Swedish man "addicted to heavy metal": A "disability"??
http://www.thelocal.se/45566/20130111/#.UPV9yHfAF8E
I, for one, am insulted that anyone would act like being a heavy metal fan is a person with an "addiction" and that it's a "disability". To me, it's EMPOWERMENT.  I think the guy's just acting lazy.

Greg, I knew if anyone would take umbrage to this story, you would!!! I agree, I think his story is a cop-out.

"feel sorry" for a guy like that and give him these unnecessary perks. Sweden is a huge metal place as well. I wonder how all these other bands there feel about this doofus?

Why does this sound like the premise of a a wannabe retro-1980's metal song?
"Metal is my disability" by... oh, I don't know. Quite Riot, maybe?  OT, I saved this link from a couple of weeks ago, and I thought I should post it: http://dream-big-live-shy.tumblr.com...-memeblock-com |
