Oh, Lord. Does everyone know who Aimee Mann is? She’s the singer/songwriter most famous for her work on Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia, including a large chunk of that soundtrack. She’s been a singer for decades, and she’s got a lovely, bluesy voice, like Lucinda Williams before the Jack Daniels and the smokes (I was always think of Lucinda Williams probably because Lucinda and Aimee look similar, I think). Anyway, Aimee has a Twitter account, and apparently she was watching one of the endless Law & Order: SVU marathons that seem to be held every other day on USA. Aimee tweeted:

Ruh-roh. So someone told Ice-T about it, and that sh-t escalated real fast:

Considering I regularly tell people to “eat a BAG of dicks” the concept of eating “a hot bowl of dicks” isn’t foreign to me. Although I like Ice’s personal touch to the insults. By the way, the FLTG is the “Final Level Twitter Gang”. Basically, it’s Ice-T and his minions, who will f-ck with a bitch over Twitter. So… Aimee was then informed of the Twitter War she was now engaged in (and started, for God’s sake), and she quickly backtracked:

After which Ice-T’s graciously accepted Aimee’s apology, tweeting: “OK. Homegirl apologized……. Say no more. FLTG Cease fire! “Once again there’s Peace in Twitterland.” Ice T… I’ll say it again… The Final Level Twitter Gang is a peaceful organization. We never attack….. BUT WE WILL RETALIATE. Ice T”.
You know what really bothers me about this, and makes me rather unapologetically Team Ice? Ice-T is really good on SVU! I’ve been thinking for a while now that the producers need to give him more screen time and Det. Finn the lead on more investigations, and not just the drug-related cases (Finn is an ex-Narcotics detective). Aimee’s criticism didn’t just come out of left field, it was untrue! TEAM ICE.
