Reception
In 2004, Revolver Magazine called No Sir, Nihilism Is Not Practical, "Best Post-Hardcore Album of the Year".
gollark: That was fun.
gollark: Oh yes, the traffic lights lased speeding things.
gollark: If I had unreasonable amounts of lasers and somehow access to all roads, I would install laßer turtles on each road with PotatOS Orbital LaserOS™ running on them.
gollark: I had a partnership with Keansia to install laser turtles on their roads as traffic lights, but we had too few and they sometimes destroyed roads.
gollark: ?????¿?
