"I can't stand the thought of Frances becoming the miserable, self-destructive, death rocker that I've become"
It's great when rock stars who drink and have done drugs and maybe still drink, get together to create "rock royalty"..... Congratulations and good luck.

I agree though, when it comes to Frances. She's been used her entire life and she still is. "Rock royalty" indeed.
I just don't see Gerard and lynz as being as famous as people make them out to be.
They're not anywhere near as famous (they wish), but they have similar circumstances (i.e. in rock bands, former drug/alcohol dependency, mental health problems, etc.) and all of that does affect children.
About Frances, my only hope is that this is all just a phase for her, due to being a teenager, and that one day she will look back on now and the people she is currently hanging out with and think "How pathetic that was".
Does anyone else find it sad that MCR are only giving $1000 to a suicide charity. Yet GW can spend $1500 on a hand bag and $5000 to rent a monkey.
So this all I needed to declare that I am offically done with Gerard Way and My Chemical Romance.
Good fucking riddance!
Message to Gerard:
(if he ever comes across it, which I doubt, but what the hell, let me go for it.)
Your a prick and far from an original. Enjoy your fake fans, which I think you tried to eliminate, but inturn your eliminated most of your real fans. Hope you have a good life with your nobody of your wife and I hope you have a splendid amount of children, maybe they'll be more wiser then you.
Thank you for reminding me to never place my hopes on horrible entertainers such as you, espacially after stating that you and your band wanted to help kids all over this beautiful world.
Thanks for changing.
& Thank you VV for giving me a place to voice my opinion.
Good-bye all. :)
P.S. Gerard, you've lost a real fan btw, just letting you know that now.
Poor kid though.
Father sings about death and tells everyone they're not good enough.
Mother dances around in think mini-est of skirts.
Plus they'll always be on tour (if one of them doesn't quit)
It'll be interesting to see how 'it' turns out.
Gerard really does imply, if not say, that no one is as good as he is, doesn't he? He makes such a huge deal of his fame and monetary success and "encourages" people to "go do something" and "go live your life" as if what people are already doing is not enough.
Well, what if you don't want fame or money? What if you just want to be a "normal" person doing some real good to the world?
Just my mana'o and totally off the subject everyone else is on, sorry. :)
Don't be sorry, Kapunua, you are completely right.
That kid is going to have a serious inferiority complex.
But, let's hope, for the child's sake, that his manipulative/hypocritical behavior as an artist and performer is not indicative of how he will behave as a parent. Hopefully, he knows at least that much.
MCR are only giving $1000 to a suicide prevention charity only after 10,000 people have texted in -
Want to win new merch from MCR's store AND help to donate to charity as well? All you have to do is text MCR to 50505 from now until December 1st! On that date, we will randomly pick 10 people to get a gift certificate in the MCR store worth $30. Once 10,000 texts have been sent in, MCR will donate $1,000 to The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Send in your texts and help a great cause!
Those texts will be paying the $1000, and you notice it says only after 10,000 have texted in, if less text in they won't be required to donate the money. They're not actually using any of their own money, the donation will come from the texts, and the gift certificate is for the mcr store. And how generous of them - a $30 to spend on their merch in their store - merch that they doubltess need to shift before the new album and merch comes out.
I'm not knocking the competition, I just think that its pretty lame that the donation is dependant on the fans texting in and they will be making a profit on it. They havn't said that all proceeds will go to the charity, they've been very specific. Imagine if they got 12,000 or even 20,000 texts, they could make quite a profit and its only cost them $1000
@ everything 2:57 said:
FUCK. THAT.
I'll come back when I regain speech.
I just...ugh.
although its kinda nice of them to blog and use twitter to 'communicate' with fans, i still think this band is getting more and more ridiculous, especially with the text-in charity and so-called gift from their store. $ 30? oh come on, the hoodie featured on their front page costs more than that. :/
3:08
It's called desperation.
i think how they keep talking about how they don't know computers is all bullshit. they just want to pretend like they don't constantly read what people say about them on the internet.
someone should ask one of them on Twitter why they are only giving $1000 to charity when they are going to make much more than that through the fans texting.
a $1000 is pathetic for a band like MCR to give and they're not even giving it, the fans are. they've really turned into some cheap fucks.
You should do it, Anon.
Tell them what you think.
I don't have twitter.
Even on the mcr buzznet some fans have said the twitter thing is strange and have questioned whether it is too invasive. Surely a band that wanted its privacy is now doing everything to encourage fangirl obsessivness. You can open a twitter account and take part in their conversations directly with the band, although it probably will go through a mod first. I could understand a new band that has a small fan base and is desperate to encourage their fans, but an established rock group? It makes no sense. And you notice that there has been no mention of the forthcoming baby from Gerard - they are being very careful not to mention their girlfriends/wives, but at the same time are talking about personal things like what coffee maker they have. Its just bizarre.
Can you see a respected band like Metallica or Smashing Pumpkins keeping the fans updated through twitter. They have way too much time on their hands, and they really think we have nothing better to do with our time than follow their life.
i wonder why MCR doesn't announce lyn-z's pregnancy on their website and yet MSI posted it everywhere? :[
3.20:
I agree. They try to keep it private but unfortunately Mrs. G.Way sees it as a publicity.
i wonder why MCR doesn't announce lyn-z's pregnancy on their website and yet MSI posted it everywhere? :[
Because then fangirls won't want to have his babies and go to his concerts if they know that he and his wife are expecting.It will shatter their dreams of having a chance with the great gerard! LOL!
I think gerard should just pack up his diaper bag and grow up and move on with his life and be the best dad he can be.
Everything is publicity for MSI. It's disgraceful.
You can comment on Twitter? I've never seen that website; I know I hate it though because all my friends use it.
Dude, someone should post a link to Verita's.
LOL Kapunua, that would be great. Accept that they would probably never allow the link to go through. I think it's worth a try though>
We'll see how much srut gerards got left in him after a couple nights of staying up with the baby all night! Ha Ha!
Lyn-z is using her uterus as publicity? Whoa. That's an insult to us women.
^ I can easily see Gerard paying a nanny to take care of the baby so that he doesn't have to.
Instead of sharpies this time it will be spit up.
Gerard will be all "My baby is the best fucking baby in the WORlD and all other babies SUCK and are just copying him!" at the concerts now.
As far as I can work out from their new website, in the centre is random messages from the band, while all the stuff on the right is them responding to individual messages from people on twitter. So are they really sat there responding to messages - do they really have nothing else to do. Also it mainly seems to be Bob and Ray responding while Gerard is having a conversation with Bob and Ray, but not talking directly to people (there’s no @ so he’s not responding to a specific twitter - at least I assume that’s what the @ means). I really don’t know that much about twitter, but I got this of buzznet, where someone explained how to message them on twitter. They said you go to your own page, type "@(band member's account name)" in the update box followed by your message, then just click reply. Although it is going through mods, one girl said her comment was deleted as it was inappropriate, so all that will get through is the ones saying how much they love them - thereby boosting their giant egos even more.
there's no point looking at gerard's twitter - he's the only one who doesnt reply to fans or update with things worth reading anyway. i can still forgive mikey and frank because they're probably still trying to figure twitter out but gerard is just - ugh. :(
Gerard is being Gerard, what a surprise. He has his head shoved firmly up his arse as usual. Bob and Ray though seem to be making a real effort to respond. I really wish there was a way to support mcr without supporting Gerard.

November 25, 2008 4:23 PM
I completely agree, but at the same time the idea that this has been going on for a while and the other guys of MCR haven't done anything pisses me off. At least it looks like they didn't do anything. Damn! It's just either way you look at it, it looks messy.
i'm pretty sure they'll get tired of this twitter thing very soon.
i was just a Buzznet and it doesn't seem like people are that excited over Lindsey's pregnancy. on the Gerard Way forum the "Baby Name" thread only has 10 replies. the fandom is really starting to die out.
^at not a
...Yeah, they should totally die quicker though. :P
On the mcr buzznet there's over 300 comments on a post about Twilight, while posts about the actual band generate a fraction of that. I think the bands time is over.
Ok I understand about Gerard being a prick and not replying, but think about it, how many twitter messages must he get compared to Bob and Ray? Hmm... the two least popular members (just saying), or the HAWT lead singer?
Buzznet is insane. On the Baby Way post on the front of Buzznet I read these girls talking about how Gerard must have "fucked lynz so hard". And then I vomited. Yet, they say WE are the teenies? Right.
thanks a lot 5:11. now i have to vomit.
but anyway, they are very desperate now. i wonder how long will it take before they disappear completely...
how do they know if he fucked her hard? who knows, maybe he is impotent and lyn-z got it from a sperm bank.
i wonder if the reason they announced it on the week of Thanksgiving is because they used a turkey baster to get her pregnant.
Didn't you know that you got to "fuck hard" to get preggers. LOL!
Isn't she the second man to ever get pregnant?
^LMAO!
2:57,
I respect the fact that the money is being donated for charity, but I have to admit, that's a kinda shitty way of doing it.
5:48,
Hahaha. I'm sorry ,but that was kinda funny.
Hi guys,
Long time, no see.
So the creatures from the black lagoon are actually breeding? Noooooooooo!!!
Oh well, be happy for them, a new baby is a blessing, etc... but you just know they're gonna call it something even stupider than "Bronx Mowgli".
"Hypocritical Douchenozzle" for a boy, "For Women And Young Girls" for a girl, maybe?
that sounds about right ^
I ♥ you, Kass. ^_^
Wow i'm so glad i found this site. finally a place i can express all the things i have inside. its such a shame to see someone change so dramatically. i like gerard, thats why it makes me sad to see him act like this. and i wish he realised what he is doing and change and be the nice gerard he once was. but i guess that will not happen :( i like the band and the songs and i love what they used to stand for and their message bla bbla. so it's really sad to see all this change. i have been checking this twitter thing and yeah its amazing that gerard hasn't even bothered to reply to any fan. its like he just cares about what he thinks and he doesn't care about what fans have to tell. i feel he is kind of "tired" of all these teen fans . it looks like that but come on. he could be a little more "kind" at least , theyre the fans who have put him where he is now.
I don't dislike lynz ( idon't know her) . but i don't like MSI i don't like the music, the lyrics and the attitude of the singer creeps me out! i just can't stand him sorry. he seems annoying. I agree it's really strange the baby news is all over MSI sites. but MCR is saying nothing about it!
i thought gerard would be happy and would want to share his happiness with fans but it seems like he doesn't care ..
have you read his post btw? very disgusting :S let me down big styleeee.
I feel really disappointed :( I can't believe he is the person i once looked up to.
come on gerard wake up!
In my opinion, Gerard is an asshole since day one and he's trying to copy Billie Joe to be a "hero" but failed miserably.
i bet bob will stop twittering once he reached his destination.
It seems the others are already bored with it as well.
Anyone see Ray's advertisement? Wonder how much he's getting paid for adversising iPhone.
How low can you go oh mighty MCR?
i think they are endorsing starbucks, and recently, coffee bean as well. its a shame to see 12 year old fangirls spending their parents hard earned money on overpriced coffee.
A recent playing card set attached as a promotional item with a c rated bands on everything from sex appeal to credibility, offering a bonus for beards.
My Chemical Romance received no beard bonus.
But we still scored pretty high.
An ad for Kerrang!. They are the only UK music magazine I can think of that would do something like that
i bet the high score goes for sex appeal. they lost their credibility years ago.
Oh. Hmmm. Crap.
I really hoped the pregnancy news was someone's idea of a sick joke. But hey! Maybe now someone will have to get their head out from their ass. Or maybe not.
Funny though how MSI are shouting it from the rooftops, yet MCR aren't. I thought they would have been - it would have at least killed the obsession of creepy teenies who want to sleep with Gerard.
It's quite sad to see the MCR fandom die, yeah. But are we really shocked? It's been dying for well over a year now. I think it was dying out even before they hooked up with MSI. People bought TBP but were really disappionted with it, and things went downhill from there.
If they really cared about the band, they would save themselves the embarrassment of everything unravelling in front of fans and some hateful words being exchanged, and call it a day now.
My Chemical Romance
2002-2007
It was fun while it lasted.
I don't think I'll post here anymore. I've said what I have to say and I'm letting go.
Kudos to VV for having the guts to go public even when she's been abused by teenies and fangirls, and good luck to everyone here.
"While we will ask some of our friends to fill in for LynZ - and at a later date, Steve - so that they can be with their new families, neither member is leaving Mindless Self Indulgence permanently."
Translation: "LynZ will eventually leave MSI because she already gets what she wants".
i have to say that this blog is so inspiring. btw, does anyone know if there's any MCR hate group on livejournal that i can join?
I think Twitter is finally letting the fans see just how full of crap Gerard is. For someone who used to have a message, all he goes on about is beards and shit. People used to think he was so deep and insightful - it was probably just an act. I also agree that it is strange how MSI have announced the forthcoming baby but the MCR website has been silent. Wasn’t Lynz offended in that Kerrang interview she did about being called Mrs Gerard Way - she is now only going to be known as the mother of Gerard Way’s baby, and yet her band is the one announcing it, but then, they are the ones with upcoming shows they need to sell tickets too. I think Gerard’s choice of wife shows the kind of person he truly is and the values he has. Lynz dropped out of college (something she was proud of in that interview with Jimmy), her band was going nowhere, she was never going to do anything remarkable with her life so why not just be known for her vagina and what she can produce from it. How inspiring she must be to little girls - you don’t need any talent, just the ability to bend backwards and open your legs and you can marry a rockstar and have his babies. That is so empowering, what an inspiration she is.

Yeah, what she^^ said.
I just hope Lyn-Z's ditched the booze & happy powder and stocked up on folic acid...
...and that it's a BOY, if her public musings on feminism and "inspiring" girls is in any way representative!
Kass xx
P.S. How tragic is it that the new capitals on our proper nouns made me so happy?!
oh btw, does anyone noticed that one of the message under MCR logo on their website says "You go save the world. I'll just be myself"?
MCR's new website -- um...yeah. Coffee Makers, Heroes With Style, Beards...
Back when Gerard and Eliza were together, I used to read Eliza's blogs occasionally and wonder how in the world he could be with someone so shallow...
Now, after reading his blogs, I understand it completely.
nobody expect bob updates their twitter since the last 23 hours.
i guess they're bored with it already.
It's strange that they didn't score high on the "beard" thing, whatever that is. Seeing as how Gerard has one.
Hahaha, I slay myself, sorry. ;)
Believe it or not, not every band out there aims for "going somewhere". Some of them just like to play, no matter how small the crowd is.
And yes, totally, because by having a boy it only shows how sexist both of them are. Because they can totally choose what gender it is.
I think you missed Kass's point, anon. Entirely.
Actually, someone else said that they hoped they had a girl, this way maybe if Gerard had a daughter, he would think about how he had talked to other peoples' daughters.
However, unfortunately any child is going to get its parents' values, and I know many people who didn't change their ways just because they had children.
Didn't some of the Motley Crue guys have daughters?
the fact that he watches shit reality tv disappointed me more than anything, honestly.
Anyone see Ray's advertisement? Wonder how much he's getting paid for adversising iPhone.
How low can you go oh mighty MCR?

But most band who just like to play don't latch themselves onto more famous bands like leaches. Nor do they run around talking about playing for rock royalty.

Have you been hiding under a rock or just had your head up msi's asses. If you are willing to pay the money you can pick what sex your child will be. Kapu already gave a great rebuttal to the rest of your comment.
Given the circumstances of this (as in, this was most likely unplanned) I don't think it was an option. Unless I am mistaken on the details of the treatments for that, which in that case I apologize, and please enlighten me.
I don't believe it was planned either. I was just correcting that comment about not being able to pick your baby's sex.
I think Gerard is probably shitting himself about being a father. There was an interview with MSI where Jimmy Urine talks about when he has kids he's going to have to be different or something, and then the interviwer mentions that it was Lynz who brought up the subject of babies. She obviously wanted one, I wonder if they were trying or she 'accidently' forgot to take the pill one day. Either way she's set herself up for life, even if she and Gerard broke up she would get child support. Who needs to try at school anymore when you can just have some famous guy's baby.
She would only get child support if she is given custody.
Okay so. . .
Let's say they break up.
The kid is either racist, sexist and homophobic.
Or,
The kid's dad o.0
"Some of them just like to play, no matter how small the crowd is."
I clearly missed the part where Lyn-Z learned to actually play her bass, but then I have been away from the blogs for a little while...
...and damn, that child is going to grow up to really appreciate his/her friends being able to view all those crotch shots and in-no-way-embarrassing Sharpie messages at the click of a mouse. Vive le Buzznet!
MCR have already gotten sick of twitter. Advertising things is just too boring. Poor them.
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not" - Kurt Cobain
someone else's motto?
i'll give MCR a pass on not Twittering yesterday. it was a Holiday and bob hasn't slept in a few days. he must be exhausted from all that driving.
"You go save the world. I'll just be myself."
wow
Is there a program that changes it every five secs or does someone actually get paid doing this? do they do it in the middle of the night too? Ive never been on during then
I saw this and just...ugh.
(Sorry I don't know how to make a link directly)
http://www.buzznet.com/tags/lynz/photos/jimmy-chantal/?id=63676811
And these are the people who are Gerard's best friends now. Did anyone see that video on youtube with Jimmy simulating sex with that puppet of his wife from her music video, and his wife making the appropriate noises for it. These people just disgust me.
I don't want to look but what are they doing?
she's licking his chest. that was gross.
Is he sure it's his?
Hm. Guess the messages don't go through mods. Some guy called Bob a fake. Then Bob smartly retorted with: You're a fake.
Oooh.
XP
^ I'm beginning to wonder when they're going to change the tag on their website to "I know you are, but what am I?"
wow i just gave a quick look at twitter. and there's a girl who left about 20 msgs to bob! no wonder why they don't bother repyling to fans. soon bob will get tired and bored of it all and twitter will be gone for good. I'm waiting for the old MCR to rise like a phoenix from the ash.i guess i'll wait forever...
I find it quite disturbing that one girl left 20 messages to Bob, also there were the messages from Bob telling a few of them not to cry. Are some of them really crying over simply messaging Bob. I think this Twitter thing is a bad idea, I can just see all these girls sat there by their phones waiting for them to message back. Its encouraging unhealthy behaviour and encouraging them to be obsessed.
Hmmmm. . . Maybe MCR want to die and be seen as sellouts? Maybe they're tired of their life, so advertising things seems like a good way to get people suspicious about them. With Gerard's kid and all, and all of them married (but Bob) Maybe they want to fail in order to leave the band- but with out saying it them selves, so later they can whine about the band failing or something. Because Gerard made them out to be something they're not. Maybe they're tired of pretending??
i'll bet Mikey and Alicia were talking about starting a family together and that's why Gerard knocked up Lindsey so fast into their marriage. i remember reading an interview with Gerard before PR where he said people in his family thought he would be the one to get married and have children first ecause he was older than Mikey. i think Gerard feels a lot of pressure to do things before Mikey does them and that's probably why he got engaged to Eliza right after Mikey married Alicia.
^ I agree with it. Lindsey was just there. If it hadn't been her, it would have been the other girl in the band. Or a bass tech. Or a merch girl. Or a different hairdresser. Or a fan. Gerard was willing to get with anyone who was within five feet of him and willing.
And desperation has a smell.
On a bn thread announcing their baby, a good potion of he comments only talk about how he's changed and how he's forgotten his fans. It's seems like everyone's moving on now.
Gerard used to come off all humble and sweet in interviews. But, for nearly two years now, he's acted like a pompous ass. He really needs to learn that nobody likes a pompous ass. Looks like he's going to learn it the hard way.
Does anyone have a link to the interview Anon 27 Nov was talking about, where Lyn Z brings up the subject of kids?
Someone said on BN that Gerard wore Lynz's jacket to his signing on Friday.
Her, from quite a while ago now
http://www.buzznet.com/tags/lynz/photos/msi/?id=62004111
Him on friday
http://www.buzznet.com/tags/lynz/photos/gerard-way/?id=63786151
Can he not afford his own clothes now? I guess at least he isn't wearing that jean jacket that he's been wearing for the past year or those silly little badges with her picture in them. Plus in the photo with Lynz the jacket is white, but on Gerard it looks more cream. If he is going to wear his wife's clothes I think he should have gotten it dry cleaned first. Can he not do anything though without involving Lynz in some way.
It's like he has no identity any more. He always said about how he didn't fit in with the cool kids, but I think deep down he wanted to fit in. Now he has abandoned everything he was just to fit in with Lynz and Jimmy and their group of friends. He's being whatever he has to be to be part of their crowd. I almost feel kind of sorry for him, I wonder if one day he will realise or if thats it for him and this is the person he is now.
Can he not afford his own clothes now?
No, he thinks it's more hardcore not to wash your clothes while wearing the same ones constantly. Apparently he missed the memo that said manipulating teenage girls for an audience and having action figures in TWO different ventures makes you a complete and utter sellout. But you keep wearing those dirty clothes, honey, and you'll stay "Rock n' Roll", we promise.
2:14 i don't think he really has a vast closet of clothes. he seems to always wear the same thing. maybe he needed a jacket and just grabbed the first thing he saw. but i agree with you on the badges. really silly.
From Bob's Twitter:
"wake up! dont be mad about the C word. lighten up please..."
WTF? Excuse me? It isn't addressed to anyone specific, its just a general note he left.
how can being dirty and smelling make you more "hardcore"? that's just plain dumb.
at least the insider on buzznet got it right. she said they are perfect together. i think she meant they were exactly the same as each other. bleh!
Correction to my post at 3:35
He wrote that because his previous post was a picture of letters hung on a wall that spelled out C.U.N.T.
I'm guessing he got a lot of shit for that, thus the "lighten up"
So, I repeat, WHAT. THE. FUCK.
Is that supposed to be cute? I guess I'm just not "cool" enough to find the humor in it. No, Bob, I don't think I will lighten up.
3:35, i think they have their little snoops going around the fandom letting them know what's been going on. i think that's why they don't make sense on twitter. i even think that's why LM is touring with msi. it's their way of saying the whole band support msi.
i've got a bad feeling about this. their next album could be like msi.
How much you wanna bet the teenies don't say a word about that message on Buzznet?
even if they wanted to, the thread would just be locked. seems like even the admin even thinks the sun shines out of their ass.
i think there's a lot of damage control going on.
What was really sickening was all the responses to his picture of the word CUNT telling him how good it was. Does he really think that was an appropriate thing to post. And now we know what Bob has on his wall - CUNT in letters. It isn't helping my opinion of the band, and isn't that what twitter was all about.
whose great idea was it to go on twitter? i bet it was gerard's.

Um, the staff member on buzznet who takes care of the Gerard Way forum is Panasonicyouth. Just go here, scroll down a bit and you can read what that person says. He used to delete many interesting threads in that forum without giving information to the people as to why he did it. I think by reading his comments on afore-mentioned site it must be pretty clear that he's just another fansheep. BAH, BAH, BAH!
Panasonicyouth is an asshole who doesn't believe in freedom of speech. he's at BN calling kids douchebags because they don't like Lindsey and the fact that she's going to be the mother of Gerard's
baby.
^ I remember him deleting threads and accounts for no reason too. He likes to ass kiss any celebs out there in case he gets an exclusive for the website. He's always trying to come off and reasonable bbut anyone who's been around BN knows otherwise.
TUA
Speaking of Panasonicyouth, wasn't he in the Anti-MSI fans for a while? I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure he was.
Speaking of the Anti-MSI fans, I find them extremely bias. They have a Lyn-z hate group, but they turn a blind eye at Gerard's douche-ness. They call her a bitch, but they say he's great. I joined their group so I could get a good reasoning (like here) but all there is is a bunch of I love Gerard teenies, who are just jealous of Lyn-z.
And I'm not even pro Lyn-z either, because of her morals, and etc. but the way they talk about her, it's just..."get over it".
Sorry, this has nothing to do with the conversation, but I had to let it out.
Actually, I don't know what's the use of a staff member/mod/admin when that person isn't capable of being unbiased and objective. Other than that, the person is just another cyber bully who can ban you anytime only for speaking your mind/saying things they don't agree with and you can't do anything against it. It just makes no sense! I wouldn't be suprised if Panasonicyouth used to suck up to Eliza as well only to get 'closer to God'.
Ridiculous!!!
Speaking of Panasonicyouth, wasn't he in the Anti-MSI fans for a while? I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure he was.
I think he probably joined that group(?) because of their use of the word 'faggot'. With him being gay it's understandable that he's not fond of people using that word.
But then, he doesn't seem to mind words that demean women.
PSY only joined the Anti-MSI group so he could keep an eye on them and he did treat Eliza with specialty - he deleted may a thing because she might have found it offencive.
As for the Anti MSI group, they do harp on slightly but I've NEVER seen them praise Gerard. Or am I missing something?
In defence of the anti msi group they are surrounded by people who think Lindsy is the greatest person who was ever born. They try top say she not and they get yelled at by a bunch of fan sheep.
Wasn't there the MCI group (My chemical idiots) who got deleted because of...er, no special reason?
The anti-MSI site is a little ridiculous and you can definitely tell there is some jealousy going on there, but never have I seen anyone praise Gerard there.
I think the reason PYS gave for deleting MCI was that they were planning an attack on a person at BN. Which was funny because in the early days of this blog that person would come over here and attack people. Brought in a whole bunch of the "MCRMY" screaming attack.
Wasn't it that voluptuosity fruitcake?
I still have to laugh so hard when I remember how Kass fooled everyone at bn by picking a similar nick and posting the biggest, looniest fan sheep crap ever. And nobody of the other fan sheep got it. Bwahahahahaha! Priceless!!
I think the reason PYS gave for deleting MCI was that they were planning an attack on a person at BN.
Which was complete bullshit!! It wasn't the group owners who did anything and it wasn't organised by the group in anyway so I was just pulling excuses out of his ass (like usual).
As far as I know the group was private and I wonder how he could have known about things going on there unless bn had a mole in that group.
Apparently, now Bob thinks it's cute to use the word "cunt". If I had a twitter account (which I do not), I would go to their website and say that I have a piece of "art" that says "P R I C K" and I call it "Bob".
I think that was the case that their was a mole in there.
Twitter is a dangerous thing. I see even more fans leaving mcr because of it.
Yeah, the twitter thing isn't making the other guys look too good either. I used to think it was just Gerard who was acting like a douchebag, but apparently, Douchebaggery is contagious.
I wonder if they are doing that hoping that people won't think Gerard is a big ass anymore.
I thought it was bad enough that their new website was just a big advertisement, with a few immature ramblings included on the side by Gerard. But now Bob brought in a special little dose of sexism to it.
They just keep proving us right, don't they?
Bob uses the c-word? I think he's begging for a kick in his nuts! I bet mommy Briar is really proud of her son. Lighten up? I'll kick your fucking ass, dick!
They really don't want fans to come back, do they?
They should change their tag to "We hate Women".
They should change their tag to Thanks for your money! You can fuck off now!
LOL.
Exactly
Cupcaaaaaaaaaaaaake!!!! How are you, doll? Long time, no read! I just saw your name. I first thought you were an anon.
Aw, that's okay. I kind of just slipped into the conversation.
I've just been to their site. Bob the flop seems to have much time on his hands.
He probably doesn't have a girlfriend because he has C.U.N.T. on the wall in his house.
That word physically hurts.
Who wants to nail that ferret anyway? He is lucky to be in a famous band.
LOL. Yeah, but he's the drummer. That only gets you somewhere if you're Tommy Lee.
I'm starting to think there was good reason for them never letting him speak in the past.
I'm starting to think there was good reason for them never letting him speak in the past.
Hahahahahahahahaha! Bob the flop got gagged in the past because his attitude was out of sympathy with the band's former image. Now he can say what he really thinks. Well, apparently he thinks of nothing because airheads can't, but we seem to know his favorite word now.
If people thought Gerard was a douchbag, maybe they should ask Bert that question because it makes me wonder if Gerard was treating his friends(Including the former drummer Matt) like shit even before the band hit the big time.
BC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOW DOWN!!!
Bob has artwork on his wall of the C-word and yet most of his bands fanbase is female - the same fanbase that probably paid for that piece of 'artwork' through record sales. Are these guys really that stpuid to think something like that is cool and, even worse, is the fanbase really that stupid to think that is cool. What happened to MCR being against objectifying women and why on earth would you want that word on your wall anyway. Is it a guy thing, because I really don't get it.
That's what I call 'art'!! I went to that site and read the comments. It's unbelievable how adult(?) men in their late 20's or early 30's are so dependent on little teenie girls kissing their asses. Sad! So sad!
Where do you so the comments?
*see
On Bob the flop's twitpic site. Below his pic with his unique 'artwork'.
Do they mod the comments on there? Because it seems that EVERYONE on there thinks its funny. I know they're just kissing his ass but there has to be atleast SOMEONE who disagreed and wanted to let him know it.
I bet he deleted all the negative comments because I saw a few that seemed to express that there had been alot of people reacting negatively.
What a coward.
I think there were numerous people complaining about it and the mod must have told him. Otherwise, I wouldn't understand why he posted that 'lighten up' message. He must know that many were pissed.
Once again- I will make the point that maybe MCR want to leave the music business, Gerard and Mikey with their comics, Gerard with his kid, Ray with his new wife and bob with his fantastic art skills. They all have loads of money and are set for life.
The next album will be their last, I can count on it.
And Frank, with that whole "band" thing of his.
If they even make it far enough to get a new album out, that is.
BOBOSAN, YOU RULE! Where would I be able to purchase the materials to replicate such a piece of art? I love the c word...it is very emphatic.
Lolz...smooothh!! I've been saying that a lot lately, that's funny.
Some MCR fans just fill you will wonder. Because the c word is wery emphatic, notice the person who left that message couldn't even say cunt, so I'm betting after this lots of teenies will begin using that word in their forums.
MMCR bring peace and happiness to the world.
All hail MCR >.<
I wonder if they're trying to piss Warner off?
It's a sure bet that Warner/Reprise isn't going to fork over the kind of cash they did promoting TBP on the new record. Even after all the hype, the ridiculously expensive TBP tour, the first couple of expensive videos, etc., the album sold far below Warner's expectations of 10-15 million copies. I imagine Gerard was pretty pissed when they nixed the video for Mama (along with his directorial "debut"). Maybe this website thing is their lame attempt to do a "Prince" to punish the label for not letting them out of their contract.
From wiki:
"The word "c##t" is generally regarded in English-speaking countries as unsuitable in normal public discourse and has been described as "the most heavily tabooed word of all English words"...In referring to a woman, c##t is an abusive term usually considered the most offensive word in that context and even more forceful than bitch...It can also be used to imply that the sexual act is the primary function of a woman."
Maybe I should send that to Bob's twitter. There are some words you should just not use and that has to be one of them - but to post a picture of it on your website is just beyond stupid. Bob did say the'artwork' is recent - I wonder if he got it when he went to visit Gerard in LA, maybe Jimmy hooked him up with it, it seems like his sort of thing.
^Send it.
Anon 2:48 - I think you might be right. I remember reading in magazines when TBP first came out and people predicting it would be huge and sell millions, but it never did live up to all the hype. I think I read that MCR has sold 6 million albums worldwide, including Bullets, Revenge and TBP, which suggests TBP only sold about 4 at a guess. Plus, look how TBPID bombed. No wonder Gerard keeps saying this next album will be more stripped back - they’re not going to have much choice.
Post that as a comment 2:51.
I think all the live records they keep releasing might just be so they can fulfill their contractual obligations with WB/Reprise. Who knows? Maybe Warner are the ones who are fed up and they want to ditch MCR?
I think the problem is, most of the girls commenting on that picture don't really appear to fully grasp the full connotations of the word. They keep describing it as "just a word for vagina". Being mostly young girls, they are probably still in that "oh, he said VAGINA - gigglegiggle" stage. You know?
Or maybe, I just don't want to believe that some people could be so...pathetic.
Just saw this and had to share.
I have the J* underwear that say the same thing. Love that word!
You have to be fucking kidding me.
"Lol thats pretty cool cept i find that word quite offencive haha but good use of free time, I would never have thought of it haha"
You're offended but you think it's pretty cool? What?
Wait until some of these idiot girls go out into the real world and encounter the kind of sexual harassment and discrimination that some of us have. Maybe then they won't think that word is "so cool" anymore.
You know, this band is having some kind of identity crisis. At first it seemed like just Gerard, but now it's just "MCR." They are clearly trying very, very hard to appear "edgy" and "dangerous." The only problem is that they look like a bunch of fools. Bob just showed himself to be a total douche. I mean, what was the point of doing that? Isn't it a little, well, pointless?
I wonder how it feels that their only defense is a bunch of badly-spelled kudos from teenies and the rare adult fangirl?
MRC is just a joke anymore. I feel embarrassed that I ever even listened to them. I've deleted all their music and tossed the one t shirt I got.
It doesn't matter to them, of course, and why should it? They have utter respect for the fans('s wallets.) And they won't mind a few ex fans walking away for the right reasons, when they're going to pull a million bucks off a bunch of trendy scene-queens with their new album, which I understand is tentatively titled Smell The Glove.
LOL but I hear it's supposed to be SEXY!
Someone with Twitter should send the exalted "Bobosan" a link to this post. I'd put money on a "I know you are but what am I, you c----s?" reply.
Also, I can't believe no one laughed at my "beard" joke from a few days ago. >_<
;D
To be honest, i didn't get the beard joke.
A beard is the woman that a gay man marries to appear straight. I got it.
what was the joke again kapunua?
I thought your beard joke was funny, Kapunua. ^__^
A Four-Letter Word
Slut — 1: a slovenly woman : SLATTERN 2a: a lewd woman; esp : PROSTITUTE b: a saucy girl : MINX
Ah, "slut." A compact little word, forceful even in the way it sounds, starting out with a hissing sibilant and pushing off of the tongue through the L and U, and then that nastily crisp T. "Slut." Say it a few times out loud. Roll it around in your mouth. "Sssslut." "Sss…lllut." Say it again. Notice that it's difficult — almost impossible, in fact — to pronounce it neutrally. It's got a sneer built into it, that word. It's not as twangy and unthreatening as "tramp." It's not as easy to yell as "whore." "Whore" is built for screaming rage and dishes flying through the air, with a nice gusty H at the front and a big old roaring R bringing up the rear. Not "slut," though. "Slut" is muttered. "Slut" is whispered. "Whore" comes in like a punch, but "slut" tingles, like a slap. "Slut" hides behind the teeth. "Slut" is for when your back is turned.
"Slut" is for when you don't act like a lady. "Slut" is for when you sit with your legs apart. "Slut" is for when you wear it short, tight, without a bra, cut up high and down low and around the side, because, see, "slut" is also for when you have the nerve to enjoy your body in front of women who hate their own bodies. Don't strut. Don't dance with soul, or lick your lips. Don't look too good; don't think you look too good. Digging your own self is slutty. Making your own good time is slutty. Who do you think you are, anyway? Knees together, slut.
"Slut" is for when you forget to hate and fear boys. "Slut" is for when you talk to them, flirt with them, hang out with them and watch kung fu movies, pretend they don't suck at guitar, sit on their laps, cut their hair. "Slut" is for when you don't remember that you can't have a male friend unless he's your brother or gay, because your male friends want to fuck you, and you can't handle that. "Slut" is liking sports and belches and messy apartments — or, rather, "liking" those things, because you couldn't really like those things. You just pretend to like them so that you can get attention from men, because you have no personality of your own, and even if you did, men only want you for your action anyway. That's pathetic. Get a life, slut.
"Slut" is for when, in spite of everything you've learned from Cosmo and your sorority sisters, you just love men, for when you want to look at them and talk about them and burrow your nose into their necks and lick them from head to toe and hop right on them when they walk in the door like that scene from Raising Arizona where Holly Hunter clings to Nicolas Cage like a wood tick. Ugh. That's so undignified. That's so unfeminine. "Slut" is for walking down the street and talking to a friend on your cell phone and watching a cute boy walk past in the opposite direction and looking at him and looking away and looking back and then turning around in mid-sentence to keep looking. "Slut" is for thinking of stubble burn and biting your lip. "Slut" is for remembering the way your first true love used to pin you up against his car door and flushing clear up to the roots of your hair. "Slut" is for big hands and deep voices. "Slut" is for on top of you and under you and behind you, in the closet, on the floor, under the piano. "Slut" is for liking it. "Slut" is for wanting it. "Slut" is for going after it. Men hunt, women gather; men chase, women wait. Look it up, slut.
"Slut" is for kissing boys with tongue. "Slut" is for kissing lots of different boys with tongue. "Slut" is for craving kissing lots of different boys with tongue. That's not right, you know. It says so in the Bible, and in social hygiene films. "Slut" is for loving sex. "Slut" is for needing sex. "Slut" is for thinking sex isn't shameful. Sex is for married people, for diamond owners, for nice girls in twin sets whose mothers hid the Erica Jong, for people totally and completely, like, in total and complete love, and it takes place behind closed doors, with the lights out. Sex isn't fun. Sex isn't casual. Sex is a deadly serious, disgusting, dirty, degrading business. Just lie there. Don't move around. Don't use your fingernails or moan or anything; that's slutty. Don't get on top. Don't go down. Going down is really slutty, especially if you like it as much as he does. Ew. That's so gross. Only a slut would like that. That's so sickening. I bet you masturbate, too. Ew, I can't even think about that. That's so foul — touching yourself down there like that? That's — well, it's dirty and sticky and gross, dude! Nobody does that. Well, boys do, but that's different.
"Slut" is for sex outside a committed relationship. Sex outside a committed relationship is a cry for help. It means you have no self-respect, obviously. You're, like, a total nympho, man. I can't believe you would even do that. God. Don't talk about it. Don't think about it. Don't miss it. Don't daydream about doing it with Josh Hartnett in a waterfall. I mean — yuck. That's totally slutty. Are you, like, desperate or something? Why else would you just have sex with a guy? That's so wrong. You're so wrong. You're such a slut.
"Slut" is for fucking on the first date, giving head instead of your number, not caring if he calls, caring if he calls but fucking another guy to pass the time. You do that stuff, well, clearly you're a slut. What's even worse? You, like, enjoy it. It's so show-offy, too. Like, "look at me, I think I'm a guy," like Samantha on Sex & The City, like, get over yourself, hon. And, I mean, Samantha brings home at least one new guy every week, but she's, like, obviously so miserable and empty inside because she never settles down. Don't you want to get married? How do you ever expect to get married if you keep slutting around? You have to save yourself. I mean, no man's going to want you if you've slept with, like, a million other guys before him. You're used. You're dirty. He'll fuck you, but he'll never bring you home to his mother, because you didn't stay pure and go to bed only with guys you loved. And you can't have more experience than your husband; that's just not done. What if he gets insecure about it? You'll scare him off. You don't want that, do you?
And you've probably got diseases. I bet you don't even use protection. Remember? How you have no self-respect? And don't use condoms and birth control, because you just want guys to like you, so you just fuck them? That's so sad. I feel really sorry for you. Yeah, you say you enjoy it, but it's just a compulsion, and it's pitiful, really.
Just stay away from my man, okay? Don't even talk to him. Women have to look out for each other, because men would never look out for us, because we don't deserve their respect and fidelity. We women have to stick together. If he steps out on me with you, that's not his fuck-up. It's yours. I mean, you're the slut here. You obviously came onto him all barracuda-style and lured him into bed, so I blame you completely. So just don't even go over there to talk to him. He'd never treat me right, and if I left you two alone, something would happen.
God, I can't even look at you. You just prance around acting all carefree like you don't care what happens, like it doesn't matter, like you have the right to sleep with whomever you want or something — you make me ill! I hate you! Fuck you, slut!
If you found yourself nodding along in sincere agreement with any of what's written above, you have a serious, serious problem and need to report to your nearest therapist for a course of self-esteem rehabilitation and double-standard deprogramming. The rest of you may continue to wear your sluttiness with pride. Here endeth the lesson.
I wonder what PYS will do when the fans sheep start using c--t. I remember he once baned a girl for calling another that word. But he is an MCR ass kisser so this time he will probably be alright with it being used.
8:18 are you for real? Not only does that essay read likes a republican manual of how how to discredit the feminist movement. Or it was written by a fifteen year old.
You enjoy sex fine, you want to dress in tight clothes to show off what a great body you have fine. But please stop thinking that some how that makes you a feminist or empowered woman.
8:18, I personally am not for calling women sluts. But, what do you say to a band like MSI who calls women bitches and whores?
And what do you say to a guy like Bob, the drummer of a band who used to claim to respect women?
Also, what's a good word for "can't play an instrument, doesn't feel like learning and fully admits this fact; is in a band anyway which sings about women being whores and bitches; garners fame from more famous sellout husband and gets rented chimps and thousand dollar bags into the deal while pretending to be an 'inspiration' to girls?"
Is there an appropriate word for a woman like that?

Truth.

a fake
I remember reading that article where Lynz said she did what she did to inspire other girls. It made me laugh, then want to vomit. But there are girls who actually think she is amazing - you only have to look on buzznet. What they don't realise is that Lynz's act is not new - women have been going on stage wearing barely nothing and entertaining men for centuries, only she happens to be holding a bass when she does it - talk about a giant phallic symbol. Women have also been playing in rock bands for years, but most of them are actual musicians who can play their insturements and don't need to bend over backwards on stage - what an accomplishment that is. But then her husband likes to makes young girls moan for him - I don't think either of them knows what feminism is and it doesn't matter if you say you are a feminist if your actions don't support that.
And why hasn't Bob taken that picture of the C-word down yet, or their management, or the rest of the band. Why hasn't one of them spoken up and told him to delete it.

because this is the face of the new MCR
^ Because they don't care! They're hoping to piss off the female fans and gain more male fans with their sexist attitude.
What those idiots don't get is that they can't get rid of the silly, screaming fangirl/woman and only tick off the people who were actually interested in what they had to say and what music they make instead of lusting after them and passing out at concerts because their singer is moaning and fondling his genitals.
Their former fan base was good enough to get them where they are now. Famous and wealthy people who are set for life. And now those fans can fuck off.
I bet that bottling incident at the Reading Festival scarred Gerard for life. I think it showed him that male rock fans think he's a laughing stock and his band is not to be taken seriously. That must have hurt and be very embarrassing. He also might have compaired the fan crowd at his concerts with the crowd of other rock bands. To see that the first 20 rows are studded with hysterical screaming and crying girls/women who look as if they're waiting for the new boyband to appear on stage to throw stuffed animals at them and that there's hardly any men to find...
If MCR had stayed the way they were before hooking up with msi they would have gained the respect of older fans and males who don't spend their time getting drunk and throwing bottles of piss at each other.
At both of the Mcr concerts I went to their were young makes their with their fathers. Both times the dads were enjoying the concerts more than the boys.
I have ever heard morning show host (other than man cow) say they like MCr. In fact on one occasion A man called up to request an MCR song on the radio. They were already going to play WTTBP but he was sick of hearing that song and wanted to hear sometime older.
Most of the times I have heard males talk about MCR they have had good things to say.
It is a extremely dumb move on MCR's part to move to this new image of being hxc. Those fans that Gerard wants so badly to have the respect of will never respect him or MCR. Especially now that they want to come across as being hxc. They can see it for what it is a lame attempt to get a new image.
I think the band has not been marketed correctly and I feel poorly managed. I think they were aiming for the quick buck.
I also think if the right decisions were made, they would more prominent and much more credible. Their management may have thought they could sell their concept easier because of their pretty boy looks. They were young and may have even believed all the hype and tripe they were fed. It's obvious now they are trying to make their own decisions without a firm grasp of where to head. Sadly it happens to a lot of bands.
i'm so surprised that Gerard hasn't said anything about the baby he and Lindsey are expecting. i thought he would be gushing over it like he does when he's talking about Lindsey. a lot of people are saying that he doesn't look to happy in the pics from the TUA signing he did last week. he also apologized to a fan for being "out of it" at the TUA party a couple of weeks ago. by the way Gerard's acting, it seems like he was caught off guard by the pregnancy.
I am happy that he isn't talking about the baby mama to be and the baby.
He did say in the past that he didn't want kids.
I was just about to say how he could have made an effort to smile at the TUA signing. You would think that someone like him who has been in this buisness for years could just smile and pretend he was happy to be there, even if he wasn't. But for someone who is expecting a baby, he doesn't look that happy, or maybe its because he had to leave Lynz's side for a few hours. Either way he could have at least pretended for a few hours, its called being a professional. But Gerard is a special snowflake who shouldn't have to associate with his fans or be expected to act like a man instead of a spoilt ten year old or even smile if he doesn't want to.
You may be right Anon^^. I don't pay much attention these days, but there's been a distinct lack of "amaayzing"s of late!
"It is a extremely dumb move on MCR's part to move to this new image of being hxc."
So like every other band that tried to switch image/gain credibility, then?! Bros and New Kids On The Block's attempts to be taken seriously by fighting the "record company puppets"-image and write their own material crashed and burned almost a full TWO decades ago*. You'd think bands would have learned by now!
Kass xx
*Darn, I feel old...
Kass no need to feel old. I was thinking the same thing about boy bands trying to change their image. It always fails.
It you want to be taken seriously you have to let the music speak for itself. if the songs are good people will like them and you will have staying power.
Smiling is what people in boy bands do. Gerard is hxc now so he can't smile.
He was smiling. He wasn't all LOL HI but he wasn't a bitch. But if I was him I don't know if I'd have smiled much myself. Seeing a sea of teen girls in MCR merch at a comic book signing must have been kind of disappointing. Though I'm not sure why he'd have been surprised. Maybe because I got up there fairly early, and he wasn't totally exhausted by the squealing masses yet.
And maybe, just maybe, he's learned to keep his mouth shut about certain issues.
I don’t think he should have been surprised to see people there in their black t-shirts and MCR merch. From the very beginning he hasn’t been treated like other comic book writers - new comic book writers do not get merch for their book released during their first series, let alone movie deals, and they certainly don’t have release parties thrown for them. Unless you’re Gerard Way of course. Most of the attention for the comic book has been because he’s the lead singer of MCR, and a lot of the people who buy the comic book are buying it because they support MCR. I’m sure there are some non-MCR people who have bought it, but the overwhelming majority seem to be MCR fans.
^That wasn’t very clear. The point I was trying to make was the fans have created this success for him. The only reason he got a comic book deal and so much media attention around it was because he was in MCR. How many comic book writers get to go on a panel with Grant Morrison at comic con after publishing one series. None. And yet he seems to not think very much of the MCR fans and treats them like crap a lot of the time.
Grant Morrison killed Batman.
And yet he seems to not think very much of the MCR fans and treats them like crap a lot of the time.
And why do youstill support him with your time and money if you feel that way?
That's what I just can't understand! People say: Hmm, yeah, he's changed and not for the better. Hmm, yeah, he treats his fans like crap. and still they buy his shit and support his megalomania.
Are you masochists???
They still have that damn picture of the C word up. All those people who have commented saying how cool it is, and in some cases even using the C word themselves make me sick. The site is owned by Warnerbros Records and at the bottom of the main page of the MCR website under Terms of Service they have the Rules of Conduct listed. This is what it says;
Rules of Conduct.
While using the Site you will comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. In addition, we expect users of the Site to respect the rights and dignity of others. Your use of the Site is conditioned on your compliance with the following rules of conduct. You will not:

Surely a picture of the of the C-word is obscene and indecent and is therefore breaking their own rules of conduct. I’m trying to find someone at Warner to e-mail about it now. Lets get it taken down.
Yes, do that, anon! And if you find an e-mail address would you kindly post it here so that I and probably others can write them too?
The only reason he got a comic book deal and so much media attention around it was because he was in MCR.
Agreed.
The publishing company isn't really about talent or originality. It's just about what will sell. That's not to say that Gerard hasn't got writing talent or drawing talent, because he's a decent artist and I'm sure his writing's good once it's polished up.
Originality, though? Let's see. A bunch of mutant orphaned kids with super powers get raised by some mysterious rich father figure and then they have world-saving adventures and misadventures.
Ummm, yeah, where have I heard of a plot like that before? Oh, I know. Everywhere.
I guarantee you that if anyone else had approached Dark Horse with that proposal they would have received a very curt rejection letter.
Umbrella Academy got signed because they already knew that MCR fans shell out lots of dough. This is a known fact and Dark Horse is a business, and businesses want money.
