If you’re a dude with calloused knees, you probably own some lube unless you want to take it raw :anguished:

Kneeling makes you a hero? Ani Di Franco thinks not:

…we know we can’t sit back
And let people come to harm
We owe them our lives
Each breath is recycled from someone else’s lungs
Our enemies are the very air
Our enemies are the air

We are looking for the holes
The holes in your jeans
Because we want to know
Are they worn out in the seat
Or are they worn out in the knees

Heroes stand the fuck up.

I had a friend that did flooring. He had some seriously calloused knees. Gawd, they looked deformed.

Agree.

“Isn’t about time you get some sweat on your forehead? Isn’t about time you get some dirt under your nails and get some grease on your hands? Isn’t about time you get some blood on your sword? Cursed be the man that keepeth his sword from blood,” the angry man continued. “We need heroes in this hour! Heroes have callused knees [??!]. Heroes might get terminated from their jobs. Heroes might not get invited to the family reunion.”

Certainly an odd way to spell homophobe. Only six letters?

Well, yeah. I expect he meant something those lines. But I welcome the ambiguity!

I’d make a joke about this shit being why I left Baton Rouge, but its not like they don’t have the same unchristian nut jobs everywhere else I’ve lived.

I hope I’ll see a day when idiots like this are just crazy stories that young people won’t believe actually happened
