    ... those motherfuckers!

    Let me calm down. Okay ;)

    So I bought the remastered copy of Ballbreaker a while ago and I'm in an AC/DC kind of a place, so I've been getting through their entire catalog and goddamnit, they're a great band. Anyways, I'm listening to Ballbreaker right now. Not their greatest album, but still better than 99% of the crap put out by music companies these days. So I pull out the liner notes for the first time and they replaced the original version with some liner notes written by a fan.

    I loved those comic book pictures with the lyrics that were originally there.

    I mena, who gives a flying fuck what some fan I never heard of thinks about AC/DC? I mean, fuck, that's the kind of shit that leads to Harry Knowles being called a movie expert when he's a just a fat obnoxious fan with a website.

    I just want to punch someone right in the mouth for this affront to me.

    Fuckers.

    It's cool. I just want to find the executive at Epic Records that thought this was a good idea and simply hunt down his children so that his seed can be wiped from the earth, cut out his heart and show it to him beofre he dies, and then eat his brain, adding his power to mine.

    Is that so wrong?

    Damn. If I were clever, I could use this thread title to make JCD the obligatory butt of gay jokes here. But if I try, there's just 90% chance of it backfiring on me. :(

    Judging from this decision, you won't be getting much of a boost here.

    This rant is riding the same rails as the Han shot first trainwreck.

    Hopefully the original comic book pictures and lyrics will become/already are available, for the low, low, price of ...
