I remember I'd go to Borders Bookstore with my grandma and look at Spin
Magazine and just
see pictures of y'all boys and be like, I just can't wait to get pussy one day.
These guys are the coolest.
So first question, have you ever gotten pussy before?
It's so embarrassing.
I just wanted to beat you.
No, no, no.
Oh, shit.
Wow.
Wow.
What's it like?
Look at this meticulous preparation.
Don't read it, dude.
It's embarrassing.
Damn.
You ever, um.
Like serial killer preparation.
Yeah.
I was like, his penis, 14 inches, six foot two.
Um, what's it like?
Okay, so what is that?
What are you reading?
Let's just excerpt from the other interview.
Ugh.
I don't care.
I didn't even know what it was.
Um.
I need a cigarette though.
This is a cool last year.
I remember when the band, like, first came out, there was like this legend
about boarding
school, like New York City, blue blood kind of lads.
But you know, you met them in New York, right?
Yeah.
Nikolai I was friends with since we were kids.
I think one, I got sent to boarding school when I was kind of like, the fuck up.
Where is it?
Switzerland?
Yeah.
Were there like war criminals kids at that school?
Probably.
I mean, I was, you know, I think I was the only kid there without a trust fund,
probably.
It was like, it was wild.
But I wasn't friends with him.
But at the time, Albert had also gone there for like six months.
Did Kim Jong-un go to that boarding school?
I don't think so.
I think he went to Switzerland.
Oh.
I think the old man sent him off to probably your school.
You're probably roommates.
No?
Oh my God.
No, I had a Korean roommate.
But no, it wasn't him.
It was probably him.
He listened to End of the Road like a thousand, five hundred times.
You hated that?
Oh yeah.
Really?
That song.
Yeah.
Apparently Kim Jong-un got addicted to Emmentaler cheese when he was in
Switzerland.
And he'd have it like sent to North Korea.
Oh, okay.
And he ate so much cheese, it almost killed him.
He got gout.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, so I was like in adolescence when, you know, your first two albums came
out, right?
I was like a little boy.
But like your contemporaries in that era, it was Korn, you know, or like Limp
Bizkit.
Were you at the Grammys with those freaks?
We were at something where we lost.
Who'd you lose to?
Korn?
Fuck.
The better man won.
Let's be honest.
No, it wasn't Korn.
I would have bowed down.
I mean, I, you know, I don't know.
You like Korn?
I wanted to love, I loved a lot about it, but maybe musically sometimes I had
problems with
it.
You know what I mean?
I wanted like something.
Yeah, because it sounds like shit.
I like that one song that's like, you know that one?
The Korn?
Wah-ah-ah.
Freak on the, oh, wah-ah-ah-ah is good.
Okay.
Whenever I hear that music, I think of a guy in Afghanistan, like, during the
war, you know,
it's post 9-11, he's listening to, there is that clip of that guy being like, I
listen
to Let the Bodies Hit the Floor while I'm in Kabul.
It's kind of a nightmare, no?
What, the war or the music?
The juxtaposition.
The juxtaposition makes sense to me.
Because lads like me were listening.
When you're like upset, you know, sometimes you just want.
So you're pro-Iraq war?
Defending freedom at all costs.
No.
That was a crap war, in my opinion.
Okay.
That's not a controversial.
I just want to make it clear.
Colin Powell shouldn't have lied at the UN.
He said that in.
A lot of people aren't willing to say this, but they, you know,
where were the weapons of mass destruction?
I mean, if you said that in 2003, you'd get, like, fired from the New York
Times and stuff.
But now it's fine.
Yeah, now they're defending other.
There's a new lie to defend.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's your favorite war?
My favorite?
Yeah.
My favorite war.
I think World War II.
Fire.
Is not like the study of it, but, yeah, just, at least from the American
perspective, it was like, you know, we tried to stay out of it.
And then, yeah, eventually I feel like people thought, you know, the world was
going to be taken over by the Nazis or, you know, America, California was going
to be invaded by Japan.
So that was at least understandable.
Yeah.
And then, of course, it built a war machine.
U.S. Civil.
So sick.
What side would you have been on?
Um...
