22. Over Me - The Toxic Avenger
"Okay, I need to dress up like the Toxic Avenger. Better go rub some dirt on myself. But first I'll grab a shower." That's some really stellar planning there Quinn. Further note: my beard now has rocks in it. This is not okay. I'm not okay with this general situation. I wish I could plausibly claim that what I'm doing here is art because then I could say I'm suffering for my art, but I've lived with an artist and I'm neither arting nor suffering, I'm just an idiot who rubbed mud into his face and then regretted it because of course I did, what's not to regret in this scenario?
Toxic Avenger is the guy from the Goonies who didn't go on to release Angelic 2 the Core, so who's the real monster here? Troma Entertainment (oh, right, of course, Troma are the real monsters here) made a documentary about him at one point because I guess there's only so many ways you can have Juliet Capulet fuck her dad? Then he was in the Ninja Turtles cartoon I think? I'm fuzzy on the details because I watched a lot of Troma back in the day and that stuff does not do nice things to your head. Be smart, kids, avoid arthouse theatre, just do drugs like normal kids.
I'm cheating a little here since Over Me was released as a double single (Haha! English) with The Mob in 2015, but it was still a promo EP for the 2016 album so fuck it, near enough. I was going to list Kids instead, because boy is Kids great (boy are Kids great? Huh. English), but every time I listen to it I immediately think "How soon can I put on Over Me" so honestly it's the clear winner here.
Real talk though: how the god did that kid google that? What do you even type in? I guess "22nd Best Song of 2016" would work.
