  • okay so the question is how do i --- i'm assuming you're asking me mostly

  • cause I'm Sara

  • there is a song called "creeping out sara" that a band NOFX wrote

  • and the song, um...

  • you know, on a surface level, i found it kind of offensive because the

  • implication was that tegan and i are incestuous which i find deeply deeply

  • horrifying

  • and disrespectful but

  • the truth is that the conversation that he's describing in the song actually

  • happened.

  • he did creep me out and he and i had a long conversation backstage at a festival in germany

  • and um, not a

  • totally a consensual conversation. he kind of came

  • came up to me at an internet cafe backstage at a festival and i was

  • with a friend and we were doing, you know, whatever, and

  • he just told us all about his

  • he told us all about himself and mostly it had to do with sex, and um, and involved

  • interest in the BDSM community and having a sex dungeon

  • and

  • haha yeah

  • she said sex dungeon

  • just doing my emails and just had to listen to him talk while

  • while also swigging from a red wine bottle, but anyway

  • it was cute

  • it was cute how he was like that but

  • i mean the song is - i mean how do i feel about it, i mean, i think he's

  • he's pretty offensive but he's also, he's fat mike. that's how he is.

  • that's sort of his MO

  • uh...

  • i don't know what else to say about it. i don't want to fight him or anything

  • i think he understood that we didn't totally love the track

  • afterwards i did talk with him a little bit. he was still on tour when it came out and

  • everybody was like, NOFX dissing tegan and sara! and he was horrified

  • he and i talked about it

  • quite a bit and he released a statement

  • we love you guys

  • we are huge fans. the whole sentiment of the song is supposed to be making fun of myself

  • i'm disgusting. i'm gross.

  • and um

  • we talked a lot about the

  • fact that people of course were gonna miss that point and instead focus on the

  • incest

  • part and the dildo part and the gay part

  • all the rest of it, and you know, he wrote a statement, so

  • i used to listen to NOFX. it was really hard for me, because i was like, NOFX is awesome! so.. not anymore.

okay so the question is how do i --- i'm assuming you're asking me mostly
