Kicked out of the club for pronouncing Lynyrd Skynyrd how it’s spelled

[oldmanpeace]

[keldabekush]

People assume Echo is the straightlaced one but i assume if Fives even implied that he was too boring to do it, Echo would freewheel down the senate dome with a jetpack and a pair of rollerskates with minimal hesitation

fun facts

Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote Sweet Home Alabama in response to Neil Young's song Southern Man, which condemned the racism and history of slavery in the American south. Lynyrd Synyrd wanted to show rock fans that the south had good things about it as well

The label initially rejected Free Fallin'. Tom Petty waited 6 months then brought it to them again, and they loved it

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man

[atihkinsam]

Dean Winchester is Every Man. And he is not.

He is a Simple Man.

A Beautiful Loser.

He is a Wayward Son. THE Wayward Son.

But then again he is a Squirrel.

An angryabusive Husband(brother).

Every so often, I'll ask myself, "Were the Bad Batch really the ultimate form of Space Rednecks?"

The simple answer? YES. YES THEY ARE.

That's why half of them look white. The Kiwi gods snatched that melanin and cheekbones back when they saw what trashy nonsense these Florida Men of the Republic were up to.

Let's take a quick look from one of their first introductions in The Clone Wars' season 7 episode: "A Distant Echo".

Barely a minute long, and the following redneck nonsense happens:

Clone Force 99, Rex, and Anakin Skywalker (who looks actually happy to be with these dingbats) fly into some absolute garbage dump of a planet that has all the raw grace of Port Arthur, Texas.

They arrive in their crappy second-hand work truck that's filled with leftover food, gun posters, other guns, a Twi'Lek Playmate of the month, and who knows what else. Notice Rex refuses to take a seat in that dump.

"I done heard that folks round here ain't civilized and they do worship the devil or something. Check it out!" - Tech.

Giant critter and its illiterate, backwoods, hillbilly owner knock their car over.

Everyone runs out to gawk.

Everyone whips out their guns.

Hunter and Wrecker literally yells at said giant critter to get off the car and are stymied when Anakin tells everyone to put the guns down.

Of course Crosshair shoots the critter while Tech helps him scope it out.

And Hunter goes for a drag race while cheering.

My neck is significantly redder after writing this out.

Ronnie Van Zant wrote the lyrics to Freebird in under 5 minutes

Robert Plant could never remember all the lyrics to Stairway to Heaven. During concerts, the band's manager would hold up cue cards with the lyrics on them
