It never fails. Feeling bored, I poked around in SHiteland to kill some time. There is a RHCP thread over there I happened upon. (While many people at Stereo Central hate that particular group, I like them! So, there! ) Anyway, a bunch of folks were enjoying the thread, and this Zoot Marimba character just insisted on being an asshole in it. For fuck sakes, if you don’t like the discussion, why continue to dump negativity around? The guy’s name turned up here a few times while searching to see if he was on anyone else’s radar. He didn’t appear to have his own thread – an oversight I’m taking care of right now. It’s rare that I start a dedicated thread the first time I take notice of a particular SHite, but his rampant “pay-atttention-to- ME-and-my-opinions” attitude pissed me off.

That dollar-store Lester Bangs/Frank Zappa wanna-be is the whole reason for my existence at this site. Not STEVE or Ngrat or MYKKKE or DeVoe. No, this asshole. It's not enough to not like something or someone, no, you gotta pop in every possible thread and dump on it repeatedly. As if the world waits with baited breath to hear some asshole from Georgia's high school opinion on it. And one post isn't enough, no. No, no, no. He will continue to pound on that point. He has even been called a broken record by another poater.
And that's before we've even gotten into his cute little "reviews". Ever so often, this dickless wonder will shit out a few one syllable words into wordpress and paste it on the fridge door at Hoofy's and start tagging people. What could possibly be more exciting than a "review" of some 45 year old boomer rock album that: 1. No one have given a shit about in 44 years Or 2. Has already been written about numerous times over the years by people that have a way with words.
Assholes just like him are why I quit poating over there. And that RHCP instance you spoke of? That shit is why. Keep bagging on it and bagging on it and bagging on it because HE is the superior musical mind! His opinion is FACT and it will be repeated until further notice! We're all just waiting for Rolling Stone to pick up on this genius!
Oh, and one more thing.
SAMMY HAGAR.

In fairness, he did start a RHCP appreciation thread. But in usual douche marimba fashion, only THIS period counts. Everything else is trash. Or dreck. Or AOR soft rock soccer mom music. No, only THIS era and THIS member counts. Because he said so.

We're all just waiting for Rolling Stone to pick up on this genius! Oh, and one more thing. SAMMY HAGAR. He is STILL going on in that RHCP thread – being an asshole exactly as you describe here. It’s unreal. I was actually in a mellow mood earlier and thought I’d check out a few threads and maybe even participate a little (an extreme rarity for the past few years). But, the first thread I visited was the aforementioned Chili Peppers’ one and that douchebag immediately got my goat. (He likes Sammy Hagar? So, to troll him you’d say Gary Cherone was better in Van Halen?)

Oh, no, my Boozin' friend. To say he doesn't like Hagar is putting it mildly. But like everything else, he has to constantly find a reason to bash Sammy. You're gonna find out his disdain for Sammy. And for any artist/song/singer/album he doesn't like. He'll go into a thread about Mayonnaise and dump on Sammy. Not enough to just dislike him. He manages to get a crack in during one of his shitty "Primus album reviews". At least you've noticed this, too.

His signature is "And I'm The Critic Of The Group" is usually a big red flag. You couldn't pay me to read his amateurish reviews. He has other sites around the 'net blithering his reviews of classic rock albums. He also claims to be "Just a reviewer with too much time on his hands". He's a 1st Class SHite Hole.

I'm certain the members of the Chili Peppers sit up at night, teary-eyed, saying "I can't believe this magical musical mind doesn't like some of our records! We should just pull those records out of print, go out back, and off ourselves! Our lives are ruined and over! Some two-bit clown on Hoofy's forum doesn't LIKE us!"
"I'm Zoot Marimba and I'm the useless oxygen thief of the group"". Something tells me he's never been part of any group, period.

Wait, so now it’s okay to like Sammy Hagar?

Feel free to like or dislike whomever or whatever you like. But can you do me a favor? Promise? You have to tell me over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over if you don't like them.
Especially because you're oh so creative! Give me one of those "mic drop" lines like "it's an album, I'll say that much". The critic, ladies and gents!
