BUTTHOLE SUN,

Won’t you come?

And wash away the rain?

(Edit: forgot lyrics changed ‘tears’ to ‘rain’ apologies.)

A 2021 survey by the Public Religion Research Institute found that 23% of Republicans believe that “the government, media and financial worlds in the U.S. are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles.”

I'm torn between thinking "Well, Marx didn't think of that" and "it's predictable that during the death throes of hypercapitalism the proletariat may get a bit fuzzy-headed."

I ain't a pedophile, but I wish I controlled part of the government, media, and/or financial worlds.

Remove the Satan-worshipping part and it's correct though

Exsqueeze me, baking powder, it sounded like you just said butthole sunners. I, uh... I need an adult.

I was thinking Butthole Surfers at first, but upon second inspection, it really was sunners. Hope they wear lotion. That'd be a rough spot to get a burn.

Riccosuave@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y

Gives a whole new meaning to ring burn 🔥 😅

Apparently it has a significant chance of "aggressive ass cancer".

Hi, I'm an adult. Let's go to the beach, I'll explain.

Butthole Sunners

Sounds like a cover band.

Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 2y

I was just formulating the album name, Eccentric Hairyland.

xmunk@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 2y

I always appreciate some Butthole Surfers.

pivot_root@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

You should hear their rendition of "Ring of Fire".

Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Or a parody of a Soundgarden song

So. The question is….

jeffw@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Kinda exactly what it sounds like lol

CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social · 2 pts · 2y

Some people take "where the sun don't shine" as a challenge it seems

BoRiNg, lol

jeffw@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

The picture of the dude sticking his ass up makes it worth the click still lol

XTL@sopuli.xyz · 3 pts · 2y

They're like butthole surfers, but prefer to stay on the spectator side.
