Billy Corgan

January 3rd, 2008 by Bill Corbett · 19 Comments

wanted me to tell you “good night” for him.

Billy Corgan also wanted to ask you, if you have some spare time tomorrow, if you could help him get the triangle off his head.

If not, Billy Corgan says, no problem, he’ll try to find someone else.

Mainly, he (Billy Corgan) just wanted to say goodnight.

UPDATE TO POST: Many thanks to our friend NotMerrittStone, who provides an Atari-based explanation for Billy Corgan’s head triangle in Comments below…

Oh, and regarding the McKellen-Carey buddy blockbuster pitches: some excellent ideas so far. Remember to keep to under 50 words, as my attention span is shorter than a squirrel’s. And think buddy movie. Think franchise. Think Hollywood, though I know it hurts. Oh. Believe me, I know.

I’ll announce the winner tomorrow night, after consulting with Billy Corgan*.

(*Who says goodnight, by the way.)

    Whatever, Bill…

    Billy Corgan never sleeps.

    And the triangle? It’s a pie-piece. He’s a big Trivial Pursuit fan, obviously.

    This is part of an interview recently from Billy “just a rat in a cage” Corgan he has replaced his name with Kevin for some reason?

    Personally, I don’t think Kevin realized I was serious at the time, and he said sure. The rest is captured on his head and on photographs. As you can see, the mark is very visible. Many people at work witnessed that mark, and even Kevin’s parents noticed it without him drawing attention to it when he went home. His mom thought he hit his head on something and thought it was a bruise. This event lead to a friendly conversation with his father on what had occurred.

    And here I thought people look more creepy when their head resembles a ping pong ball…

    Wow. In his defense, blue hair and feathers are tough to pull off. Though I think it’d look quite dashing on you, Bill.

    Do the BIM! (If you are not currently wearing a BIM mark, I insist you watch “The Apple” immediately! It is now a government mandate that everyone wear a stylish BIM mark)

    After negotiating with John Lassiter, we were able to accommodate him…

    No, he needs that triangle as a “this side up” type of symbol. You know, because so many people seem mistake him for a complete ass. No idea why.

  • 10 Bill Corbett on Jan 4, 2008 at 6:45 am

    Wow. Even Corgan doesn’t deserve that.

  • 11 Botchinator on Jan 4, 2008 at 7:35 am

    He still needs braces.

  • 12 NotMerrittStone on Jan 4, 2008 at 8:18 am

    I thought it was common knowledge that Billy had magic Atari powers.

    (he also used to be a little boy)

  • 13 Edgewriter on Jan 4, 2008 at 8:20 am

    The triangle is actually an abbreviated arrow pointing to the place where he surgically had his penis relocated.

  • 14 torgosPizza on Jan 4, 2008 at 9:24 am

    Now THAT’s funny.

  • 15 Bill Corbett on Jan 4, 2008 at 9:36 am

    Agreed, very funny.

    NotMerrittStone, you might if I post that in an update?

    (assuming it’s your work)

  • 16 Bill Corbett on Jan 4, 2008 at 9:51 am

    Erm… I meant to write:

    “you mind if I post that”

  • 17 NotMerrittStone on Jan 4, 2008 at 10:19 am

    Of course I don’t mind if you post it. (but I may might)

    That five minutes of photoshoppery will have been the most productive thing I’ve done at work all day, so get as much mileage out of it as you can.

    It’s just the beginning of Billy Corgan’s plan to convert his chrome dome into a geodesic one.

  • 19 wakachiwaka on Jan 4, 2008 at 4:54 pm

    You’ve turned him into Moby.
