You mean like the song Bad Company on the album Bad Company by the band Bad Company?

I don't know what eponymous means so I'm guessing here.

The band: Bad Company
The album: Bad Company
The song: Bad Company

Or perhaps the two back to back threads above.

Pratt, you aint' gonna beat me on that one. I heard the album rock DJ say:"That was Bad Company by Bad Company from the album Bad Company" far too many times in my yoot.

Plus the album cover was cool.

what's just the right time to skip out that's pushing it but not pushing it too much?

It's of course a popular thread elsewhere.

Favorite one I was reminded of was Talk Talk/Talk Talk/Talk Talk.

Edit: Except i now see the song was first featured on The Party's Over.

You can't trust anything you see on the internet these days.

legendary Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio (and Steven Segal riding the thing???) broke down a cockfighting ring with a goddamn, real live TANK

holy shit

“When the tank came in and pushed the wall over and you see what's in there, and all it is, is a bunch of chickens,” Ross said.
In a massive show of force on Monday, the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant and arrested the homeowner, Jesus Llovera, on charges of suspected c0ckfighting.

Seth Davis is Lanny Davis's kid?

Detroit almost lost the same % of population as New Orleans did last decade, without the excuse of being partially destroyed by a massive natural disaster

What a pit

Rock you like a hurricane?

(That would make a good thread, too. Worst rhymes in rock songs.)

You could make the argument that the auto industry's mismanagement has been a disaster.

I could also make the argument that the lamppost owes me twenty bucks, but doing so would be crazy.

Or that they based their entire economy around one industry.

Yeah, but every county that borders Wayne County (which includes Detroit) added population over the past decade, and Wayne County outside of Detroit gained about 80,000 residents.

The number of people (net) leaving Detroit in the past ten years, 237,493, is larger than the population of any other city in Michigan.

The auto industry has hurt Detroit, but there appears to be a lot of Detroit specific suckage that is compounding the woes.
