UGH
I collect cassettes, and periodically check eBay for large lots. I just found a lot of 2 dozen or so skinhead* cassettes, with charming names like “Flameable Hebrews,” “Soundtrack for Aryan War,” and “To Kampf,” for auction. Some Nazi puke is selling them off because he’s “no longer in the scene” (please, if you were really moving past your...

I work from home, so naturally, he drops in nearly every day, sometimes with his adorable pit bull puppy, Gorgeous.
