Kid Rock's Fur Coat

[samir]

He should write a song about it, that's what his spiritual precursor John Lee Hooker would do.

as long as it samples freebird, i'll be delighted.
which one is delighted again?

I don't think anyone is dissing John Lee.  Kid Rock just mentioned him during his Storytellers in a way that was ridiculously offensive (although I don't doubt that he was being 100% sincere in his dumbass, misguided way).

This is a faux fur coat that achieves the same effect and is a lot more affordable.  I wonder if Kid Rock has stopped doing blow long enough to consider this alternative?

A friend of mine was once yelled at by a stranger in Vancouver for wearing a mink stole. She reasoned that since it was from a vintage shop she was doing no harm; I told her this is why I buy all of my child porn used. She didn't speak to me for a while.

Wow ... Your disregard for the line that marks off the Bad Taste Zone makes me jealous.

You know I get the argument
I have no fur clothes I couldn't afford them nor would I want any if I could.

But its hard to take that stance and not be a hypocrite if u are still eating meat/dairy and wearing leather.
I won't take it to the silly level and say silk, insulin etc.

Yeah, I see the joke as the weird juxtaposition, like John Lee Hooker is a plate of the best barbecue ever, and Kid Rock is a microwave cheesesteak with a partially extinguished cigarette on the plate.  They don't go together and stuff.

You cannot convince me that Kid Rock is not a Jon Wurster character. I simply refuse to believe.

I have to admit that the only reason the conversation sticks with me years later is that I'm sightly ashamed to have crossed that line. Posting it here was kind of like going to confession.

Leather and beef both come from the same animal.  When's the last time you ate a mink?

What's the distinction
the eating?

Whether the animals are being processed for food or clothes or industrial processes
they are still being killed. I'm not sure but the minks and such might actually lead better lives because there isn't the huge industrial industry built up around them like there is for cattle and fowl.

The distinction is that the animal is already  food, so why not wear the rest of it?

I think the important distinction is I know nobody who thinks that mink is delicious. Or that Kid Rock is a useful and productive member of society.

Is he in the Hate Pit? I think that'd be a good place for him.

I would watch "Kid Roc" though.

Kid Roc with a tiny gruff but lovable kid version of Charles S. Dutton would be great.
