"ASSHOLE" by Denis Leary FUCKING HYSTERICAL.

I'd say this video explains exactly who the average American is
and how we got where we are today.

I dedicate this thread and video to all the lurking freepers
who remain in denial about who they are and there part in
the destruction of this country.

BHN:toast:

Now return to your Walmart shopping.

1. It also made for a good anti-drink-driving message here in the UK

5. GREAT. He is really talented. Great lyricist. Reminds me of a friend who died.

Tracy Thielen. Also a brilliant songwriter and satirist.
Unfortunately he died of an overdose last summer.
What a loss to the world his death was.
I miss him.
Memorial slide show with one of his songs in the bg:

Love you Tracy, where ever you are, I hope there's plenty o' "French Water.."

2. Here's a nice companion piece

From the delicate song stylings of Master Henry Rollins. :)

3. Linky?

I have no idea who this guy is- shows you how connected to
popular culture I have been over the last ten years.
I am now a huge fan.
I just whatched some clips of his live shows.
Brilliant social satirist.
I would most certainly go to see him live,
and for me, that is saying a lot.
I try not to leave my house to avoid all
the assholes he depicts in this video.
He nailed them perfectly.

6. Great! LIAR!

"I'll tell you things you already know
so you can say 'I identify'..."

I used to DATE that guy.
Oh yeah.

LOL

7. I used to DATE that guy too!

PLEASE NOTE: Women also lie. The sentiment is unisexual.

11. No argument from me on that point!

The "quality" is you can call it that is uni sexual.
It's called being a sociopath.

8. I just saw Henry Rollins in the

funniest movie..

A supporting role but he helped make it so humorous!

"The Alibi"..

9. I dig Henry

If I were still in college I would get him to speak at my campus. :)

10. I first heard about him on DU

and read some of his stuff. I saw he was in this movie so I paid attention to which one he was.

Quite the actor!

12. everybody check out Joe Rogan

he has a 2003 standup running on showtime that explains so much.i highly recommend it. have seen Leary's standup several times.

[hfojvt]

13. you think the average American is that bad?

His first example seems wrong to me. Most people do not drive really slow to pi$$ other people off. If they are driving really slow it is because they are scared of all the lead-footed maniacs whizzing by like there is no such thing as either a speed limit or the conservation of momentum. The lead-footed maniacs seem more like a$$holes to me. The slow people are just idiots. That's what Carlin joked. "Ever notice how everybody who drives faster than you is an a$$hole and everybody who drives slower than you is an idiot?"

[Common Sense Party]

14. That's a telling leap on your part. You think this exaggeration

typifies the "average American"?

I don't know where you got the idea that Leary was saying all (or even most) "average" Americans are raging pricks.

And are you implying that Wal-Mart shoppers are, by definition, a-holes?

Things must be pretty bleak in your world.

15. you're right, denis leary is an asshole, he's still ripping off bill hicks after all these years...

...but what kills me, was Bill Hicks was a humanist, who used his biting satire to improve the world around him. Denis Leary is just mean.

[wicket]

20. Leary ripped off everything from Hicks

As the saying goes, the only reason why Leary got so famous is that there is no cure for cancer. :grr:

[shenmue]

23. And Bill Hicks ripped off everything from Lenny Bruce.

I'm tired of the Hicks cult. Come on.

24. *yawn*

16. My Favorite - Nation of Assholes

17. I remember that song, heard it just after the 2004 election

[lligrd]

18. Yep, They Have A Few Other Good Ones Too

and I bugged them for years to put out more but they seem to have given up. I heard it back then too and it captured exactlyhow I felt at the moment and still do (though I at least have a bit of hope now).

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. Thanks! Brought back Fun memories from about 9 years ago! Used to play

this song, booming with my Love. :)

[EstimatedProphet]

21. Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song

Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong...

NAH! I'M AN ASSHOLE!

22. I'll Rec it and share it, THANKS!
