Beats being Sid Vicious after he killed Debbie Spungeon.
Either way, it's easy being a Punk when you're young and dumb (I know from first hand experience).

They were largely non musical kids put together as in NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, by a clothing designer named Malcom McLaren who also dressed them. After learning this it’s a miracle and already an irony that such a masterpiece as Nevermind the Bollocks was ever made. Their roots were never as anti establishment as their record was. And as far as the hippies comment...most former hippies I know are quite well off and left their idealism with their 20’s. Only a die hard sect of the population stays radical into old age and they usually get brushed off as out of touch with reality or just unwanted homeless people, which is too bad.
^ Yes well said...this Rotten story (pun intended) is really just a small example of a much larger problem going on in many major cities...especially on the west coast.
And the greater irony (and hypocrisy) going on is that a large percentage of those responsible for supporting the disastrous policies that created the problem are now complaining about it when it shows up in their neighborhoods.

I few months ago I saw a bus full of homeless unload in a shopping center parking lot near my hometown in Central California. I asked a guy what they were doing here, he said he was paid $600 to basically relocate. I did a web search and apparently it's a common practice for my neighboring metropolitans to ship some of their lowest class citizens out to greener pastures.

Don't look for a lot of empathy from me. The beaches were open to all when I was a kid and now mile after mile of them have been made off limits by developers who got ordinances changed. $12,000,000 for a poop show? Works for me.
I've only had time to watch the first 10 mins of this so far but just to that point was quite revealing...looks like a very interesting documentary regarding the situation in Seattle.

People put too much effort into helping “homeless people” when these people normally have no intention of ever behaving responsibly enough to maintain a shelter for themselves.
If there isn’t enough room in the prisons, make the homeless people build new prisons as part of their sentence for disrupting public order.
Yes I was born a Curmudgeon.

Johnny has a prominent role in the recent 4-part series "Punk". It's worth watching and he definitely has a different perspective on life these days.
