We were just amazed we were putting out a record. We were, and are, still learning. But we've never cared much for professionalism as long as the energy was there. Like our live shows: We're out of tune and use a lot of feedback. That's not on purpose or because we don't care, we're just musically and rhythmically retarded and we play so hard that we can't tune our guitars fast enough.

I bought a gun and chose drugs instead.

I just don't like to get intimate. I don't want anyone to know what I feel and what I think, and if they can't get some kind of an idea of what sort of person I am through my music, then that's too bad.

I just hope I don't become so blissful I become boring. I think I'll always be neurotic enough to do something weird.

A friend is nothing but a known enemy.

Please read my diary, look through my things and figure me out.

I was tired of pretending that I was someone else just to get along with people, just for the sake of having friendships.
