The Five Greatest Albums Of All Time... In My Opinion:

5- Nevermind by Nirvana

Yes, the same "Nevermind" that screamed "FUCK YOU!" to the hair metal bands of the 80's and ushered in a new era of rock. It has enough distortion to fulfill any metal fan's wishes, but still caters to anyone else who will care to listen... unless you aren't into grunge music, because this is pure grunge music. With the mega hit "Smells Like Teen Spirit", other hard-as-fuck rock songs like "Territorial Pissings" and "Breed", and softer and even haunting songs like "Polly" and "Come As You Are", this is the epitome of grunge music. Anyone who calls this album overrated is obviously not listening close enough.

4 - Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers

I'm going to ask you a question. What would you think if I told you "Man, I heard this awesome album by a funk/rock/rap band of all white guys!"? You would think I'm crazy, right? Of course you would, unless you have heard of Red Hot Chili Peppers before. It's the perfect mix of funk and rock, as James Brown would enjoy it as much as Chester Bennington would. Not to mention that Flea, the bassist, is like a magician when he gets his hands on the bass to make this possible flop funky as fuck. You've probably heard some of these songs without knowing you have, as the tracklisting includes the hits "Under The Bridge" and "Give It Away". If you are looking for an album that will make everyone dance but still rock enough to headbang to, this is for you.

3 - The Battle Of Los Angeles by Rage Against The Machine

If you don't know what Rage Against The Machine is, you disgust me. After I yell at you for not knowing what this amazing band is for an hour, I'll hand you a copy of this CD. It's the last album of original songs they made before breaking up, and it's easily their best album. Hell, it's the best album that mixes rock music with rap vocals ever. With Zack de la Rocha spitting fire-filled, politic-ripping verses into his microphone and Tom Morello, who may be the modern day Jimi Hendrix, making you hear sounds you have never heard from a guitar before, this is as original as a rock/rap album gets. And trust me, the rock factor on this album is insane. Every song is hard hitting, like "Born Of A Broken Man" and "Guerrilla Radio", and it never lets up. This album will take any other rock album out back and kick it's pussy ass.

2 - Songs For The Deaf by Queens Of The Stone Age:

I'm saying this right now: THIS IS THE SINGLE GREATEST ROCK ALBUM EVER RELEASED IN THE HISTORY OF MUSIC. I'm not even over-exaggerating. For gods sake, it has Dave Grohl and Josh Homme on the same album! It's very hard to top that. The whole albums starts with "You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire", which is one of the hardest rock songs you will ever hear while still maintaining a rock sound, and it only gets better from there. If we were talking about the best drum albums, this would be number one, as Dave Grohl basically makes the drum set his bitch on this album. And it's not just some Slipknot "Look how fast I can play!" bullshit, it's actual technical drums played either really fast or decently fast, but still amazing either way. But not matter what, if you like rock whatsoever, you owe it to yourself to listen to this album. You can thank me later.

1 - The Fragile by Nine Inch Nails:

If you know me at all, you would have seen this coming. This two-disk masterpiece, made by none other then Trent Reznor (AKA God), is the greatest album ever made. It is the purest representation of music as an art form ever released. It mixes industrial with rock with metal with electronica with ballads with instrumentals with slow piano songs with every other fucking thing you can think of and it does it such an amazing way, you would have thought that it had to be made by a team of 50 people. But nope... it was all made by the one and only Trent Reznor with the help of a few guest drummers and pianists. It has musical vision up the ass with epics such as "We're In This Together" and "The Day The World Went Away" mixed with odd, even un-nerving songs such as "The New Flesh" and "Starfuckers, Inc." Seriously, if you like music at all, you have to listen to this album. It's your duty as a human being.

Honorable Mentions:

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles

You'll Rebel To Anything by Mindless Self Indulgence

Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson (Trent Reznor produced this and recorded some guitar and piano parts! THAT'S WHY IT'S AWESOME!)

In Your Honor by Foo Fighters

You Know, I Have Nothing Better To Do, So I Am Talking About This For The Final Time:

Brandon Bernicky. Also known as @bbstudios on Twitter. Me and him used to be best friends. We would always talk and hang out and whenever my parents made fun of him for riding an electric scooter, I always defended him (even though I always thought it was kinda gay also). Anyone insulted him, I always had his back. Even when I went along with the jokes against him, I still always had his back.

But he didn't have mine. Or at least as of late he hasn't. Let me boil it down:

1: My friend Anay and I started working at his site. I covered video games, Anay covered Tech.

2: We started to enjoy our job. We were told we will begin to be paid using the money from the ads on the site.

3: The ads get on the site.

4: A few months later, still no money.

5: Brandon started to push random deadlines on us and acts like he actually gets a lot of people to visit his site.

6: Brandon then threatened to fire us for not doing our jobs, even though we were still updating even though he STILL didn't pay us.

7: Anay and I quit his site and went on to make Pwnagepickle.com

8: Anay and I worked it out with Brandon and started working at his "new-and-improved", yet still shitty looking site AND Pwnagepickle.com

9: Repeat steps 4-6.

10: Anay and I quit for good.

Now, since Brandon just lost his two best reporters (You know it's true Brandon. As much as I like Anthony, he just can't report well. And I think Anay and I were the only two people on that site to actually be able to spell and use proper grammar), he got pissed. He formed some sort of vendetta against us and started bashing Anay and I whenever he could.

It's sad though, because Brandon was a good guy! I am not lying here or trying to make myself seem like less of a bad guy, but he was a really cool guy! He, to a certain extent, was pretty bright and he knew a shit load about computers. He would always school me when it came to computers and we would just laugh it off. I am just sad because above all of that, he was a really good friend! He would always stand up for you and be there to help you.

If you can't already tell, I really liked Brandon. But that's exactly it. LikED, as in past tense.

He just let his "work" get in the way of things. He saw Anay and I as competitors and started bad mouthing our site. When a group called "The Silent Vandals" hacked his site, even after we told him it wasn't us, he blamed our website.

He then later went on to insult my family, calling them "messed up" and "insane" and began to make fun of Anay's Indian heritage. He then went on to say I was "screwed up" and "in need of help".

It didn't phase me though. It was just a sign of weakness from him. He had to resort to this.

Now, if you would read my livejournal, I do have some problems I need to work out. Do I care that Brandon pointed this out? Hell no. I pointed it out myself.

The thing that pisses me off though is that he is trying to say that his life is so much worse then mine, even though his parents get him whatever the fuck he wants. He gets a new laptop every, what, three months? A new desktop every year? A new game system whenever it comes out? Sorry to borrow a line from Eminem, but "Don't ever try to judge me dude/you don't know what the fuck I've been though".

But, all in all, I am just pissed that he had to become such a jackass. I know he is going to try to pull some lame insult at me again, most likely insulting my swearing, but I really don't give a fuck.

This is the last time I am talking about this. All talking about it does is make me pissed off and I have better things to do with my time then to argue with Brandon. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to argue with some friends of mine.

Dear News Channels: FOCUS ON REAL NEWS

Dear New Channels,

Yes, it is very saddening that Michael Jackson has died. I am very sad about it myself. He was a trailblazer in the entertainment world and we have lost not only a good entertainer, but a good person. But that's besides the point. The point is this: ALL YOU NEWS CHANNELS NEED TO FOCUS ON REAL NEWS.

We have E! and MTV to focus on the Michael Jackson news. CNN and NBC and FOX and all the other news channels need to focus on REAL news, like the shit happening over in Iraq. You guys just need to do your job and inform us on current world events and leave the entertainment news to E! and MTV.

Thanks,
Zack.

Here We Go: The Best Songs Ever Made

In no order... I am just so excited this fucking worked!

The Best Songs Ever... That I Could Find Here

The Best Songs You Never Heard Of: An iMix

I didn't know you could make a little thing like this... but you can... and it's fucking awesome.

I Can Has 5,000 Twitter Updates? YES!

I now have 5,000 twitter updates! Well... I have over that now... but still. In celebration, I asked a bunch of friends what were their reactions! Here is the result:

Trent Reznor: "What? Why are you telling me this? You expect me to actually care about it? Did something accidentally hit you in the head today? I'm Trent Fucking Reznor, I don't give a flying fuck about your worthless Twitter updates. I fucking left Twitter. No... I don't think YOU understand. you fucking pig. I. DO. NOT. CARE. You getting the hint yet? No? Goddamn... you are a fucking retard! Just go fucking kill yourself. Yes... KILL YOURSELF. You don't deserve to live! YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT! You know what? Fuck you. Fuck you and fuck this. Imma go fuck my wife to "Closer". Goodbye."

I liked that one the best.

Hayley Williams: "Really? That's great! Good for you! I tried to stay away from Twitter for a while... but my new Sidekick came with a Twitter app... so I gave up. Hey! You recall when "RIOT!" went platinum? That was awesome. I totally ruined the surprise. I accidentally walked into the party without the guys. It was pretty embarrassing. Yeah. Oh... this is about YOU! Oh... sorry! Ummmm... congrats! Now, if you excuse me, I have to go on a date with that guy from New Found Glory that no one knows about. Peace!"

Her's was interesting. I cut out the part when I asked if we could hang out at sometime because she totally shot me down. It cut me real deep like.

Mike Shinoda: "Twitter. Twitter always interested me."

Then he just spaced out and I left.

Steven Hawkins: "that is impossible. the amount of time you used to make that many worthless comments would be phenomenal unless you have no life. you do have a life, right?"

Yeah, that ended pretty quickly.

Meathead: "Fuck you, man."

He is such a character.

Morgan Webb: "Thanks for getting me my Twitter account! But other then that, I don't really care about you. I am a very attractive woman married to a billionaire and I host a very popular TV show. So... bye."

I still can't believe she talked to me. Oh... and I actually did get her her twitter account... or at least I think I did. I did talk to some guys at G4 about a fake one going around and then it turned into the real Morgan Webb. I think they fixed something.

Christian Bale: "Jesus, that's amateur. We are done professionally."

Well... if 5,000 is amateur... where are YOUR Twitter updates? Where? What? You don't have any? Didn't fucking think so.

Megan Fox: "Who the fuck are you?"

Yeah... she didn't remember me.

Handbanana: "That is good. Very good. You know what else is very good? RAPE."

Yeah... I bailed out of that one pretty quick like.

Eminem: "That is big... like my mom. It's stupid that you are asking everyone their reaction... like my mom. It's a waste of space on the internet... like my mom. Imma go take some pills... like my mom."

I wonder what he thinks about his mom.

My Dead Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Grandfather: "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS."

Quite a card, he is.

Brit Storm: "Ummmm... good for you? Twitter isn't that big of a deal, Zack. Why don't you focus on your music or something?"

She always makes me laugh.

ihatecrayons: "YOU TALKED TO TRENT REZNOR?! I FUCKING HATE YOU!"

She then stormed off.

Suge: "You've got some catching up to do..."

She's so sweet.

Then... the last person I talked to:

Taylor Willhalm: "Is your name Tyler? Is it Madison? Kate? Shannon? No, it's Zack. I don't hang out with Zack. Now... would you please kindly go fuck yourself? Thanks."

I don't even know why I tried with her.

So... there you go! Oh wait... I found a bit more!

Me: "So... you wanna hang out sometime?"

Hayley Williams: "I like hanging out!"

Me: "I mean... like us hanging out. Just as friends... but hanging out. Maybe grabbing some dinner?"

Hayley Williams: "With you? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

She then preceded to fall off her chair with laughter. About 15 minutes later, she stopped.

Hayley Williams: "Wow... you really are stupid, aren't you?"

There ya go. As you can see... no one really gives a fuck I hit 5,000... and I wouldn't have it any other way.
