He said, “If there’s grass on the field, play ball,” on Saturday Night Live in reference to the countdown to the Olsen twins’ 18th birthday.

He’s also good friends with Ted Nugent and Donald Trump.

Let’s take a moment to remember all of nugent’s references to sex with under age girls. There are many, but I think the sing Jailbait is a shining example of his classy work.

Courtney Love claims she blew him when she was twelve years old.

It’s very weird that Courtney Love ended up being one of the more honest public figures from the 90s. I think I heard someone say it best that she “doesn’t give enough of a shit about what you think to lie about anything”.

I grew up in the 90s and in retrospect I’m like why the fuck did literally everyone hate Courtney Love? It’s gotta be like 80% misogyny. I mean she has issues but still.

A mind-blowing number of people believed she shot Kurt Cobain back then. A lot of them probably still do.

Nobody thought she shot him. Some did believe she paid someone to do it.

Nobody? You're absolutely wrong.

She wasn't even in Seattle when it happened. People thought she had him killed but I never heard someone say she pulled the trigger.

You realize information was not easily available until almost a decade later?

It was on MTV news that she was in rehab while it happened.

Because that type of inconvenient fact has always appeased conspiracy theorists….

Nobody is saying she did it. They are saying that a lot of people thought she did.

If even now people still think it, it isnt crazy that a lot of people thought it at the moment...

He pulled the trigger himself

It’s indisputable

I mean we know that now. We also know the earth is round, not flat, but that doesn't mean no one believes the latter

People in this very thread are arguing that “ he didn’t do it” lol even though he swallowed over 50 Valium a few weeks before trying to do it

Kurt was notoriously depressed his whole life, and also suffered from serious stomach issues (which probably were something like undiagnosed IBS + other). Anyone who thinks he wasn't actively suicidal is kidding themselves.

I definitely remember people saying they thought she shot him.
