    Perfume is a weird book. I read it all in one day, it was entertaining, but the ending was moronic.

    Do heroin addicts really read a lot? He was high out of his mind 24/7, he probably just heard about people reading this stuff or maybe just skimmed them.

      He did his reading as an edgy teenager in between smoking weed under overpasses and having sex with mentally stunted latchkey braphogs.

          It's insane that some people don't realize this is just a short story he wrote, every single person from his hometown will confirm this never happened

            Sounds like cope coming from someone who idolizes a moron fricker to me.

            I don't idolize Cobain, but you're a fool if you think that story is true, it's just Kurt writing a story lambasting his hometown he hated, the title of the story in his journal is "Aberdeen"

            >absolutely no proof of what he's saying
            It's literally presented as true by the authoritative documentary about his life. Again, this just sounds like cope from a guy who idolizes a moron fricker.

      Most of the ones I've known read a lot. I'm not going to romanticize addiction but the image of the addict is skewed and many of them are intelligent and sensitive, which probably leads to the drugs as much as similar childhoods do. Someone made a thread in IQfy and got ripped for watching cartoons instead of doing drugs and reading indie comics with other degenerates as a teenager. The lit circles aren't much different.

      Plenty of great writers were opium users which is a poppy drug nearly as strong. And Burroughs of course was a heroin addict

      He was a songwriter so it doesn't surprise me if he was an avid reader.

    Good thing he died in his 20s because he never grew out of being a teenager.

    Is it true he was killed by his wife?

      Well, he tried to commit suicide by pill overdose a month before the shotgun finished him, and the last time he was with Kris Novaselic (the bassist he founded the band with), he punched him out because he *really* didn't want to go to rehab, and when he got back to town, he had his buddy Dylan Carson buy him the shotgun that was used the next day, so you tell me

      Salinger fought at D-Day and helped liberate Dachau, he was more of a man than you will literally ever be.

        Wasn't talking about Salinger the man, was talking about the emo moody gays (like Cobain) who brooded over his glorified YA book and get inspired by it to commit acts of violence like killing John Lennon.

          John Lennon was a phony though.

    I like Nirvanas music but I don’t like Kurt as a person. He would never survive in the manosphere dominated zoomer zeitgeist. I’m old enough to remember when Kurt died, showing my age here.

      On that subject can you imagine him and Andrew Tate berating each other on social media? I don’t like Tate all that much either but it would be hilarious to witness.

        He'd probably be just as bad as the broad who inspired him to write Smells Like Teen Spirit (there's even a trannie in her band): https://youtu.be/vLGFyxAP0QE?si=Afyh1zIG4xHKsmqB

      I was 17 when he died I liked them well enough but thought Kurdt was overrated. I was more a Soundgarden fan.

    Why did he like paglia (feminist anti feminist) but also the scum manifesto

      Oddly inconsistent selections. Had a few musically complex tunes showing some depth/originality. Mixed druggie bag all around it would appear.

      His wife was a nepo-baby industry plant with deep Old Hollywood connections and stood to lose millions in the divorce Cobain had spoken about pursuing with multiple 3rd parties.

        Super weird then that she would save his life when he tried to overdose in Rome one month before

    The intern at MTV who come up with this list for them had good taste.
