Katie’s mom got offered the chance to be Blink 182’s tour manager for six weeks and get paid $18,000 for it. She said she’s “considering” it. DOES SHE EVEN KNOW WHO BLINK 182 IS?
“Cunt. It’s slang for vagina. It begins with a hard-c. It rhymes with punt, stunt and front. Use it lovingly, “that flower is opening up like a beautiful crimson cunt.” Use it with edge, “that little fucking cunt just cut me off.” Use it absurdly, “there’s a certain oaky cuntiness to this Merlot.” Use it frequently. And when someone balks or is morally offended, tell them it’s just a fucking word, lifted from a whore street in Old London and first used in print by James Joyce. Then gaze at them with judgmental disdain and tell them perhaps they’re the ones who need a morality check. Cunts.”
