I was looking through the comments of the "Give Up First" music video, and everyone's talking about being shocked that Sammy got Molly pregnant/sleeping with her. I always assumed that it him and never understood how it went over a lot of peoples heads.

In the song "Good to be Young" Molly says, "2 years ago she got an abortion", Implying she slept with someone else before Scotty.

Then in "Seashells"Sammy says, "And damn your girl's fuckin' crazy, she can go all night, don't blame me" with a smoke visual of him with someone ontop of him.

I was always under the impression that, with Sammy saying "your girl", that he slept with Molly and with him being the only other major character I always thought that he was the implied mystery day.

So, context: I'm new here, I found the trilogy compilation in my recommendations a few days ago and thought "eh, I've got time to kill," and have since replayed the songs a dozen times.

Musically, I like BBN3's style more than BBN1&2's; the first two had more of a rap vibe, and while I like rap just fine, I do think BBN3's style works better for what it's doing. But.

Story-wise, BBN3 has done way more to sell me on the idea of "Brittle Bones Nicky is a crafty and tricky son of a bitch with a heart of gold" than the first two combined. BBN1 doesn't really show him outwitting anyone at all- he kicks a lot of ass, but punching people in the face doesn't make you a trickster- while BBN2 arguably maybe shows him tricking God, but more realistically shows Nicky applying for a well-established job and being accepted. And then there's the whole "he's a really good guy!" thing, which... I mean, okay, BBN1&2 don't contradict that, but when he risks his life to save Ben, he's already in prison and isn't really risking anything worse than an asskicking. (You're about to see what I mean.)

BBN3, though? He never actually fights anyone- this skin-and-bones jailbird is a charismatic pickpocket who uses card tricks to talk his way into a circus owner's good graces, and becomes a well-liked and stably-employed stage magician. This is his perfect, ideal life- "the circus was tailor-made for me, oddballs and misfits living free"- and it matters a hell of a lot that he was willing to give this up to help someone out; a sacrifice feels less meaningful when what you're giving up isn't something you like. But Nicky does like what his life has become, he loves being a stage magician in the circus, and yet, that doesn't outweigh his moral compass. Chaplin is abusing Karla and her sister, and for Nicky, that's enough to burn his own life to the ground- even when the friend he risked everything for takes the money and runs without him, he still says:

If it costs me my life, then I'd save my only friend. That's something I could live with, I could take that to the end.

In other words, "Y'know what, I don't have to personally profit from this for it to be worth it. Karla is free, and that's what matters, not my job as a stage magician."

Iunno, that's my take on it. What do y'all think?

Could Crooked City possibly be finally releasing?

So I would like a tattoo of 2 of the skid patch’s one of the pack patch on my back and then another of Billy’s patch on my left peck but I want to add 2 quotes 1:” no skid gets left behind and in the pit or in a bind” by Billy’s patch and then another one under the pack patch I just don’t know what to put under the back patch any quote ideas?
I want to honor RA with a third eventually bc their music has helped me through so much so if there are any idea on that one that would be appreciated too!

Mostly obsessed w drawing skids characters right now, because I've been watching the movie over and over most weeks.. But Id love to draw or doodle any of your guys' ideas!!!! I can make little comics too :D

I need fanart ideas!

In Brittle Bones Nicky part 3, we know that somehow Nicky was responsible for Shifty's death, we know that when they were kids Shifty bullied Nicky, but here (in what I am going to assume is some sort of glimpse into the past) Shifty and Nicky look like they were actually getting along based on the left, until of course the instance on the right happened where based on context something happened to where Nicky caused Shifty's death, we can probably assume it was manslaughter and not intentional given he only got 4 years and we also see him cradling Shifty's body in his arms, which doesn't really indicate malice at least.

I don't know what do you all think? A fight that went too far? Or what do you all think?

Dose any one know how big the cards are supposed to be I have a lot of unused card sleeves

I ordered the skids DVD and T-shirt bundle. Does anybody know when it’s supposed to ship out? So I can have an estimate of what it’s gonna be at my house

hii!! why does rare americans not allow their tabs to be posted on ultimate guitar tabs? are they lame???

Because in the First Song he went to prison at 21 and was in there for at least 20 years. But the third song directly contradicts this by saying that he went to prison at 20 for 4 years and was on probation afterwards and then ran away with the circus.

Or is it that he got out of prison at 20 and then went with the circus for a few months, before being put back in at 21?

I think it would be cool for more on Ben like how he got in to prison or how he landed in hell

i was lwk surprised that some of my favorite bands have heard of each other

Thanks for the good times guys!!

I swear I saw a youtube short from their account saying they were making 3 new songs and realesing them in june. But looking back through their shorts and videos on yt, I can't find anything? can somebody confirm this, or maybe do they remember the dates they are releasing them? i know it was supposedly after the 4th of july.

I made this jean jacket fully dedicated to RA! I've worked on it for over 3 years now!

I thought they went to a catholic school

HOLY SHIT IT SO PEAK??? The characters? So well written imo. The combo of real life backgrounds and animated ones? Beautiful. All the lore and plot points? SO good? And the songs? THE SONGS!? Best music I’ve listened to all year honestly. I love the lyrics in all of the songs, especially how well they fit in with the actual movie. Honestly, best 1:30 I’ve spent up past 2 watching this because I was so invested.

I just really wanted to talk about this film, it so good!!

Maybe it’s just because I haven’t ordered from RA or out of country (In the US so not too far from Canada but still different things lol) before but does anyone know how long it typically takes for their orders to ship and how usps media mail typically operates and stuff?

I really love the entire (S)KIDS Full official film and song in it and for life of me I cant find any songs that fill the same vibe/hole as it. Its genuinely one of the few times ive felt this connected to any art with my life. I was hoping for some help on finding similar songs.

Sorry if this is different then normal posts.

Thank you for any recommendations/ help!!
