"Striborg for President" would have been too easy and obvious, but State Auditor General is inherently funny because very few people know what that position is. I also like the description of the candidate: "Lyrics reveal a fascination with forests, night, darkness, misanthropy and death." That said, It would have been more clever to choose a more subtle candidate than Striborg. For example, Paul Ledney, Billy Milano, Evan Seinfeld, or Rex (from Pantera).
I know that election season is over, but I would like to see some other campaigns along these lines:
- Shifty Shellshock for Los Angeles City Administrative Officer
- Vinnie Paul for Denton County Commissioner
- Tommy Victor for Bergan County Surrogate
Can an Austrailian run for that office? hehe.
ReplyDeleteI object to this
ReplyDeletePennsylvania has plenty of forests.
ReplyDeletethis is a wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteSin Nanna lives an hour or so away from me. He's a wanker and his music is fucking terrible.
ReplyDeleteI thought he was from Tasmania?
ReplyDeleteWait who the fuck cares...
Philadelphia will never elect a black metaler. However, a burly cheese steak eating death metaler is a different story.
ReplyDeletei think that the only office foreigners are ineligible to run for in the US is president and maybe senate?
ReplyDeletein any case, i would never vote for a black metaller either! i could definitely get behind a slam metaller in some camo shorts and a Gorevent shirt, though.
at the risk of bringing up issues that may be outside the realm of politics, I simply could never bring myself to support Tommy Victor due to his awful fashion choices around the time he was in Danzig. I know this has nothing to do with his abilities, but wearing plastic pants certainly brings a man's character into question.
ReplyDeleteI voted for Striborg,..i dont vote for the lesser of two evils...i vote for the greatest of all evils and STRIBORG IS BAAAAAAAD

i'm sure the veterans who threw their lives away for your right to vote are thrilled that you made a joke out of it to amuse your internet friends!
ReplyDeletei voted striborg. i'd never heard of him until three days ago. i think he'll bring something good to the office.
ReplyDeletewhat is the point of voting or getting married if you can't make a mockery of it? that said, i took part in my grim civic duty today and voted for striborg.
ReplyDeletei'm with you! in fact, i had a child for a joke! he doesn't know it yet, but it's going to be hilarious when he goes to his first day of school. we taught him to walk backwards and that his name is Smegma.
ReplyDeleteI'm old Striborg.
ReplyDeleteStriborg has to be one of the worst names I've ever heard for a black metal band. It sounds like the name of one of the droids on the hunt for Mike Browning.
ReplyDeleteMike Browning is a neocon
ReplyDeletePete Wentz for Cook County coroner.
