Metal Sludge Gossip Board

In 1980. No internet, not to mention smartphones, dating apps whatsoever.

Grinder lyrics:

"Never straight...
........
Been inclined to wander
Off the beaten track
...........
Grinder
Looking for meat
..............
Refuse to bite the mantrap
Be led to set the snare
I love to have my sight capped everywhere
............
I've held my licence
It came with birth
For self reliance on this earth
..................
Was etched upon in your game
Day of independence
Stamped us like a brand
................
I need room to breathe
...............................

Grinder
Looking for meat"


And then 30 years later:

"Since launching in 2009, Grindr has grown into the largest social networking app for gay, bi, trans, and queer people."


So the question is, did Rob Halford prophesy the future or did the inventores name the app after JP's song?

Isn’t it “refuse to bait the mantrap”?

Rob talks about his grinder app grindr in his second book

Maybe Rob and Grinder (the song) were an inspiration to Grindr (the app)?

That's what I thought too. Maybe the founders were gay metaheads.

Now that Trump's back in office, will we see a Grindher dating app? For the tough, manly heterosexual dudes that pound their womens with no restraint.

There's a lot of masculine energy on Grindr.
