From The TMI Files: Keith Richards Admits Snorting Dad's Ashes

I liked this story more when it was Keith DENYING that he snorted his dead dad's ashes. Now that he's admitted it, I'm just skeeved. I mean, I know that he has bad-assery down to a finely honed art, but snorting your dead father's remains? For realz? That's not bad-ass. That's just gross.

His detailed admission of how and why it happened doesn't help matters:

“I opened my dad's ashes and some of them blew out over the table, just because of the suction of the lid, you know what I mean? I looked at my dad's ashes down there and — what am I gonna do? Do I desecrate them with a dustbin and broom? So I wet me (sic) finger and I shoved a little bit of Dad up me (sic) hooter."

I dunno. Is the greater desecration really tidying up the ashes with the sweep of a broom, or is it shoving 'em up your hooter with a wet finger? There's a strong argument to be made that doing anything with remains that involves wet fingers and hooters - that even mentioning the remains of the deceased in the same sentence as 'wet finger,'  'shoved' and 'hooter' - is really disturbingly desecratory. And gross. Did I say gross?

*shudder*

Isn't this an old story. And from what I heard, it wasn't true either. I remember reading that he tends to make things up when talking to the press.

More than anything else, I want to know why in the hell he poses with his shirt off. Does he not realize he looks like one of those dried apple dolls that were popular about 30 years ago? Seriously - the man has more fault lines and cracks in his crust than California.

OMG! Gasping for breath I'm laughing so hard.
'wet finger,' 'shoved' and 'hooter'
"fault lines and cracks in his crust". Is it time for a drink yet?

Magpie - the old story was that he denied the rumor that he'd snorted his dad. The new story is that he now admits to - or, perhaps, just wants to the world to think that he's proud of - huffing his pop. Which, either, way, BIZARRE.

I made an LOLZ for this a while back and my buddy, Jason, posted it to a collection of non-cat LOLZ we were fooling with:
