Hilly Kristal, legendary owner of the famed CBGB t-shirt factory, died yesterday. His funeral will boast the largest congregation of sellouts since the most recent State of the Union address.

    RIP. He was a good man. Put a smile on my face. I've missed the endless nights at CBs.

    Nice, Cord.

    But really that's very sad. I loved him in that one movie. "Oh but Baby Fish Mouth is sweeping the nation?"

    Same guy right?

    Is it inappropriate to laugh so hard in an RIP thread?

    Waiter, there is too much pepper on my paprikash.

    And no Kitchy, it's not wrong. He would have wanted it this way. He would want us to move on.

    dude shut the fuck up. sell out is far too much of an over-used word. successful? yes. mainstream? yes. they're opening their music and hard work up to more people when they are offered the chance. so fucking what?

    uhhh von coffin that's not what we like to do here. try to say disagree nicely. would it be so hard?

    i thought Cord was talking about the people who actually wear the tshirts and don't know what they mean.

    It's true, most people don't even know. They buy these shirts at Urban Outfitters and all those other crap-shacks like Hot Topic because they think it's cool. I traveled around many places, seeing CBs shirts in England and Italy made me cringe. They knew nothing of what the shirt was about. Makes me feel dissed after I've spent most of my younger years there.
