Glad to see John Henry has invested his money in yet another "Boston's 25 Best Burgers" for the 300th time this year over at Boston.com.

You think people only come to this site to see me break Doug Bennett's balls? Arguments about bike lanes keep clothes on Adam's kids back and food on his table. I personally love seeing the bike-vs-car arguments here, as I take comfort in knowing that it will allow this site to stay live and give me a chance to continue being the asshole you all know and love.

This story is crazy. I'm assuming the murder was over drugs, or is that not yet known?

I think your comment only works if "dismembered" in this context could be confused for a noun, which doesn't seem to be the case to me.

When is society going to stop condoning the behavior of rappers and bestowing them the undeserved title of "artists" and start recognizing them as the socially damaging anti-role models they are?

Millions of dollars and fame gets thrown at these clowns and people wonder why some kids are so worked up into thinking criminality is cool and violence is perfectly normal?

The world was a better place when youth was into jazz, soul, and rock & roll and not this narcissistic anti-hero worshiping garbage.

that the fact that suspects - excuse me - "persons of interest" (as the PC crowd calls them) may be "aspiring rappers" (or any other occupation for that matter) is totally irrelevant information in stories like ths one.

Let's condemn Clint Eastwood for Dirty Harry, Sylvester Stallone for Rambo, James Spader for the Blacklist and Anthony Hopkins for Hannibal Lecter, mmmm-kay?

Why would any aspiring rapper take a nom de guerre that makes him sound like the gangsta version of Clippy, that annoying Windows assistant applet?

Could this senseless death have been prevented if there wasn't an implied dialogue box hanging over Clipz's life.

"It looks like you're trying to rap. Would you like help?

  • Yes, help me lay down some dope rhymes
  • No, I'll generate my own phatness
  • Check here to dismember a dude who made fun of my lame stage name
