In Russia, Homework Procrastinates On You!

What? You've never had to stand up in front of the whole class and deliver your report?

I hope those guys got whatever the Russian equivalent of an A is for their AP Death Metal Thesis class. Except for the guy who just stood in the background banging his head. B+. Good effort but needs to contribute more to group projects.

Did they have to go the rest of the school day dressed like that?

I think the beginning of this roughly translates to the following, "the business card should not be...a source of apprehension..."

I think this was a treatise on Soviet-American relations and the thawing of the Cold War circa 1987.

Nothing says death metal like acoustic guitar. I can't handle the raw death metal energy or people like Jack Johnson and John Mayer. Too intense.

At 1:25 it looked like he was about to give that guy a lap dance. I feel a little bit cheated.

Favorite things, go! I'll start: World maps overlapping world maps. Gives you an idea about the context for this report.

Just 'cos there always has to be a trainspotter in the group: this, er, performance is situated in the tradition of black metal, not death metal. Open a fucking book.

can you please name a book that would let everyone else know that fact? I mean, duh, black metal, we get it. But some of these other philistines don't understand. These books of which you speak are sooooo readily available. It's called general reading. Like Twilight. Jesus, open a fucking book. I think I was forced to read the "Black Metal Meshuggah, a History of Warlocks in Music" book when I was in fifth grade.

Everyone should open a fucking book. These guys are doing important things and you all don't get it because you haven't read a book.
