A Date With Rosie Palms is no longer a trope


* ADateWithRosiePalms:
** In one particularly memorable turn of phrase, Jello compares shooting a gun to masturbation.
--->I wish I was down in El Salvador
--->Where I could jerk off with my gun and KillThePoor
** Jello has said "Bruce's Diary" from his collaboration with Music/{{Nomeansno}} is his ''Film/TerminalCityRicochet'' character's internal monologue while he masturbates.
** The creepy TSA employee who narrates "The Lighter Side of Global Terrorism" is stated to do this on breaks.

Not So Different has been renamed, and it needs to be dewicked/moved


* NotSoDifferent: "Caped Crusader" swipes some of its lines from 9/11 terrorist Mohammed Atta and some from then-Attorney General John Ashcroft, and in the liner notes invites the listener to "spot the difference".

* CompetitionFreak: "The Ghost of Vince Lombardi" [[{{Deconstruction}} deconstructs]] and criticizes this mindset, claiming it's "poison" that permeates American society and damages kids worse than TV or video games.
-->The ghost of Vince Lombardi, where dirty tricks are cool\\
Someone's gotta win and someone's gotta lose\\
The ghost of Vince Lombardi rules the marketplace\\
He who dies with the most toys wins\\
This is why this country has no soul, has no sense of community

While undoubtedly best known as the frontman of HardcorePunk legends Music/DeadKennedys, '''Jello Biafra''' (born Eric Boucher, June 17, 1958) has had quite a career since leaving the band as well. He has amassed quite a large number of spoken-word albums about political activism as well as a large body of recorded music that mostly serves as {{Spiritual Successor}}s to the Kennedys' output. His music recordings, both as collaborations with other artists (Music/{{DOA}}, Music/{{Nomeansno}}, Music/MojoNixon, Music/{{Melvins}}, most of Music/{{Ministry}} as Lard, members of Steel Pole Bath Tub and Grong Grong as Tumor Circus) and with his own band the Guantanamo School of Medicine, have made him a respected elder statesman in the world of punk (a condition he even comments on in the song "Enchanted Thoughtfist"). While his former bandmates from the Kennedys have evolved into the living incarnation of MoneyDearBoy, half-heartedly playing songs "from the good old days about how bad the good old days were", Biafra continues to evolve and to produce some [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic awesome new tunes]].

* 2020 - ''Tea Party Revenge Porn''



* AlbumTitleDrop: Most of the albums avert it. ''White People and the Damage Done'' plays it straight, and ''The Sky Is Falling and I Want My Mommy'' ''almost'' plays it straight (the lyrics say "The sky is ''melting'' and I want my mommy" instead). ''Last Scream of the Missing Neighbors'' is more subtle about it; "Full Metal Jackoff" gives the quote listed below under CleanupCrew, then asks:

** With Music/MojoNixon he covered Darryl Cherney's "Where Are We Gonna Work (When the Trees Are Gone?)", Fred Kirby's "Atomic Power", Music/PhilOchs' "Love Me, I'm a Liberal" (with some new lyrics to make it more current to TheNineties), the Goldcoast Singers' novelty hit "Plastic Jesus", the traditional songs "Will the Circle Be Unbroken?" (with new lyrics as "[[CrossesTheLineTwice Will the Fetus Be Aborted]]?") and "Old Joe Clark" (with new lyrics as "Let's Go Burn Ole Nashville Down"). There was also a "cover" of Billy Ray Cyrus' "Achey Breaky Heart" entitled "Achey Rakey Heart", which as one might expect is more of a {{Parody}} and TakeThat; however, note that this last song is actually credited to Eugene Chadbourne & Evan Johns, despite appearing on Jello and Mojo's single for "Will the Fetus Be Aborted".
