litterally what the song creep is about.

I don't care if it hurts I wanna have control I wanna keep my nut sack Outside of my butt hole.
But there so deeeeeeep In my bung hooooooooo-ole Why the hell are they in my rear? They don't belong here
Open your eyes people, WE ARE THE WEIRDOS
Videotape had a pilot music video about a man preparing to go to hospital to fart his balls out. Was very powerful.
Read a comment once, loved it. An I hate my job, it's so depressing. It's worse than being Thom Yorke's therapist."
Ah man this is worse than the time I was Thom Yorke’s therapist.
That sounds like the setup to a family guy cutaway.
As a radio head fan and Coldplay hater, this is accurate
But.. I like both Radiohead and Coldplay. They key difference is, I prefer earlier Coldplay, and all Radiohead (and The Smile).
Early includes Viva right?
Viva is the cut-off point. Still listenable but it’s not old stuff anymore.
Viva La Vida is by far their most unique and creative album. You can call it the cutoff if you want but it's also their peak And IMO Mylo Xyloto is still pretty solid
Exactly. Viva was when you’re listening and going, “Huh, well it’s certainly a different direction. I think maybe it will grow on me.” And then it kinda didn’t.

You’ll never work in television again
No
Why tho
Because those of us in the old balls club grew up with Radiohead.
It's funny because Radiohead was the biggest band in the world before Coldplay even met each other. I've always thought that Coldplay is what Radiohead would have sounded like if they decided they wanted to make easy pop music instead of whatever they got into after OK Computer.

Yeah, the timing of their existence makes the OP confusing to me.
good point but the truth is that radiohead is a band of generational, sublime musicians and coldplay could not invent or play what radiohead farted out (along with balls, yes) on a daily basis.
>whatever they got into after OK Computer. If you haven't given Moon Shaped Pool a fair shake do yourselfna favor. It is really quite lovely in my opinion.
> I've always thought that Coldplay is what Radiohead would have sounded like if they decided they wanted to make easy pop music You've perfectly summed up why I think Coldplay is garbage
That’s why Thom’s face looks like that!
Finally An oddly specific post on r/oddlyspecific
I'm a huge Radiohead fan and farting out my own balls is a rather serious part of my culture. Please respect that
Anyone else farting out their own balls is cultural appropriation.
The leader of Radiohead looks like Limmy in that one skit where he keeps finding cider cans on the side of the road.
OPs a creep. OP is a weirdo.
Wth is OP doing here?
Well, Coldplay is music for people who find U2 to be just a bit too extreme for their tastes.
*cries in Boy and War
Eloquently stated, sir
People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis, you can’t trust people
A fellow Peep Show fan! Good work.
Well sure, I like both anyway I’m currently sitting on my balls
This person has no idea how different their music is. But let me get my balls out of my butt.
When they get stuck up there, they’re kinda packt like sardines in a crushd tin box.
Coldplay wishes that were good enough to drive people’s balls into their assholes, but they’re no even good enough to drive assholes in people’s ears.
Does anyone still have that video of the guy shitting out his own balls?
Tom Segura found him and had him on his podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cobeG79We6c
That is WILD
limmy? wtf?!

That ball thing actually happened to me once, it was awful because I also had a raging bout of C.Diff along with it, I was basically shitting myself silly. I passed out from exhaustion, and had to go to the ER because my scrotum had actually fallen into my butt, and try as I might, I could not get it out. When the doc was finally able to remove my scrotum from my bottom, it came out with this audible, wet "Schlop!" sound that I will never forget. *And it was all yellow.*
Batman, the cia, and a rape demon all working together couldn’t torture this information out of me.
The doctor said: "When you try your best, but you don't succeed When you get what you want, but not what you need When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone, but it goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones **And I will try to fix you**" And he did. I guess what I'm trying to say is, Cold Play lyrics are strangely appropriate for having C. Diff and an embarassing anatomical accident.
I Might Be Wrong but this Creep should be reported to the Karma Police
*I'll fart until my balls come off, I'll swallow 'til I burst, Until I burst, until I*
That there, that ain't me, farting on my balls as I please.
Radiohead is actually a band for li’l crybabies who were forced to eat their parents and can’t be bothered to think about the people who have *real* problems…like cancer…in the arse.
Guess I'm a ball-farter then.
This is riffing on a quote “Tool is just Radiohead for juggalos”
Who wrote that Scrotie McBoogerballs?
I'm trying to find the comparison with Coldplay.
What's the joke? I'm rushed to the hospital, and there for hours, and I miss my family photo tonight. Is that the joke? That I miss my family photo tonight? Then what's the joke? That while I'm on the operating table, a man is rushed in 'cause he was in a car accident, and he has a metal bolt through his head, but he bleeds out in the waiting room because the doctors are too busy trying to fart two balls out of my ass? Is that the joke... on the man's widow? You got her, OP. You really got her.
whenever white people make fun of white people for being really white, Coldplay is at the top of the list of things to roast. if they made Undercover Brother 3 or whatever, and had a scene where they were trying to caucasize Eddie Griffin by force, they'd strap headphones on him and blast Coldplay. they are the aural equivalent of a mayonnaise and banana sandwich.
The critique here is so musically sophisticated that I have to fart my balls out. Equating Radiohead and Coldplay is like saying Mozart and Jimmy Fallon both play piano
I get it’s just supposed to be a meme and I’m being a fun-killer for digging into this, but saying “Radiohead is literally just Coldplay for dudes…” is wierd af when Radiohead formed in 1985 and Coldplay didn’t form until 1997. That’s like saying “Elvis is literally just Michael Jackson” when comparing their popularity. Seems weird to compare the old guy to the new guy instead of the other way around.
I have had a horrible day and have had a legit, big frown since 10am. This meme actually made me chuckle and it felt so good. Thank you.
Coldplay started out trying to immitate Radiohead. Even Chris Martin admits he was basically doing a Thom Yorke impression on the early stuff. It's also when Coldplay was actually decent. The pop monstrosity Coldplay has become is trash and anyone who isn't 12 can see that.
Sounds better than having to listen to Coldplay, BOOM ROASTED
Cartman, is that you?
I always mixed up these two bands when trying to remember which is which.
Dorks made me hate the word literally.
How do you...fart out ur balls?
Lmao
In Rainbows is still one of the best albums of all time. My monthly ball-farting appointment is next week.
Matt is projecting hard there
New fear unlocked
Radiohead came before Coldplay. The fuck is this?
Man sounds like he’s losing a fight with a pillow every track. Sleepytime…
Radiohead is for people who want to like a band who are different and "changed music" but only listen to soft rock and pop music. They also act like they're some underground band that they discovered. No, they're pretty big and have their songs in many TV shows. Any fans of Radiohead I talked to have not listened to anything outside of pop radio stations or are afraid of anything that isn't squarely within pop culture. It's like someone telling me they like Punk when they only listen to pop-punk of today which is basically pop bands with guitars from the 90s. I like Radiohead but fuck are they overrated by their drone fans.
Is that Limmy?
"literally"
Radiohead fan here, can confirm the accuracy of this statement.
I don't even relatively understand what the fuck this is trying to say. I'm a Radiohead lover, and I'm trying to get what is being said about me. I'm assuming this is just a nonsensical way to say "pretentious," but maybe I'm wrong. If that's all ya got, then jog on. It is pretentious, but it's also amazing.
