zero magazine employs idiots.
Nov. 22nd, 2005 03:28 amThe winner of today's "research, asshat!" award is Zero magazine for their October 2005 issue. [see, import, so hence the delay in my grubby paws picking it up] I'm not sure if there are other really amusing errors, and I imagine that there might be, but they show that you can make fools of yourself very early in your magazine's life. Oh, yes.
See, there's an interview/article on My Chemical Romance specifically Bob, the drummer. Bob the drummer who isn't pictured on the CDs cuz he's a relatively new addition to the band, replacing drummer #1, Matt. Much of the article waxes poetic about the change over, and there are some pictures of the band from the Matt era. Upon closer inspection I realized there wasn't even a solo one of Bob. So I looked at the pictures trying to find the one that identifies the members of the band, wondering if someone forgot to, I dunno, look up who they were talking about. Sure enough, second page of the article, there's another group photo and Matt is misidentified as Bob, and about this time I snorted some Pepsi in a very unladylike fashion.
Guys. Pick up a copy of one of the CDs. I know for a fact Three Cheers tells you the pissed off dude? That'd be Matt. Bob? He'd be the other guy in all the videos. If that's too much work, use the magical internet and randomly find a MCR site. Bingo. Bob.
G'ah. Brother and his girlfriend are going at it again. God, if you're there, much as I miss the widget, I do not need another one to 'replace' him until his crazy ass mother comes 'round. If the boy and this girl breed, there will be a sucking void where the brain should be. I can't take that.
... damn it, now I miss Widget.
