Recently we've had some trouble with a troll from a certain other blog, and people have been asking me to disable anon comments or install a tracker. I haven't even had a tracker or disabled anons. Anons are an important part of this blog because not everyone wants to use a name. And I try to respect everyone's privacy so I really don't want to use a tracker.
I think we need to ignore trolls from that blog. We have faced worse trolls before, from BN and other places such as that. Places like that are mostly the same, BN, 4Chan, that other blog, and they churn out mostly the same kind of people. When you ignore them they go away.
The "I think you're bothering someone I know" ploy is lame and probably false. If their blog is having a problem, then it's not our fault or our problem. That place has always been a train-wreck, all of a sudden someone wants to blame it on the folks here.
"I WILL DISRUPT YOU!!!!!1111111111trolltroll"
OH NO! Disrupt us, really? You're going to come in here and say mean things to people? Oh no please don't, whatever will we do.
Ignore it and it will go away. And if it doesn't go away - ignore it anyway. :)
We've had worse trolls than this one so hang in there guys. :)

«Oldest ‹Older 1601 – 1697 of 1697Umbrella wasn't the only song he sang for Lynz. World is Ugly and Safe and Sound were all about her too.
Honestly the man can write songs for the wife from now til hell freezes over if he likes. I don't care. All I know is that he hasn't written a decent one since Lindsey came along. It's too bad, but MCR as we used to know it is over.
Didn't he always say he wrote only about the things he has something to say about? Now it seems he only wants to talk about Lindsey.
It's too bad, but MCR as we used to know it is over.
Maybe he will form his own band with Lynz.
so i flipped through one my old AP Magazines last night and read their review for the Black Parade, and track number four was called A Kiss Before She Goes... not The Sharpest Lives...
i hear voluptitty and anothergay have re-located their own special brand of madness and are trying to poach buzznet people to a new site called buzznet exiles. i guess things have been dead on buzznet since those two left.
anyone here a member of exiles?
link please

What are you implying, happy?
i don't think im implying anything i just notioced that they changed it.. and that got me thinking about whether or not it was about ELiza instead of Bert.. and to make a last second change like that is rather hard, thats not the only place i noticed that change it was in AMP magazine too.
I think most of TBP was about Gerard's relationship with Eliza. I think parts of it address the guilt he felt about cheating on Kat and the subsequent breakup. I think that's why he doesn't like the record anymore.
that would be a good reason 5.08

I really don't think so.
I think it has more to do with the marching band uniforms. I don't think he wants to be constantly reminded of how they appeared.
And it's not about Lindsey.
Interesting theory 5:08 :) I'd like to discuss it further, seems to be the only real thing worth talking about to have popped up this week! What songs/lyrics give you that impression?
There are a lot of reasons why I believe this, 2:51, not the least of which were several things that Gerard said during interviews around the time TBP was released.
He talked about how painful making the album was, about how it was like (paraphrased) "cutting off his eyelids and staring directly into the sun". He also said that in writing that record that he discovered some painful things about himself; he discovered that he wasn't a "good person".
He also went on to talk about the breakup of his relationship with Kat and how he had to fly back to New York in the middle of recording TBP to break up with her.
If you look at the lyrics of Famous Last Words, I believe that it kind of chronicles his breakup with Kat. The "where's your heart" in the beginning seems like Kat's question to him when he told her about needing to end things. The "I'm so weak" probably refers to the cheating with Eliza. "Honey if you stay I'll be forgiven" I think is him saying that he doesn't deserve to be forgiven (especially given the fact that Eliza was in LA with him when he was recording TBP).
There are other lyrics from other songs, but this is the one I think that illustrates where Gerard was at the time the most clearly.
Also, there was that MySpace entry that Eliza made about how the songs we were listening to were about her life.
I don't think Gerard intended to be with Eliza permanently. I just think she was there, she was available and she was convenient and that Gerard was "weak". But, I think that when he finally did ditch Eliza (he broke up with her briefly between Halloween and New Year), the reality of being alone scared the hell out him.
The rumors of him trying to get back with Kat that Christmas ring very true to me because of things he said in interviews during that time. When asked about how he was going to spend his holidays he answered that all he wanted to do was to go stay with his "best friend", pick out a tree and decorate it together - and he said that like it was something that he had done with this person before. The overall tone of his comment was very melancholy and it honestly did not sound to me like he was talking about some dude he went to art school with, but maybe a lost love.
Yes, I realize that it sounds like I was way too invested in Gerard back then, and I admit that I was, but then so were a lot of other people from a certain comm on LJ (now virtually defunct). We were all long time fans, most of whom had met Gerard several times and seen the changes he went through from Bullets to TBP and we were worried about him. We came up with this theory over a period of time and had a lot of articles and quotes and things to back it all up.
At this point, I don't really care all that much anymore. I'm not an MCR fan now, but it's still kind of interesting to me to go back and read the conversations I had with other fans at the time and the theory we came up with. I thought you guys might be interested too.
Are you still worried about Gerard 5:08?
Are you still worried about Gerard 5:08?
Eh, not so much.
It's not that I don't think he's messed up mentally and emotionally, because I still do. It's just that I don't really like MCR anymore. I've outgrown them. Besides, I think Gerard was right: he's not a good person. He's a douchebag of epic proportions and so if Frank.
I've got better things to do with my time than worry about some pretentious dumbass in a rock band. That time of my life is over, thank God.
*so is Frank

FLW is definitely a song about Mikey, even down to the lines "i see you lying next to me, with words I thought i'd never speak" - this refers to how Mikey used to sleep in G's room at the Paramour. And the words he thought he'd never speak was that he was letting Mikey leave the band. Thats why the lyrics said "I'm incomplete" - a reference Gerard has made many times about the period without Mikey in the band. Mikey said when he heard the finished version of that song it made him change his mind about leaving and he settled on a 'vacation' instead.
I could tell you more, including how Eliza fits into all of it, but meh, s'probably well boring to all of you.
Oh God. That Mikey crap sounds like some shit that Gerard would make up. Did he say that in an interview?
I don't believe any of it.
Sounds like the plot of a Waycest fanfic. D:
i do remember reading an interview where that was mentioned. it was part of some gigantic mcr feature in a magazine i believe. prolly kerrang.
You stole the words right out of my mouth, 4:18.
It is an interesting theory 9:18 even more so considering this "Kat" person probably never existed.
F
I think FLW was def about Mikey and for Mikey. After playing that song at the show I was at (way back in 2007) Gerard gave Mikey the biggest hug and it looked from where I was (barrier) that the song meant something to both of them. Mikey wiped his eye, he may have been getting emotional, he may have just had dirt in his eye. But, yeah, that song was for Mikey not Eliza IMHO.
This blog is dead. It's pretty sad when even the haters don't seem to care anymore.
good to know 11.06
your so right 10:50
both of them have practically said it at different times, FLW was about Mikey and what they went thru(at Paramour).
Lol. And we all know that they always tell the truth. Both of them.
well its not like anything has really happened with the band recently to talk about. the way things are going it might be quite a while until something does happen. if at all.
Gerard is going to be at this year's Comic Con. Which is weird, considering that he hasn't had a comic out in quite a while. I haven't heard any news on the new comic at all.
Whatever happened to his movie? Is that as dead in the water as the video he was going to direct for Mama?
It's like he's on Power-down mode or something.
can't forget Frankenweenie tweeting to some basketball player about free ticks for life if he switched teams..... like thats gonna happen
i saw that. it was rather sad, regardless if he was serious or not.

What of it?
its scans of interviews they've done 2002... should we wish to look for something
Does it really matter what they've said in previous interviews? I mean it's mainly crap that goes along with selling an album or tour.
or even if they did mean it they have certainly deserted it nowadays. the past really doesn't matter at this point.
We know they have abandoned what they said previously. That's what this blog is all about. Many of us think they lied about what they said they believed in all along. So the past is meaningful to a certain extent as it reminds you of their dishonesty.

It's really a new low when you have to literally go out of your way to find things to "point and laugh" about. And you don't care about this band? You do more research than fans.

I don't think it is so low since there has been no new news. It's really low however for you to point fingers, since you are obviously here for the same reason.It must be really slow on the fansites!
You do more research than fans
If MCR fans were smart they wouldn't except their bs as gospel.
What do you expect. Dense band, dense wives, dense fans.
You feel better after your little rant about the injustices to your babies 9:00? Good.
it's like sooo like f**kin' romantic like
Well, in my mind 3:54 that clip just PROVES they are a perfect match.
Oh and nice selection of pictures added for humorous enhancement. I mean who can forget his territorial boob groping of his wife.

I kinda think you posted that link to try to bait people. When no one bit, you posted this comment.
LOL, doofus.
"It was never about the fans. It was always about him."
which wouldnt be that bad but he had to go on and on about how much fans mean to him and that he's just like them and blagh blagh blaaaaagh
I don't understand your logic, 9:04. How can you say being a fan of MCR 'dumbs you down', when it was an anon 'fan' that highlighted that you, as a non-fan, had made a spelling mistake?
Unless you meant that you are an ex-fan, and they 'dumbed you down' when you used to be a fan? No, that wouldn't make sense because the anon fan didn't suffer the same affliction. And, that would mean you were blaming a rock band you no longer like for your lack of spelling ability? Surely not.
“Hey listen up! all you racists, sexists, homophobes and just plain assholes, we’ve got a message for you… GO HOME! We dont want you here, dont buy our merch, and dont listen to our music. If you have our CD break it. we dont want you and we dont need you here”

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. i iz all stoopidz cuz of MCR.
I'm sure you never, ever made a spelling mistake now, did you, 8:46?
Nit-picking much? But then, that's usually what people resort to when they have nothing else to contribute.

That's exactly what I thought too. I personally am done reading the idiotic things Gerard and Co. have said in articles. He contradicts himself all of the time so they don't really mean anything.
5:44, if MCR = stupid, MSI = lobotomy?

They could have been copying The Doctor's sidekick.
The only "Doctor's sidekick" we've ever had here couldn't type two words without misspelling one of them.

Good name for a Blog.

Sure, everyone makes typo's but this wasn't a typo, it was the incorrect use of a homophone.
'Except'is very rarely used as a verb and is primarily used in sentence structure as a preposition or a conjunction.
10:05's use of the word 'except' in the wrong context, implies poor grammatical knowledge and a total lack of understanding of the definition of the word.
As for nit-picking; it probably wouldn't even have been pointed out if the incorrect word had not occurred in a sentence decrying the intelligence of MCR fans.
If MCR fans were smart they wouldn't except their bs as gospel.
If you are going to make inflammatory generalizations about the intellegence of a collective body of people, it's probably not a good idea to highlight your own ignorance and stupidity in the process.

Um, you were saying...
Maybe that particular poster wasn't intellegent . Good pickup anon.
*sniggers*
...back to the normal broadcasting channel...
MCR fans are deeense.
^_^

Everybody makes typo's what?
Lol.
Not to be nitpicky or anything, but there is no apostrophe in the word typos, unless you're making it possessive.
If you're going to make a post chiding people about their ignorance, it's probably not a great idea to be showing your own.
Just sayin'.

Is that proper grammar? I don't think it is. In fact, I'm certain it's not.

I'm just saying and using proper grammar to say it.
Not to be nitpicky or anything.
Were you trying to be showing everyone what an intelligent girl you are 8:05?
You failed.
Just sayin'.
This is ridiculous. I see the point you were trying to make, but but phrasing it as 'trying to be showing' isn't grammatically correct either. Everyone needs to stop being petty, we're all human, we all make mistakes. In the grand scheme of things, is it really that big a deal?
Is that proper grammar? I don't think it is. In fact, I'm certain it's not.
How is that not proper? Show me what rule the usage of the word "showing" broke.
I don't see that it was improper either. I've been sitting here trying to figure out just what the hell 11:56 was talking about.
What were you talking about 11:56?
Grammar trolls. Ignore them.
They can't argue with us about what douchebags their heroes have shown themselves to be so they'll deflect with idiotic comments about typos and nonexistent grammar errors.
Lol, I think 2:18 was trying to show us what an intellegent girl she is, but she failed with her MY THESAURUS: LET ME SHOW YOU IT comment which was riddled with grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.
Didn't Kasu always make that apostrophe mistake? Seems like she was always confusing plurals with possessives.
She's a rather persistent little troll. I'll give her that.
You know what, guys?
This is the fucking internet. Not a college term paper.
Chill the fuck out.
How is that not proper? Show me what rule the usage of the word "showing" broke.

The problem is usage of the word be.
To be showing is perfectly correct.
Show me the rule that says otherwise.
it's probably not a great idea to be showing your own.
tsk tsk
You should never be showing, be thinking, be doing, be trying, be saying anything.
When prefaced by the word "to" you can use the term be with nearly anything, you idiot.
I be thinking you need to go back to school before you be trying to school others on what you call their ignorance.
When prefaced by the word "to" you can use the term be with nearly anything, you idiot.
tsk tsk
The same goes with "should" or "should not".
You should not be going out after dark. You should not be showing your ass in those pants.
You should not be showing your ignorance in these comments.
Tsk, tsk anon is showing her ass. She should not be doing that.
Let her. She's only making an ass of herself.
DO NOT FEED THE TROLL.
True. She shouldn't be showing her ass. But it's all she's got since none of her other arguments hold any water. You know, the ones about how Gerard is really a swell guy at heart? He's just misunderstood, off the right track, in a bad place, blah, blah.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
You think this place is sleep inducing, go look at MCR fansites.
Sheesh, someone sure has hard-ons for correct use of grammar.
Sheesh, someone sure has hard-ons for correct use of grammar.
What's really hilarious is that said person doesn't even know correct grammar when she sees it.
Example:
Looks like MCR is going to be recording this new album from now until the end of time...
*waits for moron to come here and tell me I've incorrectly used the word "be"*
Maybe English is not her first language?
