Drake and Aziz Ansari...

I love the Onion. I also love their review section.

The majority of Pitchfork reviews I have read fall into this category. It seems like as long as they are breezily phrased with a smattering of ersatz evocative nu-vocabulary (underlining the reviewer's contact with "cool"), it passes as some kind of incisive overview of the album being reviewed. But it's not, it's hot molten bullshit spewing out of someone's ass.One way to analyse Pitchfork's rating system

lol very funnyI hear the Captain called for a cab as soon as he hit shore. And that Russian millionaires were buying up spots on the lifeboats.I hear Roberto Benigni is already working on a screenplay and he will star as the Captain.

Is that a secret GoogleMap feature?

I hear the voice of Merrill Garbus speaking through you. She uses a medium to express anger, 'cause she's busy being artistically fruitful

The Black woman, because she is so misunderstood

lol...virulent hate. Would it be safe to say that Klosterman represents and expresses the lowest common denominator in music writing?

Justin Fucking Bieber, of course

The little dude has it good. He doesn't have to crouch to engage in the monkey fuck.

Yeah, I totally get you, post-elaboration. It's like he needs some kind of frame of reference in order to be able to make his decision, slot it into his idea of where it belongs. In some cases, this approach works, because some music is so referential to other artists and styles, but the same approach also eschews appreciation of the individualistic qualities of an album or song and, sometimes, that's the most important quality.It's equally important to be mindful that just because some people like it, it doesn't mean that a person should or have to like it also. Sure, it's great to find somet

OK, I'll bite and become even more hated than before on these forums.I agree with Klosterman's take on this album and how he expresses it in his article. He LIKES the album and wants Tuneyards to succeed (I know, I know...that's NOT how you spell it), but he's also calling it out as a passing phase, something that won't stand the test of time. I listened to a couple of tracks and I would say that it's kind of cool and sounds interesting, but those aren't songs, so much as they are a pastiche of noise. If I want songs from 2011, I'll listen to Real Estate or Bon Iver, for example. The video for

lol @ Extemely Loud and Incredibly Close nominations after being severely panned. Love Max Von Sydow, though.

Which way is up?

It's a joke, you putz. I thought you had a sense of humour. Look at your comments and tell me they can't be misconstrued. In my deconstruction of the quoted, my attempt was not meant as insulting. If you want to take it negatively, that's your call, not my meaning. You seem like a playful person, but you seem to be awfully sensitive about some things.

So it's old news that Biatch is gay? Thanks for continuing to make me feel unwelcome. Can't make a snide allusion around here without having to deal with everyone's cliquey bullshit.

Another jewel of a turd from the keyboard of Theraflu.

That was kind of fun (made somewhat more fun because it brought Brvhrt down at least a little), but also somewhat insufferable. Kind of like sitting next to a really loud table of overopinionated guys who get paid to write whatever passes for a thought, however half-baked. If I was one of the guys, though, that would be cool.

Working at Lululemon is doing a number on your sexuality, unless this was already a done deal...

Would like extra food vouchers and pre-clipped coupons (cannot clip myself...not allowed to use scissors)

On a somewhat related note, anyone ever notice the reason someone cheats on their partner is different in terms of which gender it is? At least, what I see going on is, in general, women get involved with someone else for emotionally motivated resons, whereas men usually are perceived a horndogs and do it strictly for sexual reasons. This, of course, is far from the truth of things, but I find women will use the supposed "lack of intimacy" as a breakup weapon and men will usually go with the "too much of a controlling bitch" thing.Life...it's complicated...

So much for the "smoke and mirrors" method...

lol You just lost some Forum Credibility points or something. At least, as far as a couple of posters are concerned. Don't worry. It just means you are capable of forming your own opinion based on certain truths that are inescapable.
