Metal is catharsis, metal is flooring it to “Love Me Like a Reptile” on an open highway, metal is a flailing mosh pit-punch to the eye (and the killer shiner afterward) and, when in the throng of tens or thousands of headbangers, metal is where I find my brothers and sisters, horns up and ready to scream bloody gore. — Lars Gotrich
Meet four people who headbanged and high-fived at Maryland Deathfest.

This Is Why Cats Have 9 Lives of the Day: One life down, eight to go: This 2-month-old kitten was recently found wedged inside a car’s exhaust system, with just its head and a paw sticking out. When the car’s driver realized the animal was still alive, he rushed the part — and kitten — to the local fire department, where the kitten was cut out.
According to fire commander Coronel Candido Cleber:
The kitten was cold and must have climbed into the engine to try to warm up. But when the driver started the engine he was suddenly sucked in. It’s a miracle he was still alive. The driver drove around for hours before deciding to find out what was wrong.
Now for the good news — the kitten had intestinal surgery and is now recovering at a sanctuary in Brazil.

50 Things a Man Does Not Have to Do Before He Dies
42. RUN WITH THE BULLS
Sometimes it’s the fate of a good writer to bear the blame for what he inspires a bunch of idiots to do. Hunter S. Thompson is on the hook for a generation convinced it’s charming to be a drug-addicted asshole. Jack Kerouac spawned a million annoying vagabonds. And then, of course, there’s Ernest Hemingway, who has to answer not only for reams of bad, muscular prose but also for turning the San Fermín festival, celebrated in the town of Pamplona, Spain, into a three-minute institutionalized rite of passage, offering a frisson of real danger to the proceedings without being automatically fatal. It’s worth remembering, though, that courting death is not, ipso facto, cool. If there were a contest in Toledo where you drank a bottle of Drano and saw what happened, would you be proud to tell stories about it over dinner?
Yes! Damn you Hunter for all these druggy assholes.
