The terrible lie he is talking about is religion

[saranoid]

lol....you know, it's funny....I was 17 when I first heard "Closer" on the radio. At the time I was very conservative, and was dating a conservative boyfriend. When we heard the chorus, we just looked at each other and distastefully turned off the radio.

One year later I had broken up with him and was hysterical in the front row at NIN shows. lol

I knew a person who was religious, who was more afraid of NIN than Deicide.

Benghazi........

I had a friend who said NIN was queer. As in sucked. I don't understand why they would say that lol. When I think of queer music, I think of Justin Beiber.

Hell, did it to my mind in 2011. I've always been mildly into NIN, every since the late 90s in highschool. But I kind of dismissed it later on as I got into more music. But, once I went back and rediscovered this album, I realized how utterly genius Trent's songwriting was.

Writer? nice!  I've interviewed Clive Barker (Hellraiser) about his book Imajica, and have been told that my writing is quite eloquent. =)
