Howdy out there — it’s yet again time to review the best of your contributions to our little corner of the internet. As usual, your reactions didn’t disappoint; so grab a cold beverage and prepare yourself for the commentey goodness ahead of you.

There’s nothing that really makes you want to go out and grab the paper more than a nice juicy scandal, even though not all scandals are created equal. That said, come on, ShawnDC — you don’t know the whole story behind last week’s fire truck kerfuffle: hey, maybe the trucks were used to smuggle sex toys made of a hardened mash of LSD and one billion shredded dollar bills and which would be used to thwack people in the brain. But then again if they were, we’d probably look pretty silly in making this our Comment of the Week:

The firetruck “scandal” is the lamest thing ever. It’s like we were feeling scandal deprived so jumped on the first thing that was a little off. No sex/drugs/murder/bajillions of dollars does not a scandal make.

Yes, but it’s certainly good for plenty of conjecture! Oh well.

After the jump, why homogenized classic rock is no better than homogenized pop, the shocking revelation that the D.C. DMV might be corrupt, and debating what place, if any, politics have in your rock and roll experience.
