Kid Rock is the human version of an above ground pool.
Kid Rock fans know the age of consent law in every state.
Kid rock fans know which tattoo parlours take food stamps.
Kid Rock fans know which liquor stores will ring up fake milk so you can use EBT to buy a 40.
They all know how to add money to a JPay account.
So does kid rock: https://thehardtimes.net/culture/kid-rock-wins-creepy-talent-show-after-reciting-verbatim-every-age-of-consent-law-from-all-50-states/
(satire of course)
About 15 years ago I had an ex who LOVED Kid Rock. I’m a hillbilly from a hillbilly town and some of his early shit was pretty catchy so that wasn’t entirely surprising. So I took her to a show. Most of the people there met that exact description. Plus there were more meth heads there than at a 3am convention for folks with broken teeth.
admittedly waaf played him all the time and i loved the debut album and i hate myself for it
TL;DR a lot of artists everyone loves are complete pieces of shit, and I’m an old man yelling at clouds.
Don’t hate yourself for it. Plenty of pieces of shit put out great (or at least really catchy and fun) songs. Half the rock artists from 1950 to 2000 were banging underage girls. R. Kelly had some dope music. Elvis definitely did some fucked up shit. There’s the Lostprophets guy that I won’t even mention his name (he did some nightmare shit). Cream was really good but Clapton is a hateful whacko. Gary Glitter, Ike Turner, Chris Brown, Vince Neil, (possibly) John Phillips, Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler, Phil Spector…it’s fucking rough out here.
It’s a fucked up industry with fucked up people. That doesn’t make it ok. It just makes it hard to listen unless you divorce the art from the artist. Kid Rock is a huge piece of shit, but he’s not even close to the worst. I’m not aware of him killing someone, committing incest, or banging babies but I may be out of the loop. He’s just an edgy idiotic bigot who is cringy as hell.
Of course I’m a lefty-ish Texan so I hear bigot music all the time. I’m numb to it. Rah rah flag, rah rah small town, rah rah David Allen Coe shit. Go look up any of his music that isn’t You Never Even Called Me by My Name. He’s wildly racist. Charlie Daniels did Uneasy Rider about being a long haired guy stranded in hick country, played Jimmy Carter’s inauguration, then followed that up with Uneasy Rider '88 about accidentally going to a punk rock gay bar and dancing with either cross dressers or trans women. He was cringy as fuck towards the end but I still hear about that fucking golden fiddle.
This comment got away from me. So I’m gonna stop because I could be here for hours talking shit.

While I agree with the sentiment, please do not disparage the mighty sawzall. Wielding the sawzall while doing any sort of home improvement work is the closest you will get to feeling like you’re a god. A god of destruction.
In case anyone else is wondering wtf a Sawzall is: It’s a bayonet saw.
I think a bayonet saw is more like a jigsaw. A sawzall is also know and a reciprocating saw. They are similar mechanisms, but while a jigsaw is smaller and often used to cut curves out of sheet material, a sawzall is much bigger and used for general purpose, often demolition.
Bayonet saw sounds more terrifying than it actually is. Sounds like some warhammer 40k shit
That makes it sound fucking metal.
Saber saw is the common one, reciprocating saw is the technical term.
Someone once cut the catalytic converter out of a pediatric nurse’s car in the parking lot of the pediatric hospital we worked at while she was at work one day and left pieces of the sawzall all over the parking lot.
If it broke, then twas but an impostor. I have had my trusty DeWalt now for years exceeding one and twenty. The trusty blade has gone through multiple major remodels without complaint or failure. Unfortunately the mighty sawzall is but a tool. A tool that in the wrong hands can bring woe to the innocent, as it did to thy fair nurse.
I feel that more when using my acetylene torch
The sawzall + a torch + a impact hammer are the three kings
With an angle grinder and a MIG welder, you can dismantle and remake the world.
Sometimes I reminisce about the days when I was a mechanic. Small jobs like cutting off what remained of a small lower unit fin of a boat, cutting a blank to size to weld back on, grind it all smooth, prime and paint. To look brand new when done. Cut out rusted brackets and weld in new stock. Welding together shelves for the parts area from angle iron. It was really empowering. I’m glad I got out of that and work in IT now. It’s easier on my body and I make a hell of a lot better living but the sense of accomplishment doesn’t remotely compare to stepping back and admiring something I fixed or built.
What is sudafed?
(Yes, I can google, but talking to people is more fun and google results can be trash)
Cold medicine containing pseudoephedrine, a precursor to making meth
To add to that about 10-15 years ago it became more common knowledge so laws were enacted to limit it since it was OTC. I was pissed at the time because the calculations didn’t account for 31 day months, so I’d have to go a day without it because of some meth makers.
Why are you consuming the legal limit of cold medicine daily?
lol it’s not daily. Look up Claritin-D 24 hour. The way it calculates out you can’t get a 31st pill. They’re sold in 5, 10 or 15 packs. And 30x the amount in each pill is the monthly limit.
this dude knows exactly how much sudafed you can buy at a time
And listens to Kid Rock.
This dude doesn’t know what its like to live with allergies.
It’s also taken for allergies. It’s a decongestant.
Pseudoephedrine is the main ingredient in meth. Kid Rock aficionados know how many Sudafed they can legally buy at a single pharmacy so they can then go home and cook up some crank.
Kid rock doesn’t represent poor people, drug users, or thieves. He’s a rich kid in cosplay
I wondered what his actual background was after seeing this comment thinking “well yeah, now after he got famous” but you’re right; he was born a rich kid. Maybe not super rich, but rich enough that his parents owned multiple car dealerships and grew up on a large plot of land that had stables and horses.
It will really get you pumped up for your meth cooking sessions
But be careful or it will make your teeth fall out. And keep your dirty hands off your sister, damnit!
Hey, she’s my sister too!
The musical equivalent of eating a spoonful of mayo
Spoonful of Velveeta on spaghetti.
don’t disparage mac and cheese like that :(
Mac and legally not allowed to be called cheese in most countries.
What did mayo ever do to you?
A redditor would find this fucking brilliant
*robert ritchie, the rich kid from the suburban romeo, michigan (not detroit) not kid rock
Now I feel like I should watch Trevor Wallaces “Wears Pit Vipers Once” video. It’s like an homage to Kid Rock and his fans.
“How’s your grandma like my Pit Vipers? They both ride my face until sunset! Yeehaw, meemaw!”
All Sawzalls are electric, a non electric one is just a hacksaw.
Care to explain the title? How does any of that relate to SovCits?
