Gotta be honest I’m feeling fortunate that I’m not considered “good” at posting on an online message board that’s tangentially related to a rock band that peaked 25 years ago and has been just kinda hanging around ever since

99% of the puns on this board are terrible. Occasionally Ruddo posts a good one.
