Oh wow - I thought our neighbor when I was a teenager had come up with this one themselves, when they warned my parents I was listening to satanic music.
"No, mom, I'm going to a party! With drugs! And alcohol! I swear!"
"You can't fool me, sonny! I know you don't get invited to parties. You're going to play Dragons and Dungeons with that group of nerds you call your friends, aren't you!"
"...yes, mom..."
"Now go to your room and think about what you've done. Pray to the Lord for mercy, and don't come out again until God sends you a sign that he has forgiven you!"
They're vegan, they're straight edge (don't drink or do drugs and take a stance against those things) and are satanists, in the anti-religious poking fun at Christianity sense. Don't think they actually worship Satan.
The only songs they've done even relevant to their name is Dirty Deeds (Done Dirt Cheap) and T.N.T. Specifically the lines that say "HIGH VOLTAGE!", "I'm a powerload" and "I'm a livewire"
This is disrespectful to Satan. I mean the man invented Jazz to corrupt the youth and you think he's wasting his time with dumb-ass boomer blues-rock? What a downgrade, no wonder Satan hates Christians.
The worst part about Aussies is that you can't just outlast them and hide in the desert since they too are adapted for such environments. Upside is the sidewinders and lizards who shoot blood from their eyes might catch them off guard on occasion.
AC means Alternating Current, electrical current that periodically reverses direction, and DC means Direct Current, a current that continuously flows in one direction. AC/DC on a socket means it can take both types of power.
So see, power intake is a spectrumā¦ some devices are born AC, some DC. Some devices however go both ways. Itās natural. However some organizations like the IEC want to force their narrow world view on everyone.
There were many rumours about the singer of AC/DC was bisexual because of all that (that the name came from it IIRC), he has debunked it numerous times.
Down here in dullardville they said it meant "After Christ Devil Comes" when I was a kid. I had never heard of them and gave them a try. Funny, that I found out about one of my lifelong favorite bands because useless god bothers made up some stupid shit about them.
Classic Streisand at play "DONT listen to this band cause they are SUPER evil and they are the DEVIL!!!!"
You'd think religious people would eventually learn the harder they try to repress exploration, the more they end up encouraging it. It's more fact than stereotype that the most sexually repressed and sheltered growing up end up becoming the freakiest and kinkiest.
Fun Fact/Factoid, use to be true, but like everything else, we've used it wrong for so long it's considered to be either
A factoid was originally defined to mean a false statement presented as a fact.[1][2] In colloquial speech, it is often used to mean a true but brief or trivial item of news or information (which can be less ambiguously described as a "factlet").
Fun story: I once (seriously) tried to start a 3d printing company called bad dragon. After getting cards and launching the etsy store i discovered that name was taken. Always Google first.
