I'm miserable all of a sudden

[lesfunk]

Dude! Isn't it past your bedtime?

Taking the high road showed restraint on my part

The pisser is, by taking the high road, it invokes a great deal of dignity. Think about that. You did the right thing. Yeah, I know what I'm typing doesn't offer a whole hell of a lot in consolation, yet trust me...a few days from now, you'll realize that this restraint you proffered was not only valid, it was the right way to go.

As an alternative line of thought: "Joke 'em if they can't take a fuck."

More power to you, friend.

I heard the same shit back when Dave was on Free FM. I had that show blasting out of my cubicle, or as I liked to call it - My Little Slice Of Hell. I tried my damnedest to defend Dave, to tell them they should listen. And then I said Fuck It and plugged in my headphones and rode the boat until the ship went down. Paraphrasing here, but Dave himself said, "I hope you love what I'm doin'. If you do, tell a friend. If you don't, tell an enemy. I'll still be here." So fuck 'em all. It's no different than the idiots we seem to attract here - "oh, Dave's voice sounds like shit", "oh, Dave doesn't scream like he used to", "Oh, the new single is shit because..." So fuck 'em. If they don't dig what's going down - fine. I'll still buy the record, the ticket to the show and I'll still laugh every other day when some VH fan comes up next to me on the freeway and screams at me 'cause I have a big-ass VH sticker on the back of my SUV.

So I download the new song right? I'm exited about it so I post about it on my FB wall. I proceed to get a rash of shit from my so-called "Friends". "Ed's a crackhead" "The high ticket prices are to pay for Eddie's rehab", "they're assholes", "He'll never finish the tour" "Chickenfoot Rules" etc.
I went around with them for a while until it began to get ugly.

Rather than telling them to FUCK OFF, I just deleted the post and all their comments.

I was defending Roth in 1986 and in 2012 I'M STILL FUCKING DOING IT! WHAT THE FUCK?

I say fuck em. Van Halen will be filling arenas full of people who think like you do. Look at all the mainstream news hype just playing at The Cafe Wha? generated. I saw coverage on that all over and across the board.

There's more truth in Valerie's book than Sam's. Look. Ed's marriage was falling apart and they tried to make it work so Wolfgang wouldn't have a broken home but it just didn't work. The stress drove Val to eat herself fat and Ed dove into a vat of cheap wine and cocaine. Then the divorce happened, Val and Ed found better partners, she got thin, he got sober and everyone seems happy.

I have to laff. The fucking chedderhead loser motherfuckers are so miserable right now. Their lord and klown Spambot The Unmentionable is being made to look like the tool he is, and they cannot handle it.

[Seshmeister]

Lol!
I saw that dude tell you to read Sammy's book and you were like... 'yeah, I'll get right on that!"... hahahaha

There are a hell of a lot of people in this world who if they read something in a book immediately believe it must be true because it is in a book.

In a way it's quite scary.

You should always question like fuck anything you read especially in an autobiography.

Who wants the lasting account of their life to be they were a prick? Also most pricks don't think they are pricks.

Similarly how many people do you meet who say 'I'm pretty shit at my job but I got lucky so I just do whatever I can to hold on to it.'

Usually if people gave me shit about Diamond Dave or =VH=, then I would tell them: Does it look like I give a flying fuck about what you think? And then I would flip em' off.

Let your friends miss the boat... we're on yacht big enough to pull right and dock next to happiness. Let them carry the miserable flag...

Which pretty much sums up my feelings about the Bible, but I digress...

That's when you tell the sheep: Did you know that Sam use to NOT be in Van Halen and that Mikey wasn't the first bass player in Van Halen? Maybe you should get use to that fact.

[SNIPER]

Thats the story of my life bro.

[BITEYOASS]

Yeah, we struttin' around this muthafucka like we own the place now. Let's take em' to the garage to show them this new =VH= we bought!

BTW, Van Halen x Diamond Dave = WINNING!

All those sheep are sitting around with there bastard children and their ugly wives while yelling out I CAN'T PROCESS IT!

Exactly. Everyone is the hero of their own story.
