    Dear God Tool fans are insufferable. No wonder Maynard got a kick out of getting them all to wear shirts that label them as tools.

    If anyone doubts this, listen to the lyrics of their song Hooker with a Penis. It’s a giant fuck you to pretentious fans who say they’ve sold out.

    And no, no hookers or penises are actually in the song.
