John Winston Ono Lennon, 10/9/40 - 12/8/80. R.I.P.

[Yuri-G]

There, now the legend has his own thread.

R.I.P. man. Definitely a fascinating and complex man, with the heart of a peacenik and the brain of a cynical genius. Oh and he wrote some good fucking music too.

[archibaldcrane]

Yeah, um

no. 29th-year anniversary death threads are retarded.

Also, the Beatles are overrated. Important? Absolutely. Great? Yeah they had a couple decent albums, but they made a lot of garbage too.

What John Lennon did politically and made statements for was separate from the Beatles, fuck, the OP didn't even mention the Beatles. Who the fuck shit on your honey bunches of oats?

[Yuri-G]

sure The Beatles were overrated, but John Lennon's legacy goes far beyond the music. although I still maintain that Imagine is one of the best songs of all-time.

and I think it's retarded to shit on the memory of somebody who touched the lives of millions, for the better. it's cool if this isn't your thing but I don't see the point of making that post. pretty harsh, I'd expect that shit from a troll, but not you man.

[Priran]

good night sweet prince

John Lennon trolled the US government pretty fucking hard too, we haven't had non-violent anti-war activists of his and Abby Hoffmans calibre that trolled the US Government to the presidential level that hard ever since then.

He's a pretty fucking important figure in US history.

[Mojo]

Eh, gonna have to agree somewhat with the second post. His music was decent (I don't like it myself, but will acknowledge that it's respectable,) but I wouldn't go so far as to say that he has some sort of legacy other than being a musician.

[Yuri-G]

agreed, it's been a long time since someone so nonviolent and nonthreatening got the attention of federal officials all the way up to and including the presidency. Richard Nixon personally ordered him to be investigated by the FBI for no other reason than being a peacenik. that's pretty sweet if you think about it.

I hope you're happy for your the thread you made because you were butthurt about the equally obnoxious Dimebag Daryl thread.

Congrats.

[Chun Liroy]

STILL NO PEARL HARBOR THREAD RAGEEEEEE. LATE IS BETTER THAN... this shit.

[zoobernut]

What? That sentence didn't make sense. Unless I am reading it wrong. (Archi's post)

Also why make a thread today rather than next year on the 30th anniversary?

You're reading it wrong.

Because he's butthurt about the Dimebag thread.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

It's not a real GD thread until someone from GD bitches about it being a GD thread.

[xopher]

John Lennon is over-fucking-rated along with the rest of the beatles.

[zoobernut]

Everyone is over-fucking-rated along with the rest of Everyone.

Fixed for you. Whining about something being overrated is just retarded.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

Fixed for you. Whining about something being overrated is just retarded.

Also he's bitching about overrated when he has circa 2005 FFXI accomplishments in his sig. HILARIOUS

[Rhyis.]

In the words of Eddie Murphey, what has he done for me lately?

[archibaldcrane]

John Lennon human defense shield:

ACTIVATE!

[Acturus]

Who?

I keed, I keed!

Isn't he the guy from Pantera?

[xopher]

Making appreciation threads is just retarded.

fixed for you
