  • Justin Sane, frontman of punk rock’s Anti-Flag, was recently accused of “predatory behavior, sexual assault, and statutory rape.”

    Allegedly he’d eyefuck girls from the stage during shows in a very “That’s right, I’m a rockstar, lookin’ at you” kind of way, and somehow get them invited backstage later.

    His bandmates disbanded after the news broke. Bandmates say they weren’t aware, that they stand with the victims, and they condemn his actions.

    I saw Anti-Flag at a small venue years back and it makes me wonder if it happened to fellow concertgoers that night.


  • I’ve had clumsy moments as time goes on, and I’ve thought about this before, but in my case I can chalk it up to two big things:

    1.) I’ve gained weight, and I believe there’s a correlation between aging and gaining weight. Certain maneuvers are noticeably harder. I seem more top-heavy than in my memories of being younger.

    2.) I have KIDS. I have almost died so many times because we’re disorganized and my kids’ crap is EVERYWHERE. I’ve had one broken toe, countless foot bruises, surprise falcon kicks to baby skulls, and several instances of “Why, child, have you crawled under my feet, from behind me, while I briskly walk to the bathroom? Well I don’t want to maim or kill you, so…Guess I’ll die aka avoid putting any weight on that foot and toss my body as far away from theirs as possible during planetfall btw Did you know plastic cups explode if crushed just right?” Likelihood of having kids correlates with age, I assume.

    Now…you listed several mental things besides physical. So I guess I’m only speaking to physical clumsiness :P
