THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR

From his blog, "THE WARRIOR'S MACHETE".
"My name is Warrior. I live by a warrior philosophy of life conceived by unique physical life experiences, serious introspection, and many years of enlightened self-study. My Creator endowed me with naturally high testosterone levels, unusual self-discipline, stalwart refusal to compromise right with wrong, and a very low tolerance for hypocrites, liars, enablers, piecemeal practice of principle, emasculated males, political-correctness, and oppressive, anti-freedom caca that doesn’t work in the private backyard of my own individual life. I am a “Being” Created with the ability to judge, so I do. I am a male also inspired by men who have held greater ideals and have done much greater things than any of us who are living today."
"Without apology, regret or remorse, Warrior’s Machete provides lean, muscular wisdom without fat or wiggle(room) and holds ALL human beings and their ideas and their actions to a classical, times-past standard of heroism, responsibility, integrity and commonsense, and brave, bold, stout manliness." MAKES YOU WANT TO READ IT YEAH?

Not your mothers button collection

When i was a lad, EPHEMERA BUTTONS were the coolest things around. I had tons of them, they actually had phrases that matched my degree & style of weirdness. Years later, i'm making buttons, even expanding into the "weird sayings" department...

Summer Slam 92-Ultimate Warrior Vs. Macho Man Randy Savage Match Part 1

Style Icons TO THE MAX!!!

DENIM TRENCH COATS.

Pedro Bell on Chica-Go-Go. "Operational Crazoid From Day One." Notice Pedro Bell's denim trench coat, which is part of the EXTREME 2010 FASHION PREDICTION!!!!! There was this older bi-sexual P-Funked out black dude in my screen printing class at Laney College years ago who was also rocking a denim trench-coat, hand painted all that. The trench-coat gets a bad rap because it is worn by alot of kids who want to hide from the outside world, in the trench-coat, but at the same time, they end up standing out. I will now admit to having worn a BRIGHT PURPLE TRENCH COAT for most of my freshman year of highschool. This was not to disappear, i just loved that shit, this is before i realized that i have the same birthday as PRINCE. I also had a MULLET WITH LINES at the same time as this. EXTREME!!!

You know who also rocks the denim trench coat? THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR. I can't find a good clip of it right now, but... Here is Arsenio Hall meeting the Ultimate Warrior. EXTREEEEEMEME!!!!

DIE ANTWOORD EXTREME 2010

Die Antwoord is cracking open the EXTREME 2010 unlike anything else. Pretty much all it needs is to have some kind of Black Metal breakdown in the middle & it would be perfect. I could see the kids here in Eugene, not the cool kids but the general American populace making stuff like this or whatever, anything similar. Brilliant. Amazing. Record out this month.


Die Antwooord seems like the kind of music my characters would make or listen to.
