Shut Up, Dude: This Week’s Best Comments

5:58 PM EDT on September 27, 2024

This week we saw beefs between Journey and Avenged Sevenfold and between Peter Frampton and Megadeth. I wish I had a third example right now but we may have to wait until some band picks a fight with Grand Funk Railroad at ACL. Your final best comments of September are below!

Happy Birthday Mary Jo! See you in Frankfort.

	"Collaborating with the band to bring their vision to life has been an incredible experience. I enjoyed typing SUNFLOWERS, ASTRONAUT and CLOUDS, hitting enter and waiting 30 seconds for the art, which I am very proud of." "Here's an earlier version:"

	Voting Kamala and then pressuring her to act on Gaza would be in the best interest of Palestinians. If Trump wins, he would allow their complete eradication.

	Hi everyone. Bad news first: a member of my household has Covid and I have to work to ensure everyone else doesn't get it now. Good news is my fiance made a viral tweet yesterday that Stereogum posted on their Instagram. You probably saw it; it's the Sabrina Carpenter one. Oh yeah, and I got engaged while I was in Ireland. I've been too busy and dealing with stress to announce it much publicly. If it wasn't for Stereogum I wouldn't have met the most important person to me. And for that, I thank the entire crew andcommentariat. And finally paid for a membership lmao. Have a great weekend, everyone.

	This might be one of the best, most principled "sorry, not sorry" statements I've ever seen. I was not expecting it from the headline, and each subsequent paragraph of his elicited louder and louder fuck yeahs in my brain. This dude is putting in the WORK and I appreciate and laud his commitment. Big ups!
