The truly weird aren't sympathetic weirdos like Claypool. You have genuine psychos like Cardi B or Beiber in the music industry that really take the cake and are certified batshit crazy. Those are the one we need to worry about.
I had a patient about 6-7 years ago and as we’re talking I asked him what kind of work he did. He said, “I’m in charge of security for Oprah.” Obviously I was pretty impressed and we talked about that for a while. I then asked what he did before that. He said, “I was head of security for Prince”. I asked him what Prince was like. He looked me dead in the eye and said without hesitating, “that’s the craziest MF on the planet. I’ve never dealt with someone so fucking crazy before.” He said he quit with about 2 months left on the tour, said it was either that or beat his ass and ruin his resume. Lol.
It's him and it's not even close if you look up the stuff he did, not even counting the criminal stuff
Mike patton, you gotta be off your fucking rocker to create the masterfully composed music of fantomas
I saw Claypool with Oysterhead back in July...damn those 3 can play some crazy shit. When it comes to weird, Bjork wrote the book. I still find a young Bjork kinda cute though.
I think with those two and others like them it’s less weird and more IQ challenged. The low IQ twits who think they’re brilliant are the ones to keep an eye on.
If we’re not talking strictly those still drawing breath, I think g.g. allin takes the cake, the ice cream, and all the presents.
