Оxуенный гэг =)) Our Typo Could Be Your Meme: #Fugazi1888
В сентябре 2014 года авторы журнала Spin проанонсировали в Твиттере выход пластинки и "немного" ошиблись с датой записи песен, которые на нее войдут. Несмотря на то, что редакторы авторитетного издания быстро спохватились и извинились перед читателями за допущенную опечатку, что-то исправлять уже было поздно. В Твиттере появился хэштег #fugazi1888, с помощью которого фанаты Fugazi принялись упражняться в остроумии, причем вместо едких и саркастичных, как ожидалось, высказываний, появилось множество хороших, просто отличных шуток, обыгрывающих биографии музыкантов, содержание песен, да и просто исторических фактов. Мы выбрали самые смешные твиты, абсолютное удовольствие для тех, кто знает английский:
"Я люблю слушать только их самые-самые ранние вещи"
"А я люблю раннее творчество Яна - Miner Threate"
"Круто! В любом случае, всё, что было записано после 1892 - дерьмо!"
"Уж лучше #Fugazi1888, чем #Fugazi1488, особенно с их странными прическами..."
"#Fugazi1888 - это клёво конечно, но куда круче #MinorThreat1880 и их выступления совместно с Женским христианским союзом трезвости"
"Блин, как же долго я ждал нашумевший совместный проект Маккея и Чайковского!"
"А Стравинский настолько тащился от Fugazi, что даже свое самое знаменитое произведение назвал в честь первой группы Ги Пиччиотто!" переводчика]
"Ударная установка Брендана включала в себя реальный колокол Свободы"
"Басовая партия из Waiting room сыграна на свистульке"
"А с какого альбома песня "Great Constable"?"
"Дайте мне лекарство (от различных инфекций, поскольку пенициллин еще не изобрели)"
"1888 - канадец Джеймс Нейсмит увидел, как Ги Пиччиотто лезет во фруктовую корзину в десяти футах над землей. Через три года он изобрел баскетбол!"
"Fugazi брали за билет 5 баксов? Неудивительно, почему Маккей стал миллионером!"
"Ну, если билет стоил 5$, только элита могла позволить себе увидеть их живьем!"
"Плата за вход на их концерты была 5 шиллингов тогда"
"Фигня, я был на их концерте в 1887 всего за 3 шиллинга!"
"Оказывается, фильм "Инструмент" Джема Коена - всего-навсего римейк хронофотографий Этьена-Жюль Маре"
"Эй, хватит вальсировать! Да, я к вам обращаюсь! Валите отсюда со своим гребаным полонезом!"
"Теперь вопрос по существу - кто первым расскажет Маккею про #Fugazi1888 и насколько ему будет пофиг?"
When they lose songs, they really lose them well.
Well, there were a lot of temperance songs to choose from.
Fugazi not capable of reuniting but capable of time travel apparently

Better #Fugazi1888 than #Fugazi1488, especially with those haircuts.
Pre-pre-pre-hardcore
I only really liked their really, really early stuff.
I prefer Ian's early stuff: Miner Threate
Sure, #Fugazi1888 was great, but I prefer #MinorThreat1880and their performances with the Women's Christian Temperance Union.
Pretty edgy of them to do minstrel show music
great! everything after 1892 was crap anyway.
been waiting a looong time for that rumored mackaye-tchaikovsky collab
Stravinsky, of course, was so enamored of Fugazi that he named his most famous piece after Guy Picciotto's first band
1888: James Nasmith sees Guy Picciotto climb into a peach basket suspended 10 ft in the air. 3 years later, basketball invented.

What? On fife and drum?
Wow, was it produced by Edison?
That's some hardcore anti-Grover Cleveland shit
Has anyone made a "This tis not a Fugazi blouse" joke yet?

I am a lad of impeccable patience.

"Waiting Room" bassline played on a penny whistle
My time is akin to water flowing down a spout
Yeah, it's a wax cylinder of Ian MacKaye yelling at Quakers not to dance for about an hour.
No waltzing, hey yeah I'm talking to you! Go somewhere else with your fucking polonaise!
I can imagine Ian MacKaye calling out angry skinheads in the crowd saying they look like they just want some custard.
"Though supposeth though be tough, but I saw thou partake of iced cream prior, Sir."
Can't wait to hear Great Grandpa Ian Mackaye's anti government protest songs about the Great Blizzard of 1888!
"Your eyes like crashing carriages / Fixed in stained glass"
"Doth Thou Like Me"
Ian MacKaye gets mad when Benjamin Harrison uses "Do You Like Me" as theme song for a presidential campaign rally.
What Fugazi album had the track "Great Constable" on it?
"You'd make a fine constable"
"you make a great pinkerton"
I must say, I do believe one would make a most spiffing gendarme
We need an instrument / To take a measurement / Of the luminiferous aether

A Steady Diet of Nothing but Hardtack
As renowned as they were, even as late as 1895 people their audience were shouting for Minor Threat songs taking "all ages" to a whole new level
Admission to their shows was 5¢ back then.
"Our shows will never cost more than a five-penny copper piece, consarnit!"
Whatever, I saw Fugazi in 1887 for a mere three shillings
Of course, the $5 ticket price meant only the moneyed elite could afford to see Fugazi live.
Fugazi was charging $5 for a show in 1888? No wonder Ian MacKaye is like a billionaire.
back then there were way more scalpers at their shows
I'm probably gonna get this headline tattooed on my forearm
Now the real question: Who will be the first to tell Ian MacKaye about #fugazi1888 and how little will he care?
