    To quote the lyrics of Amphetamine Janitor by an old band of mine, Gouge, not written by me but by our guitarist who was working as a janitor and doing a lot of speed:

    Why don’t you know how to shit?

    It’s one of the first things they teach you

    You are a bastard man

    The floor isnt a toilet

    You work in an office

    I clean your shit cause you dont know how to shit

    You have a salary

    I make hourly

    And you dont know how to shit

    Our live recording is pretty funny. It was at a fundraiser for the community college’s music program and it was a metal showcase thing. It was like, tech death and powe metal. We did a 5 minute noise grind set and had the guys you can hear yelling straight up fighting each other as a form of moshing, those dudes were punching each other and enjoying the process which made the entire crowd super uncomfortable. I also said at the end of the set that ‘paying for a community college music course is a waste of money, learn a trade or sell drugs to other students. Only nerds have music teachers.’ And then we left. All the other bands had big hour long sets. It was really funny.

    I know an amazing drummer now and am still pals with the guitarist. Gouge 2.0 has always been on the backburner

    Giving a relisten, we were maybe the most brutal band ever. We had a rule about no breakdowns and no tech stuff. 'Caveman Slams nerds cant grind

      I worked at [place with people that are experts in their fields, decades in their careers, esteemed, making nosebleed paychecks] and they still found ways to shit up a cubicle wall. People in armani suits are using gallons of cologne to mask the smell of their swamp ass

    i straight up don’t get picking and flicking in a cubicle - there’s a toilet bowl and a fucking roll of paper right there

    if you’re gonna sit there and stick your fingers in your nose, just fucking eat it, you’re already being a weirdo

    You know, I reckon men wouldn’t do half of these types of things if they ever had to clean something afterwards.

    Feels like there’s a metaphor, allegory or just plain old fact, somewhere in that.

    if you’re pissing on your hand you’re doing it wrong

    if you can’t aim with one hand and pick with the other you’re doing it wrong

    if you don’t wash your hands before handling your junk, you’re doing it wrong

        People that flush without the lid down need re- education. The stsff bathroom at my work doesnt have a lid and the door to it has a huge gap at the top. Its right by the dish pit, im surprised that passes health inspection.

          This is one of my major gripes 100000% too. Like, if people use my toilet at my place and then flush with the lid open that’s ALL of my bathroom stuff coated in poo particles, if I know someone’s going to use the loo, I’ll preemptively put my toothbrush and moisturiser etc. in a cupboard

            I’m a crust punk slowly getting it together and I have my limits. Im certainly not someone with a high standard for cleanliness but for how simple it is to just put the lid down. Do it. Plus as a penis haver, if you live with women you score automatic better than most dude points by not leaving the seat up like a 90s comedian. Dont be gross, close the lid to the shit and piss container when youre done.
