| Tim Parrish, so you know what censorship feels like? |
hey, after reading this ridiculous story/discography/indulgent piece by tim parrish, i had always been meaning to ask you, when this group which i like btw, was actually working toward a goal, why in the fuck you and the librarian picked Tim, possibly the last person anyone even remotely involved in the scene would ever have heard, seen or remembered? besides harry dog and the fleas, i can honestly not think of a guy with three successively worse, frat, comedy, pretentious bands/music than this person. i mean, my question at this point is always: did he have a lot of money or some money to start the project? i just scrolled down the posts, and it seems like it turned into a vanity project for someone who is bored of teaching and wants to relive his days in a band, and fulfill some huge ego trip of a band which as far as i can tell has no history. but i'm going to tell you since you probably don't know. he was a joke. nobody i know ever saw him play at all. so how did he become the spokesman for a documentary of which he would otherwise not be included? i just want to know the story of the genesis of the project. and if it's totally shitcanned . i wrote this after doing a little harmless sparring with him. it was fun.
your assessment is similar to mine of TP. rest assured he isn't driving this project. it just may seem like he is involved. so don't worry bout him. enjoyed your jabbing. MF needs to be called out.
i'm laughing, but you didn't describe how he did get involved to the point that his joke band headlined your benefit show. i mean you don't have to tell me, but what else have you got to do.
oh, well, not laughing anymore. i guess he does run things. my post has magically disappeared. he must have gotten scared at how many people were liking it, including himself. i'm done with him. i hate censorship more than lies and mediocrity. tell him to go fuck himself.
Tim Parrish seriously, are you off your meds? I didn't delete anything. If that post is gone, then Rebecca Hamilton likely did it because bullshit accusations and baiting aren't the purpose of that site. Frankly, you aren't worthy of my time, because I really believe you're mentally ill. It's no shock that you seem to have no friends and that Spicer and seemingly everybody else has cut from you. It's not a joke that you accuse me of lying, particularly since it ain't true, so quit acting like it is a joke, loser. What stands have you taken? Absolutely zero. I truly feel sorry for you, and I won't be communicating with you anymore cause you ain't worth it, bro. I hope you get some help.
My friend and I could have been Dylann Roof
Tim Parrish, i haven't read anything so sleazy, so tabloid, so thirsty or cringeworthy since Ben Carson's memoir of delusional thug life.
you played this right down the middle, in order to keep your job and get your 15 minutes.
So it comes off as neither hot, nor cold, just tepid.
Throwing stars?
You need to cut back on the narcissism and self-aggrandizement for us, yourself, and bands you used to be in for a second which no one has ever heard of today or 30 years ago.
you had no business insinuating yourself into a project, which if not for your participation, wouldn't have included you.
it seems that everything you do is motivated by your need to be legitimized; from your self-confessed, watered down racist upbringing and miraculous redemption, to your stunted dilemma of choosing between being a Baton Rouge rock 'n' roll footnote or a career in academia.
stick with academia, at least until someone googles you and has your ass booted out of University for your faux-brags about being the 'almost' Dylann Roof.
Tim Parrish, so you know what censorship feels like? what a coward to delete a post whose only defect was criticizing your character. but administrators get to protect themselves from awkward, career-damaging free speech, even when you persist in providing ammunition all over the internet. you're a terrible example for your students at Southern Connecticut State University first, and to its faculty, ultimately.

He constructs an authentic, striking account of his Racist parents and Racist siblings. He narrates his father celebrating the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his mother asking him to only reference black people as jigaboos while at home. Professor Parrish contrasts the hypocrisy of a family professing to follow the doctrines of Christianity, while their daily beliefs and conduct illustrated dedication to the Religion of White Supremacy. The C.O.W.S broadcast , hosted by Gus T Renegade. Is dedicated to sharing constructive information on what White Supremacy/Racism is and how it works. The C.O.W.S exchange views with White People, Admitted Racists, and non-white people on the global enterprise of White Supremacy/Terrorism

About Professor Parrish
I grew up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and in 1994 made my way to Southern Connecticut State, where my colleagues and I have helped the university evolve into a top-notch, student-centered place of learning. Previously, I taught at LSU, Scotlandville Magnet High School, and the University of Alabama, and think of myself as a teacher who tries hard to meet my students where they are, push them to learn, and make class entertaining and rigorous simultaneously. One of my proudest accomplishments is helping found the first and only full-residence MFA in Creative Writing in Connecticut, and I'm proud to stay that our program has drawn outstanding students from twelve states. We base both our excellent undergraduate and graduate curricula on the idea of community, and I believe we have created a welcoming, smart, talented, ambitious community!
