Tell Starving Homeless Children You Hate Them with a $5,000 Portrait of Fred Durst Painted by The Cult’s Billy Morrison
Metal — like all commercial industries — has no shortage of ways for one to waste money. For example, you could cough up $500 for the privilege of not asking Tool if they’re ever going to release a new album, or shell out $2,500 you can not meet Guns N’ Roses, or pay 5¢ to see Thy Art is Murder. All of these purchases send the same message: “I do not care about money.”
Of course, if you really wanna be a fat cat who spits in the mouths of starving third-world children (metaphorically speaking, of course), you can pay The Cult guitarist Billy Morrison five grand for a painting of Limp Bizkit’s Fred Durst. Says Herr Durst via Facebook (and we know that he personally wrote this message, because only a true warrior-poet like Durst would take care to advise people to e-mail someone at his e-mail address):
It is OFFICIAL!

And here’s what this modern masterpiece looks like:
I gotta say, I am DYING to meet the person or persons who purchases one of these. I just can’t fathom of the homo sapien that would willingly put this portrait in his or her home. I seriously thought my dumb cousins in Las Vegas had the tackiest taste of anyone on the planet, but I don’t think they’d touch this one with a ten foot pole. Jesus fucking Christ. This is why the terrorists hate us, people.
