Speaking of wikipedia, let's get their thoughts on cunt "Cunt is also used as a derogatory epithet referring to people of either sex. This usage is relatively recent, dating from the late nineteenth century."
"Reflecting different national usages, cunt is described as "an unpleasant or stupid person" in the Compact Oxford English Dictionary, whereas Merriam-Webster has a usage of the term as "usually disparaging and obscene: woman",[4] noting that it is used in the U.S. as "an offensive way to refer to a woman";[5] and the Macquarie Dictionary of Australian English gives "a contemptible person.""
My research suggests that Merriam-Webster's sexism is the true evil here.
Not to get back on topic but what would you rather have in 2015.

I did not write that word. I explained how the term n$@&at is used in my personal life. And apologized when it when construed as offensive on inforoo. Your Wikipedia link doesn't mean shiz. Especially when you are quoting way harsher of a word then I ever said and apologized for. Honestly, did not anticipate such backlash which is why I though it ok. I'll admit, it was a lapse of judgement. Now link my a wiki page to judgement quick so I know it's true meaning
If you want to drop the discussion, drop it. Asking for a Wkipedia link instead of an UrbanDictionary link is, well, asking for a Wikipedia link. It's hard to apologize when you're still being argumentative and catty.
When a word has such powerful negative connotations as the word 'nigger', you don't suddenly fix it by using the word 'nigrat', which, being a combination of the words 'nigger' and 'rat', might even be more offensive, not less. In general, though, you can expect variations on the word 'nigger' to be as unacceptable in casual conversation as the word itself.
Back to MMJ -- I gave Circuital a listen last night, and it's way better than I remembered. I'm actually pretty excited now for a new album/tour. Give these guys a LN stage set and let em blow us all away.
More offensive? When the word rat involved? I disagree. But like I said, I never meant offense. So, sorry.
I did turn on okonokos last night, I'd like any shape or form of mmj on the farm

Not to get back on topic but what would you rather have in 2015.
1. MMJ Headlines Sunday night (have to stop within reason on their time slot) 2. MMJ Late Night What- (play forever) 3. MMJ Pre-headline again AND Jim James curates another superjam.
Easily either #1 or #2. I can't decide from there. I prefer that they HL to eliminate LN conflicts. But by Sunday I'm pretty worn out and usually leave before the headliner. So I'm going with #2.
MMJ featuring Wayne Coyne at One Big Holiday Hard Rock. The sound is a bit distorted due to being so close.
It's fairly expensive of a trip. About the same I'd expect to spend on an RV and VIP Roo tickets. That bring said: worth it?
If I had to choose between One Big Holiday and Bonnaroo Roll Like A Rockstar, I'd choose One Big Holiday. Admittedly, I haven't experienced RLAR, but here's my reasoning.
1. The location. I know the farm is special and has that magical feeling but Mexico is beautiful. If you don't even leave the resort you're still right on the Gulf. The Hard Rock is huge and it's literally paradise. There's pools and jacuzzis everywhere, plus their own beach. They even have a pretty cool water slide. It's really paradise.
2. The weather. Of course this could change but last year it was perfect, not too hot or too cold. I think it rained a bit the last night but we stayed in an outdoor jacuzzi enjoying cocktails during that time. I wouldn't worry about too cold but if I'd did happen to get too hot there's air conditioned areas and endless swimming pools to cool down in. The farm has been great the past two years but who knows what's next. Could be a mud or a dust Fest or it might be hot and miserable.
3. Intimacy and the crowd. The feeling of being part of 90k people at Roo is awesome. The energy at some of the shows is unmatched. With that many people there is a very diverse crowd. This part I don't enjoy very much. I prefer being around like-minded people. I don't mind diversity when it comes to culture, race, even age. I just don't enjoy diverse mentalities. I wanna be around positive people that have respect for each other. Unfortunately it seems that Roo has been attracting more and more douchebags. Chalk it up to whatever you like, but the crowd in Mexico was amazing. There was less than 2500 people all there for the same thing. There weren't any douchebags pushing through the crowd because you didn't need to. You don't have to wait at the stage all day for a good spot because with under 2500 people, every spot is good.
4. Food and drink. All inclusive compared to $4 soda and $6 beers. Plus overpriced carnival food(some was pretty good) on the Farm. Of course if you don't mind walking to and from centeroo to your camp it's not too expensive, but it's a hassle. In Mexico, you have four bottles of liquor on tap in your room plus a fridge stocked with soda, beer, and water. If you wanna chill in your room there's also 24 hour room service, which comes in very handy, lol. As soon as you get off the bus their putting cocktails in your hands(plural on purpose). It's even a party at check in. Now you explore the resort where you'll find about a dozen fully stocked bars with swim up pool bars and about ten different restaurants all with different menus, from buffet style, to Brazillian steakhouse, to Asian, to French, etc. And the bars have some good top shelf shit. I was drinking Remy Martin VSOP which costs about $12-$15 a shot where I live.
5. The music. If you're a fan of MMJ or any of the other bands you don't wanna miss this. MMJ put on 3 unique epic sets. They also had members of other bands join them which made for some cool collaborations. Bob Weir and Wayne Coyne were awesome. Plus this year there's a Biz Markie DJ set? I know I wanna be part of the "you got what I need" singalong dance party.
6. Excursions and extras. I don't know your budget but there is some awesome excursions to choose from. Xel ha was awesome! It's like a marine park. There's a giant lagoon in the middle that you can snorkel down with stops for cliff diving, zip lining, places to just chill, plus bars and restaurants everywhere which is all inclusive when you pay for this excursion. And the food is really good. There's so much to do there it would take you at least 3 days to do it all and there still might be more to explore. Besides this place there's a ton of other excursions. When you get your room they give you resort credits which can be used for the spa and some drink upgrades. Not only are you staying in paradise but they're paying for you to get pampered. An hour massage after a few nights of partying was amazing.
To sum all this up, yes it's worth it, damn worth it. Around $2000 for 4 unforgettable nights in paradise? Yes please.

I hadn't considered it that way. You make some good points. Something to start saving for 2016. Enjoy your trip. Please take some photos and share.
Regardless of their placement on the official line up, if MMJ is at Bonnaroo then they are a headliner for my personal schedule. I think of headliners as can't miss shows for the weekend and MMJ is that for me!
Not to get back on topic but what would you rather have in 2015.
1. MMJ Headlines Sunday night (have to stop within reason on their time slot) 2. MMJ Late Night What- (play forever) 3. MMJ Pre-headline again AND Jim James curates another superjam.

Jay Z was billed 4th and did late night what. I'm fully aware how unique that circumstance was but the fact that it's happened before means we shouldn't rule it out.
Then that settles it, pre-headliner. I don't get why a LN which is out of question? Flips played there the last couple of times and they're on the same level IMO.
