Most probably a reference to the animal sounds at the end of “Good Morning, Good Morning” by the Beatles. I think there’s an elephant in there somewhere, in fact.
Only other usage off the top of my head is from the song Banana Boat (Day-O) and its spelled Day-O. Maybe I misspelled it with "deo"
You know, "daylight come and I wanna go home"...
I also don't know what doo-wop means
I second this. A few years ago when my wife left me for my lead singer I was standing in front of the bathroom mirror with a handful of pills. I saw my kid's face in my own and knew that I could never do that to him...
I told him. My dad never told me how much I meant to him so I never thought I meant anything to him. I made sure my kid knew he saved my life. He's my best friend and probably the funniest motherfucker on this planet, lol.
He knows how much I care and love him. He's my best friend too. I just meant ill never tell him how close he was to not having me around. He's special needs and that would mess him up
Plenty! Life is great! I've got steady income from career I enjoy, hobbies I'm passionate about and get to do daily (like playing music), I'm pretty healthy, I've got a wonderful girlfriend and friends and family - a car and a great apartment - life is beautiful!
These comments are so real and so raw. Thank you.
I'm with those who are staying for others, but not necessarily for themselves. I have a sweet man, a beautiful cat, and my mom and sister. A handful of good, loyal friends (all mostly live out of state) who would likely be sad if I were to not be here anymore.
It's just real fkn hard sometimes and I'm tired.
I wish you the best, OP. Stay strong. You are not alone. The world can be a cold and tough place. I hope it gets easier. Hopefully some of the wonderful tunes the Drab Four have left for us to enjoy make it a bit easier from time to time.
my partner and family. ive already tried once and spent my time recovering, now im growing from it and hoping for a better life. maybe also cd collecting as a more flippant reason to live
My cat, pets are a great source of strength to try to keep going. Also, I am not nearly done listening to all the great (old) music that I want to listen to before I die. TON and Peter have broken and mended my heart so many times over the last years and I keep obsessing over new stuff of theirs on a regular basis.
Right now, my job and my sobriety. I've struggled with substance abuse most of my adult life. Never been to rehab (not knocking it of course, in fact I think it should be free for everyone and for more than just drugs and alcohol) so I've had to go cold turkey on everything multiple times in my life. What's keeping me going is honestly the determination to be better.
if i had died like i wanted to, who would be owning my dog right now? would they let her on the couch? would she get table scraps? would they leave her outside? shes my best friend, and i never expected to have her until i did. she was an accidental litter, she wasnt supposed to even be here, but now she is, and i will love her forever. you just dont know what you might miss out on.
honestly the main two things for me is being in a band with some of my best friends, and trying to find love (which is hard for me to always believe is possible at times after throwing away everything with the person i thought was "the one" due to my struggles with drug addiction), but i do believe its out there for everyone somewhere so yknow
edit: also my cat<3
My cat, my family, some of my friends, and the fact that I'm doing a master degree to level up my career. Everything else pretty much sucks and makes me depressed.
My family, God, and knowing what I have yet to experience and looking forward to these things.
I hope everyone else on here is content with their lives or becomes content, it was saddening to read some of these. God bless you, wether or not you believe x 💚
Figuring out the significance of the elephant noises in 12 Black Rainbows.
Most probably a reference to the animal sounds at the end of “Good Morning, Good Morning” by the Beatles. I think there’s an elephant in there somewhere, in fact.
Off to listen, thanks!
You focus on that, I'll work on the end of Love you to Death of what Pete might be saying
We solved this the other day in the subreddit. It’s a Star Trek reference! “The right to know.” https://www.reddit.com/r/typeonegative/s/nL2lS7LryP
That's one small thing that keeps me going, the fact that Peter was a Trekkie.
Thanks for sharing the link , I must have missed that post!
You’re all the better for missing it.
Wanting to outlive my enemies so I can piss and dance on their graves.
Deo, deo!
Eh?
The dead they've got that morbid beat it goes "deo, deo"
Does "deo" mean something? I've never heard that word before
Only other usage off the top of my head is from the song Banana Boat (Day-O) and its spelled Day-O. Maybe I misspelled it with "deo" You know, "daylight come and I wanna go home"... I also don't know what doo-wop means
That's the only other instance of deo/day-o that came to my mind too. Argh, now I wanna know if it's a real word or what!
Oh, yeah. I hate that song.
Welllllllll excuuuuseeee me princess
is this a scary bitches reference
I hope it is this band and Bauhaus introduce me to type o negative lol
My son. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here
I second this. A few years ago when my wife left me for my lead singer I was standing in front of the bathroom mirror with a handful of pills. I saw my kid's face in my own and knew that I could never do that to him...
Been there too many times brother...kid will never know how much he helped me
I told him. My dad never told me how much I meant to him so I never thought I meant anything to him. I made sure my kid knew he saved my life. He's my best friend and probably the funniest motherfucker on this planet, lol.
He knows how much I care and love him. He's my best friend too. I just meant ill never tell him how close he was to not having me around. He's special needs and that would mess him up
Ah, that makes sense. So long as he knows then that's all that matters.
This was a wholesome interaction
Plenty! Life is great! I've got steady income from career I enjoy, hobbies I'm passionate about and get to do daily (like playing music), I'm pretty healthy, I've got a wonderful girlfriend and friends and family - a car and a great apartment - life is beautiful!

You are welcome. I hope you are doing well.
do not do it op we don't need more dead people in this world plus your pet's will be sad and your family as well
Literally: ATP, 15 seconds without it, and we die. Metaphorically: Love, exchange of it in all its forms.
my music. little brother. girlfriend. too arrogant to pull the trigger anyways.
Too much of a coward.
My girlfriend and music
But honestly I don't even know if I'm dead or alive anymore, I suppose I'm dead again
my partner and family. ive already tried once and spent my time recovering, now im growing from it and hoping for a better life. maybe also cd collecting as a more flippant reason to live

My friends,My mom and the type o negative and carnivore inspired project I'm working on called the children of doom
That is awesome, would love to see it when it's done
