Ramones/mission[edit]

"their angsty lyrics did explore controversial subjects such as solvent abuse and casual violence"

"Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue" and "Beat on the Brat". You have a knack for severe understatement :) Secret Squirrel 21:11, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I liked that. Although, this and hardline are gonna have a hard time surviving a mission-threat if it ever comes up... ħumanUser talk:Human 01:14, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
Hardline's cranky enough to survive any mission threat, although it could fail on grounds of obscurity and short-livedness. But I mean, a mix of religious right, animal rights, teetotalism, radical environmentalism, punk rock, and the kitchen sink all at the same time? I remember it came and went quickly and everyone had the same WTF reaction then forgot about it. As for punk, I just read the Wikipedia article and after reading that, there's really no reason to have an article here. Secret Squirrel 02:11, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
We also have Heavy Metal and Goth, they aren't bang on the mission statements but they've been here for ages. Punk could somewhat be defended for the political, sometimes anti-religious nature of it. SJ Debaser 09:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
The best way to head off a mission threat is to make the article interesting. It's currently a pretty bland treatment of what is actually a very interesting and lulzworthy subject. Totnesmartin 10:29, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for creating this article (finally)[edit]

I was going to do that, after I stop procrastinating all the time. But I'll stop procrastinating later.The Goonie 1 02:36, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

That's cool. I'm currently digesting. SJ Debaser 09:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
