I like to enjoy life. Well, except for Old Goat Breath. Then it's game on!
I rarely do, but the times I do it, I delete pretty quickly. I really wish we could go back to just flip phones like Old Nasal One Note AKA Tambourine B/witch AKA Old Goat Breath.

Oh I just got a text from Nasal One Note and she wanted to say she has more then a one note range. She posted this rebuttal version of Gypsy to prove it.

I've shared that video quite a few times. $tevie at her best! I love her hairstyle, too. Covers up all her plastic surgery....I mean, her staying out of the sun. $he probably rolls in mud, or whatever goats do... No, it's Karen that rolls in the mud... my bad.

...which, even if true, is nothing compared to the violence of a man towards a woman:

Quote:
"Throughout the book, Buckingham is depicted verbally and physically abusing Harris.

In one instance, she wrote, he "raised his arm and hit me hard enough to knock me off the staircase into the wall".

In another, he grabbed a fistful of her hair, got in a car and drove down a driveway, dragging her across the pavement.

Eventually, Harris claimed, a doctor told her she had to leave Buckingham for her own safety."
False equivalency much?

I'm not sure the point is to say the actions themselves are equivalent; rather it reminds people that all the members of this band have behaved badly throughout their history, and have behaved badly towards each other. People like to pick and choose to suit their narrative. Like how people forget, when picking through Carol's book, when the band refused to cancel a show after Lindsey had had a seizure, and had a spinal tap and was in serious pain. One could cherry pick lots of examples.

Like - a drunken John throwing an axe after Christine, barely missing her?
Alcohol and (legal and illegal) drug abuse do bring out the worst in people That's a fact.
Not one member of the band has been perfect (aside from the Perfect one, of course ).

I think this is the tweet that's being discussed, but it looks like it's from an older account Billy used to use:

"OKay, there was one time that Stevie a Chris were fighting (don't ask me why!) and Stvie picked up a chair and lobbed it at Chris!"

Here's the link:

Interestingly a few tweets above that he says Stevie can hold a grudge.

This type of violence is never okay. Doesn't matter whether it's a man or a woman. Case closed.

Again, false equivalency. Both are bad. But men assaulting women crosses so many lines; it is never acceptable. How would you feel if Lindsey grabbed your mother by the hair with one hand out the window whilst dragging her along the pavement with a car?

Indeed, but when it comes the her Highness, everything is aceptable.
And why is that? Because a man is stronger than a woman? Height and strenght are irrelevant when you're on drugs.

Okay, but this would have been during the Klonopin years. How far could she have thrown it?

The thought of 5'1 Stevie trying to throw a chair at 5'8 Christine doesn't inspire fear in me. It makes me .

I mean... being hit by a chair would hurt, no matter who threw it. Good thing she missed

REALLY?????? Can she do ANYTHING that you won't defend? JESUS F CHRIST! Now I know why certain people get into power. People will let them get away with anything if they are blinded by their fanaticism. JUST WOW

Yeah, I gotta second this... One of the more ridiculous comments over the last few weeks of shocking ridiculousness (from a lot of people).

MORE IMPORTANTLY, THOUGH: NO. KLONOPIN DOES A HELL OF A LOT MORE THAN JUST MAKE A PERSON TIRED, especially with regular use. The withdrawals come very fast and we're talking about a central nervous system depressant—lots of side effects from it, perhaps even when correctly spaced/dosed. At the very least it's important to note this because while SN rightly talks negatively about Klonopin, much of the medical community does not; it's still considered one of the best benzos. And it isn't. Not at all. Aside from the "Klonopin shuffle" (wobbly, easily fall over) being an occasional-to-regular occurence, there's the EATING, the people whom Klonopin relaxes to the point of manic or near-manic behaviors (shopping, sex, etc)... As bad for a person's behavior as a decade of being a cokehead—just different.

So, no, between the "laugh at the chair" and the claim that Klonopin only one makes one sleepy... COME ON NOW. Claims like this certainly aren't helping any case in defense of SN. And I write this a person who favors her in the various conversations...
