NEW DU RULEZ!!!!!!
Until you have 1000 posts to your name you are NOT allowed to snark on the band RUSH. You may snark on Rush Limbaugh though.

4. Geddy cries for their souls.
Not yours though. He dreams of the day when he faces you in Celebrity Jeopardy and crushes you.

In fact, I smell a new chapter of Tales of WTFery coming...

6. Ok, I may be new here but
I'm not sure that you get to just call "New Rulez!!" to protect Rush from nubbie posters.

Because certain international treasures warrant protection
Just think of it as good stewardship.

You've been here on the DU three times longer than I have. Ergo, thou art ancient. Quod Erratic Demonstranded.

15. New Rule:
Less than 1000 posts means no quoting studies disparaging the Rush.

So it is written, so it shall be.

18. Just like the song, Lessons, from Rush:
You know we've tolled you before
But you didn't pay us then
So you still question why
No! You didn't listen again
You didn't listen again, asswipe!


I think that was Neil's original version.

13. Just ewwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!
Rush has never claimed to be bigger than the Beatles unless you're thinking of the concept that Rush Limbaugh weighs more than all the Beatles combined.

35. Thank for the offer but
I'm grandfathered because I was snarking prior to "New Rulez" being posted.

Snark. Snark. Snark.

39. I'm going to dare to flaunt the rules.
Rush was an excellent band for about seven or eight albums, a period of maybe fifteen years. Then they started downhill and are currently but a shadow of their former greatness.

One should own 2112 and Caress of Steel. One could easily possess the first album, the two mentioned, Fly by Night, Hemispheres, A Farewell to Kings, Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and Signals and be quite happy with Rush. If one were to buy a more recent album, not so much.

That's my opinion and I am sticking to it.

Also, Dr. Strange, whose poopy-headedness is not known to me (id est, he may or may not be a poopy-head, I cannot say), was a mediocre comic book. There, I said it!
