Blacks in Arkansas are generally pleasant enough but, surprisingly considering where they are, the whites are pretentious and uppity. They actually think you can live your life in Arkansas and not be pathetic white trash. They have a sort of faux wannabe Santa Fe lifestyle thing that gives them a sense of superiority but in fact is really just sad. The whites in Arkansas think they’re a bit more progressive then Alabamians but in actuality blacks and LGBT and the irreligious have it worse in Arkansas.

Are there any worthwhile Arkansawyer authors or should we get straight into the music?

Not to mention that they're pretentious. Oh yeah, you said that. Well, they are. I mean, surely that should be pronounced "Ar-Kan-Saz"? Where the **** does "saw" come into it? They too uppity to want to be associated with Kansas?

His music sucks

Even the verse of this song sucks

But the chorus- the chorus on this is ****ing unforgettable

Best Campbell song ever.

Nice one!

Well Arkansas has some heavy hitters including Johnny Cash and Pharoah Sanders. So we might have to hang out in this pretentious Texas wannabe sweltering **** box for quite a while.

Honestly though, the first time I saw the state written I was sure that was how it was pronounced. Of course, they're not the only ones, and the British are the worst. I mean, Worcestershire is pronounced "Wor-ster-sheer"? WT actual F??? And don't get me started on Norwich, Leicester or Hertfordshire!

I mentioned her in a brief non sequitur post in Freak Fighter but a close look at her music is on the real necessary.

So I'm assuming I've been pronouncing these wrong all this time?

Also called "The Bible Belt" and believe me, it lives up to its name, too. And I can say that, because I've lived in Florida my whole life. Played a black metal show at a bar about 7 years ago, and 3 patrol cars were parked across the street at the gas station "just in case."

I imagine people like it for tourism, but living in the South, kind of sucks. Racism, poverty, and general bigoted ****asses run everything. Plus it's hot as ****. Central Florida gets up to 110 F sometimes in July with like 90% humidity and it still doesn't rain.

One thing that there’s no shortage of in Florida is extreme metal.

Horrible place to live though.
