"...you nor anyone will ever dictate my actions..."Some people still don't seem to understand this. lulzUnfortunately Axl's meaning is often lost in his incoherent writing style. I'm pretty sure "You will ever dictate my actions" is the opposite of what he wanted to say. That's what happens when you drop out of high school.

That's what happens when you drop out of high school.Sorry to be a pain but that is correct, he is saying no-one will EVER dicate which is right.If he said no-one will NEVER dictate - that is 2 negatives. Agree with you the meaning is lost in his letters - what does he mean about staying away from the microwave!!! How did he come to that over a concert review.

You're right, that would be a double negative ... if he had said "no-one".But he didn't, he said "you nor anyone". And personally I am glad he chooses to rant like this so often, I can think of far worse methods to deal with anger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ppruks Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) haha, I've definitely written e-mails like that, the ones that you write when you're really pissed off and then when you read it a week later or so it sounds like it came from a different person... microwave doors, this is hysterical...

GeetarMikey Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Wasn't even that bad of a review! You can imagine after waiting over 2 hours for them to go on, they last thing you'd want to hear is Axl talking for 15 minutes when they could have played a couple of songs in that time.

Apollo Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Axl Rose = one of the first cupcakes ever! His rants are hilarious, but very immature.Why do you think he always feels so persecuted? Remember Get In The Ring?Don't you think the rock media would be more positive towards him - if he didn't go off on rants like that all the time?
