Scraping Bottom
Shit adds up at the bottom
TOOL - "Bottom" - Undertow - 1993
Of all the lunacy outlined on this site, which, I remind, is FAR from a comprehensive account, it's challenging to finger a brown ribbon winner in such an avalanche of shit. What act unleashed by The Flozberks in this dark odyssey has most offended me?
Mutchie's tombstone stands way tall because it was just so very crass and enduring. So does that disgrace with her dog. That drugging of Dad thing doesn't rack up a lot of charm points with me. Calling both Dad and I thieves could have been done without. Their behavior at the end of Dad's life was a veritable baklava of layers of appallment.
However, in my book, the winner is their courting, then dumping of Jax and Tony. What they did to that little boy, already wrestling with issues related to female abandonment by his troubled mother, was below unconscionable. There was no conflict and no rancor - they failed to "score" in their wholly unfounded attempt to get Tony to shun me, then flicked him and little Jax away like roaches when they didn't get their way.
And, we have at least three offenders. Yes, that counts. Any one of the three could (and should) have growled:
Hey, fuck you other two loathsome scumbag assholes, I'm gonna call the kid, bestow earnest well-wishes, and send him a $20 Amazon gift card. He didn't do nothin' wrong. Why treat him so disgracefully shabbily?
Instead, they acted in unison. To go from throwing him a big birthday party to casting him aside with nary a peep forever beyond is so perfectly Flozberk. Where's my barf bag?
They deserve to be flogged in the town square until flesh flies and bone glistens. Do I hope such a thing happens to them? Of course not, but still...they deserve it. Fucking lowlifes.
Should things in our dispute be forced to further escalation, The Jax Disgrace will inspire some extra shakes of hot sauce on their shit sammiches, again and again, for years. We're gonna go Carolina reaper on this one.
Consider yourselves warned, disgusting pigs.
