Oh, You’re an As I Lay Dying Fan? Name Three Anabolic Steroids

Posted on by S.L. Neechski

Hey, you with the As I Lay Dying t-shirt with the sleeves cut off and swelled-up ankles. You’re a metalcore fan, huh? Well, true fans of AILD know their best songs are the ones with only Tim screaming, like “94 Hours” and “Bury Us All.” That clean vocal shit is for pussies, bruh! Real metal doesn’t have singing! You can’t ego-lift and performatively grunt at the gym with some cringe melody in your ear.

Anyhow, if you’re such a fan of AILD, then name three anabolic steroids. Go ahead. I’ll wait while you go to the bathroom to find an injection site in your ass cheek. No judgment, by the way. Look, I get what it’s like to suffer from the horrors of muscle dysmorphia. Horrors like looking at your reflection in the mirror and seeing oily, acne-riddled skin and wondering if it’s all worth it. It is, and you know that because your disturbingly vascular arms in that cut-off shirt scream, “Yes!” every time.

So, how about naming those three anabolic steroids for me while I flex for ya.

Testosterone enanthate? I guess that’s technically a steroid, but you’ll never get swole as fuck using that alone. If you’re not taking real gear, how are you gonna change into a perpetually abusive roid-rage psycho that flips tables and punches walls at the slightest inconvenience?

Dianabol? Hmm. You know D-Bol is an oral steroid, right? If you don’t use a needle for your gear, it’s soyboy shit, bruh! There’s no danger of stabbing yourself with D-Bol. Part of the appeal of roids is struggling to steady your shaky hand while you try to shoot up. If you’re lookin’ to damage your liver orally, alcohol abuse is a cheaper and easier option, anyway.

Testosterone cypionate? Now there we go. It’s only for men, so ya know that’s the true shit. Only a real man would risk the chance of having a blood-clotting issue just to get his pump on to hit that PR. Real lifters — real men — risk their lives over important stuff like getting peeled and ripped. Getting mirin’ from other serious lifters is all that matters, brosef.

Hey, since we’re talking steroids, do ya got any of those single-use syringes left?

Anteaters Have Other Interests, Not That You Give a Shit

Posted on by Samuel Abraham

SAN DIEGO — Conclusive findings emerging from multiple long-term observational studies have shed new light on the habits of anteaters, showing that they actually have a vast array of other interests and peculiarities, not that any of you give a shit.

“Yeah, I mean, they just call us ‘anteaters,’ so what do you expect? People develop an expectation of your role and hate to see anything that differs from that expectation,” began an anteater at the San Diego Zoo. “None of these slack-jawed assholes that stare at me all day could be compelled to acknowledge that I’ve been developing my knowledge of diasporic literature, I have a bit of a stamp collection going, I find shiny lights fascinating, I still miss my childhood best friends and hate that we fell out of touch, and I also eat things other than ants, too. Not that anyone fucking cares.”  

Patrons of the zoo were quick to confirm the anteater’s suspicions about the public not giving a country-fried fuck about any of the newly discovered idiosyncrasies.

“Look, dude, I don’t care if they learned to type Shakespeare, I’m just here to see some fucking anteaters eatin’ some fucking ants,” zoo attendee Zack Branfield remarked. “I wanna see the thing I came to see do the thing it does. You think I give a fuck if a woodpecker does anything other than peck wood? You think I wanna see a flying fish swimming? Grow up.”

Natural historian Greta Stanwick was quick to support the recent studies and anteaters as a whole in spite of nobody giving two shits from a rat’s ass about anything that she or really any living thing had to say on the matter.

“I immediately encouraged zoos to plaster their display walls with these astonishing new findings, but they didn’t seem to care, either,” said a resigned Stanwick. “Unfortunately, even despite a mountain of exciting new evidence with implications that could completely upend our understanding of the natural world and the vivid lives of all creatures within it, people really just don’t give a single flying fuck in the night sky about any of this. God damn, I can only imagine how the poor dung beetle feels.”

At press time, the anteater pointed out that he preferred to just be called Gary to avoid being pigeonholed.

Early Signs Indicate Child Not a Badass

Posted on by John Danek

BUTLER, Pa. — All early signs are revealing that new human being Emery Lloyd is not a badass in any capacity, his disappointed family reported.

“It’s brutal to watch- he freezes and cries at the top of slides no matter how small they are,” admitted Emery’s disappointed father Marcello Lloyd, who is considered by many to be a badass due to his impressive motorcycle collection and aptitude for skydiving. “Yesterday, things took a turn for the worse when Emery hid behind the couch from his sister Bella’s Lego Bowser. I can’t have a kid afraid of his own shadow crying to ‘The Lion King’ in school in front of his classmates. I gotta teach him to laugh at Mufasa’s death just like I did.”

Emery’s mother Bianca Lloyd confessed that her original plans to raise their children in an open, emotionally vulnerable environment is being challenged.

“I want to raise my kids exactly the opposite of how my cruel Boomer parents raised me, but Jesus Christ kid- you gotta give me something to work with here,” said the frustrated mother of three, who recently had to pick Emery up from daycare when another child’s sneeze frightened him awake from a nap. “I read up on all the new progressive, modern methods of child-rearing like encouraging your children to feel their feelings. But at a certain point, the crying is so pathetic as to become annoying. So recently I’ve fallen on my parents’ methods of telling him a scary clown will move in under his bed if he doesn’t shut up. It unfortunately works.”

Childhood psychologists are actively researching methods and tweaking recommendations for raising a namby-pamby, weakling of a child.

“It’s a topic we don’t commonly discuss, but some kids are just pitiable wimps, and that presents unique challenges to parents,” said Dr. Minerva Reza, founder of Pittsburgh’s Child Psych Institute. “While we think that the wimp trait is genetic, it can often be mitigated with training, such as frequent exposure to horror movies and sleepovers at the bad kid’s house down the street. While child wimps sometimes grow out of it, they often grow up to become bootlicking Republicans or people who call 911 on the homeless.”

As of press time, Emery’s parents have begrudgingly confirmed that the child has finally spoken his first word: “scared.”

Fan of Streamer Ready To Take Parasocial Relationship To Next Level

Posted on by Tim Graham

HOLDEN, Mass. — A local fan of popular online personality SpaghettiBurger says she’s prepared to advance her fandom to a more serious level, sources confirm.

“I’m SpaghettiBurger’s biggest fan,” stated Rebecca Flynn, covered head-to-toe in SpaghettiBurger swag. “I watch him for hours every day. I go to sleep with his voice in my earbuds. Obviously, I’m just one of his millions of followers, but I really think he and I would have something special if we were to meet. Sometimes I swear he winks after he reads one of my comments, and I’m pretty sure it’s a signal just for me saying, ‘You’re not like these other slobs in chat, you’re special.’”

Flynn’s mother says while she is a bit concerned over her daughter’s preoccupation with the entertainer, she also knows what it’s like to have a fixation on a celebrity.

“Young women have always developed crushes on celebrities. I had it pretty bad for Joey Fatone from NSYNC when I was younger,” mused Janet Flynn. “I covered my entire room with pictures of Joey that I tore out of teen magazines. This is embarrassing, but one time I actually found out what hotel NSYNC were staying at when they were on tour, and I managed to get into Joey’s room to wait for him. You should’ve seen his face when he came back to find me on his bed with a bottle of vodka and a pair of handcuffs!”

Mark Deitch, the man behind SpaghettiBurger, says he makes a very good living from his fans’ unhealthy attachment.

“I’m super grateful for my millions of fans, the vast majority of which are totally chill. They’re the reason I can afford this lifestyle,” said the streamer from his Malibu beachfront mansion. “Some of them do take it a little too far, though. I’ve cultivated a maniacally dedicated fanbase by appearing to be relatable and approachable, but that doesn’t mean I actually want to be approached. I had to bring on a full-time security team to keep the real nutters away. Just last week they caught a young woman dressed in a full ghillie suit creeping through my topiary garden.”

At press time, Flynn had purchased tickets for a meet and greet with SpaghettiBurger at the next TwitchCon, with plans to surreptitiously clip a lock of his hair to use in a love spell she saw on Reddit.

Fox News Reports the Strait of Hormuz Is Blocked by Trans Swimmers

Posted on by Steve Packosky

NEW YORK — American multinational conservative news channel Fox News has reported that the Strait of Hormuz, the oil trading artery linking the Persian Gulf with the Arabian Sea, which has become increasingly volatile since America’s attack on Iran, is actually blocked because of thousands of trans swimmers, sources report.

“This is yet another attack on our American values by the Radical Left,” presenter Laura Ingraham said on her popular program The Ingraham Angle. “It apparently wasn’t enough for trans swimmers to enter competitions with the sole purpose of stealing medals rightfully earned by heroes like Riley Gaines, but they now have to travel halfway around the globe and disrupt the entire world’s oil supply by swimming in the Strait of Hormuz. There’s obviously no low these people aren’t willing to sink, or in this case, swim to, to try and make President Trump look bad, and now we’re all going to be punished at the pump because of it.”

U.S. President Donald Trump echoed Ingraham’s sentiment in a Truth Social post shortly after her segment had aired.

“Wow! Laura Ingraham, a Great and Brilliant American, has just exposed the TRUTH regarding the Strait of Hormuz!!!” Trump posted. “Apparently, the WOKE and RADICAL policies of the Biden Administration (I called it the ‘Broken Administration!’) that America is still reeling from have resulted in trans swimmers going over there and blocking it, which has NOTHING TO DO with the OPERATION EPIC FURY that was a COMPLETE SUCCESS even though we have MUCH MORE WORK TO DO! Now more than ever, our NATO ‘Allies’ need to get involved to make sure we can get oil through, even though we no longer ‘need’ or ‘desire’ their assistance. WE NEVER DID!!!”

Fox News viewer Dave Irwin reacted to the story.

“I knew it was a big deal that the Strait of Hormuz was blocked, but it makes sense that it’s because of trans athletes,” Irwin noted. “There’s no way Trump would do anything stupid that would increase oil prices. He’s way too smart for that. Leave it to the Demon-crats to find yet another way to make us pay more for gas. I’m just glad we can rest easy knowing that our President definitely knows what he’s doing, and will easily figure out a way to fix the situation.”

At press time, Ingraham was speculating that all of the trans swimmers may also be illegal immigrants.

Oh, You’re A KoЯn Fan? Name Three Dah-Boom-Dah-Dah-MMM-Dum-Nah-Ee-Mah 

Posted on by S.L. Neechski

Hey, you with the white-kid dreads and those baggy JNCOs with a portable CD player in the giant back pocket. Is that a KoЯn t-shirt? You must really be a fan if you’re repping that band in 2026. Then again, the ’90s are back in style because what’s old is new again. Yay for cyclical fashion trends.

Speaking of the ’90s, you do know that nu metal is poser shit, right? I’m probably showing my age here, but think of it like an S.A.T. analogy: nu metal is to metal as Taco Bell is to food. To be clear: I do appreciate KoЯn’s music, but they aren’t metal. They’re catchy, they use bagpipes, they made songs with Ice Cube and Skrillex, and Jonathan Davis scats like a jazz singer. 

Since we’re on the topic, if you’re a fan of KoЯn, then name three of those dah-boom-dah-dah-mmm-dum-nah-ee-mah scats for me.

Ya-not-raht-daht-e-daht? You went for the obvious pick. The opening few seconds of their album “Life Is Peachy” is the most well-known scat after the one from “Freak On A Leash,” which we’ve already covered. It’s a valid choice, to be sure, but an easy one. That said, this one’s the best evidence in KoЯn’s catalog that Davis spits out more nonsense per syllable than a QAnon believer.

Sum-digga-digga-digum-duh-digum? Hmmm. Bold choice, given it’s from their most recent album, “Requiem.” Did you start with their newer stuff and work backwards? Most fans gave up on them years ago and probably didn’t make it past “The Serenity of Suffering.” Since you truly enjoy watching a dude dressed like a cartoon character sputter out nonsense, I gotta assume you spend a lotta time in Times Square.

Inguh-ema-hey-ah-ha-remadahboh-em-doh-rae-doh? Ah, pulling from a deep cut called “Tension” from the special edition of their dubstep record, “The Path of Totality.” Well played. It’s easily the most hyperactive scatting in the band’s whole discography because Davis is trying to out-obnoxious the wub-wubs and the sqwonks and the sqwelches. Those onomatopoeias sound like Dr. Seuss characters.

All this talk kinda makes me wanna play some KoЯn. Say, is that seven-string guitar in the corner tuned down to A, by chance?

Hardcore Band Preemptively Starts GoFundMe To Get Ahead of Inevitable Van Accident 

Posted on by Mike Maher

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Local hardcore outfit Prayer Grave started a preemptive GoFundMe to pay for the crippling debt they’ll one day incur from their inevitable van accident, sources close to the soon-to-be shit-out-of-luck band confirmed.

“Look, getting in a catastrophic van wreck is just part of paying your dues in the hardcore scene,” vocalist Donny Fagerbakke said. “Except we’re skipping the whole paying part and getting ahead of those dues with a proactive GoFundMe to ‘precoup’ our losses. We’ve already raised $40,000, which despite what the subreddits have claimed, was not spent on brand new gear or all the luxury hotels we’ve stayed at on tour.”

Longtime fan Jay Hamm didn’t hesitate to donate, but has some doubts. 

“Prayer Grave are my boys, yo! I’d do anything for them. Even play bass,” Hamm said. “So I wanna make sure they’re financially set up for that unavoidable day when their shitty van cartwheels over a jersey barrier into oncoming traffic. I gotta be straight though. Their goal of $5 million dollars seems a bit steep, even with America’s broke-ass healthcare system. But I ain’t judging. I’m still raising money for them through some cuck play on my girl’s OnlyFans. It supports the band and the top donor wins a gig as their full-time van driver! How fire is that?!”

Dr. Merv Willoughby, head physician at Upstate Trauma Center and author of New York Times bestseller “Get In The Van Accident,” supports the precautionary crowdfunding.

“I’ve seen it all,” Willoughby said. “Femoral arteries tourniqueted with unsold band shirts. Bass players impaled by a Gibson Flying V. Bones sticking out of tattoos like goddamn Pinhead. The only thing I haven’t seen? A band with insurance. They always say, ‘My crew’s all the coverage I need!’ No, you need to eat and shit through a tube for the rest of your life. Think your split 7” with Integrity will foot that bill? Since most hardcore bands are touring around in a repurposed handi-van on bald tires during an ice storm in the middle of Fucksville, USA with the village merch table idiot behind the wheel, Prayer Grave’s preemptive GoFundMe is a refreshingly smart move for a bunch of dumb kids who make stupid music.”  

At press time, Prayer Grave also started a second preemptive GoFundMe to offset Fagerbakke’s inevitable sexual harassment lawsuit fees.

Tesla Hides Drive Mode Behind Subscription Paywall

Posted on by S.L. Neechski

AUSTIN, Texas — Tesla CEO and impossibly moronic manchild Elon Musk announced this week that Tesla will begin locking the drive mode of its cars behind a monthly subscription, X-addicted sources confirmed.

“Because of the touchscreen controls of a Tesla, when you drive one you’re actually playing a video game, but in real life,” explained Musk, chopping up lines of Ketamine. “Thusfore, if game developers like Ubivision or Rockstar Blizzards use subscription models for simple stuff like gun and character skins, then it makes double-sense for Tesla. We’re a for-profit business, after all. They have games as a service, so we’re gonna have cars as a service. For as little as $8.99 per month, you can drive your very own Tesla that you’ve already purchased. For just three bucks more, you can even subscribe to your vehicle’s windshield wipers.”

Cybertruck owner and Tesla shareholder Dylan Wolcott defended the company’s decision to use a paywall.

“My boy Elon’s constantly innovating in the technology space because he’s a goddamn super-genius, bruh,” said Wolcott, sporting a Dogecoin t-shirt. “He’s turned a car into a cash register — cha-ching, motherfuckers! And monetizing driving, the defining characteristic of a car, guarantees every owner is gonna pay out the ass. I guess that includes me. Still, my Tesla shares are going to the fucking moon! My portfolio’s gonna get me laid hardcore.”

Industry analyst Ryan Bellning discussed the reasoning behind the paywall.

“I’m in no way surprised by this desperate ploy, given that Musk’s megalomania has done its best to, ahem, drive Tesla’s respectability into the ground,” observed Bellning. “Musk has the temperament and emotional intellect of a child, but even he’s realized his paycheck depends on share price. So, after Tesla locked self-driving behind a subscription, it was only a matter of time — or perhaps a matter of K-holes — before he did the same with regular driving to prop up the stock. I’m sure he sees himself as some arch supervillain, but he’s closer to that kid with an impulse-control problem from ‘Blank Check.’”

At press time, Musk also announced that Tesla will start a Grok-powered billing system for every use of the brakes.

Opinion: All Packaging Is Sustainable if You Eat It

Posted on by RJ Atkinson

So there I was, already late to my buddy’s house show because snipping all the plastic beer rings was taking forever. I thought to myself, “Hey, it’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta keep the turtles from playing with them.” But as my hand started to cramp up, I had another thought. Which was “There’s gotta be a better way. Also, I’m kinda hungry.”

I guess that’s two thoughts. Anyway, I combined these two seemingly disjointed notions into one really good idea. Maybe even the most important idea in history.

So without hesitation, I started devouring the beer rings. It was tough at first, but after a few minutes, I didn’t mind all the blood coming from my gums. Plus, I could mostly breathe while swallowing. I’d say the turtles could learn a few anti-suffocation techniques from me, but pretty soon they won’t need to. Because everyone will be eating their packaging too. 

Now, like all revolutionary ideas, the powers-that-be don’t care for mine. I learned this the hard way during a checkup, when my doctor said I needed to stop, and that he’s only ever had to extract cardboard from dogs before. Anyway, while he kept yammering on and on about internal bleeding, all I could think about was how Big Recycling had gotten to him. And that he was just a low-level bootlicker wrapped up in their criminal enterprise.

Now, I don’t know why the recycling barons are trying to silence me. But my working theory is that the entire operation is run by the mob, and their plan is to kill off 90% of all marine life. Thereby cornering the seafood market. That, or they’re all just jealous I thought of it first. 

In conclusion, I didn’t know it was possible to feel this proud or have this much blood in your stool. But hey, nobody said being a visionary was easy. And while the price of my gastroenterologist visits has plunged me hopelessly into medical debt, you can’t put a price on saving the environment. Anyway, I’m just glad scientists can stop spending all that money trying to develop plastic-eating bacteria and start using those funds to make aluminum taste better.
