Borgore Responds to His Week of Bad Press With a Reddit AMA Full of Blowjob Jokes (Duh)

The booty-grabbing mayor of Ratchet City left a trail of sleaze in his wake.

When did Borgore become the human embodiment of a filthy brostep screech? Looking back at his short but oh-so-noteworthy career, it is difficult to say when Asaf Borger went from bored IDF soldier to the booty-grabbing mayor of Ratchet City.

Could it have been when, in 2010, he penned the now-infamous line from "Act Like A Ho"—"In bed, act like a ho but first, do the dishes!"—before sitting back with a smile and patting himself on the dick? Maybe it was the first time he climbed on his "Cream Machine" van to drive around EDC? You know, the one with bumper stickers that say "Stop For Whores"? Ooh, let's not forget the time he collaborated with human embodiment of a wagging tongue Miley Cyrus on a track called "Decisions," where they threw cake at each other as an expression of how good they were at being Ratchet White People.

Whatever it was, the fact remains that when Buzzfeed crowned Borgore The Most Hated Man in EDM™ in giant glittery font, next to a picture of him slightly cross-eyed, playing beer pong, it didn't really matter at all. Because the head judge of the Most Ratchet Pageant had already transcended hate. He had long ago learned an important lesson: If You Say It The Filthiest Way Then You Win. And he had the credentials to back it up—his first full-length album, #NEWGOREORDER, debuted at number two on the iTunes Dance Albums chart. So really, all he saw was dollar signs. And lots and lots and lots of twerking butts.

Yet, amidst the media shitstorm that last week hailed down on him, Borgore had to stand up for himself. So he took to today's platform-of-choice for interacting with the common man: a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" session. Was the comments section flooded with vitriolic haterade? Or was everyone chill and just "enjoying the drop"? Let's find out.

But first let us start with a tribute to the questions that went unanswered, the missed opportunities, the ones we will never really know, the fallen soldiers in the snow.

Now let us begin.

It is hard to argue with Borgore's vision of utopia: 

It is not hard to picture him in the middle of a heap of writhing flesh and orifices: 

Does "chickiest" mean "cheekiest" or "girliest" or "bearing the most resemblence to a baby chicken"? We will never know :(

"Gangbang the UN" would be a great Borgore song: 

Very interested in the mechanics of this: 

Just a casual dose of Selena rehab shaming: 

Dude asked the same questions twice, so this time Borgore linked to to the iTunes page where you can buy #NEWGOREORDER, which is really the ultimate comeback. 

IS REAL. 

Hard to imagine anyone calling a Borgore track "the old school good stuff," but a pretty chill way to respond to criticism, nonetheless: 

Because anyone with loyal female employees is incapable of being a creep

Nice, nice, nice…
