Another eerie work, this time about everyone's favorite pervert - Jeffrey Dahmer.

Brandes then was leaved to bleed to death in a bathtub while Meiwes was reading a Star Trek book. Brandes got only Schnapps and Ibuprofein to help the pain. After 8 hours of bleeding Brandes was still alive and Meiwes had to stab his throat in order to kill him. Meiwes then ate Brandes's flesh during the following year. Meiwes has described the taste: "It tastes like pork, bit more harsh, substantial". Meiwes filmed everything and the ...more
Name says it all.
This song sounds so utterly retarded yet is so hilariously disturbing

This is about Charles Manson and his followers.
