Ted Nugent Talks That Way Even When Buying Socks

SAGINAW, MI—According to JC Penney men’s-department sources, rocker Ted Nugent talks that way even when buying socks. “What color socks do I want? I want every damn color, plus a whole bunch of colors that don’t even exist,” Nugent told sales associate Jonathan Alexander. “Life is too short, man. Whether it’s socks or shoes or whatever, you gotta bite into life like it’s a great big ol’ hunk of bison. Otherwise, you wake up and suddenly—poof—you’re fat and old, and you never had any friggin’ fun. And if you’re not having fun, you may as well move to Iraq or Cuba or some other hellhole where there ain’t no good times to be had.” Nugent added that that’s the way he sees it, and that if you don’t like it, you can kiss his lily-white ass.
