getting worked up about the fact that I started this is pretty much lamer than anything

Yeah guys, the correct response is "tut, click SB, move on"

or you could just ignore the thread, since I'm actually interested in talking about this, and people trying to prevent me from doing so for no reason

aw yeah

Hey ksmarker, I am in support of your move, for whatever that's worth to the folks showing up here to post. I both get why you are interested and why you moved the discussion here. Eventually another story as relevant or interesting as the fact that the NY Times wrote a story about this dude will show up, and then yes, it will be good not to drag it into other threads.

I guess I joined the ranks of velko and pato w/ this one

i’m last and when he gets to me he shakes my hand and i say “it’s great to meet you!!” and he says “what do you do?”

and i am looking barack obama in the eye and i say, “i write a blog about a popular music website!”

and he looks at me quizzically for a second, i guess he was sort of piecing it together, and he goes, “oh, which website?”

and i say, “it’s called pitchfork. it’s based in chicago! are you familiar with it?”

and he says, “no, but i’ll have to look into it!”

Uh.

god this guy is so fucking crazy

man I actually went to 'pitchforkreviewsreviewsreviews.com' hoping there would be a site there. I would read that, I think.

There should be a column on Pitchfork called Pitchfork Reviews Pitchfork Reviews Reviews.

the weird thing about the obama post is that, from my perspective, it is the PRR guy saying "hi, nabisco, I was IN A VAN IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE"

he doesn't actually mention you or allude to you in that post though, does he?? (just skimmed the post)

"hi, nabisco, I was IN A VAN IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE"

^ could be the blog's new tagline

no of course he doesn't, i'm just saying it's funny. (also i think the post is to some degree fiction/joking)

the fiction and jokes of an insane person

I think there's probably a degree of Aspergers at work with this kid. I mean...

People with Asperger syndrome often display behavior, interests, and activities that are restricted and repetitive and are sometimes abnormally intense or focused. They may stick to inflexible routines, move in stereotyped and repetitive ways, or preoccupy themselves with parts of objects.

Pursuit of specific and narrow areas of interest is one of the most striking features of AS. Individuals with AS may collect volumes of detailed information on a relatively narrow topic such as weather data or star names, without necessarily having genuine understanding of the broader topic.

prediction: this thread will soon get a really interesting revive

i really doubt obama will go to that trouble nabisco

lmao @ this (now redacted):
4. on the new OJ Da Juiceman video for the song entitled “Party Started” i think he says something like “if i don’t get wasted / blame the Jew-man” and then there’s a short clip of an ostensibly jewish man holding a bag of money and grinning. not to be like the rap anti-defamation league but like why does shit like this always get a pass

his posts on rap are usually AWFUL

I hope no one would go to a blog called Pitchfork Reviews Reviews expecting incisive rap criticism

well that can't be what nabisco was thinking of xxp

~~spoiler~~ P4k bought PRR and it's gonna run as a daily feature where the site critiques itself

nabisco prob just means that the pfork reviews dude is gonna post itt

or maybe they hired him, who knows

this is weird to me because i would read PRR in college when dude was my age. i was also aware of tavi at that time, who was described to me as a child prodigy.

i read his book, its not bad, hes tao lin but hanging out w/ more boring ppl if that's possible. it's obv a quick read and is relatable. the best part is like 3 pages long where he recounts applying for a job w/ an investment bank (only b/c he finds a woman who works there's cell phone in a cab), doesn't hear back for two and a half weeks, emails and tells her off and sez her company + their business ruined the economy, etc, and she responds showing him an email to HR that they were abt to hire him. it is the anecdote of a generation, and well told regardless of if it even happened

dating tavi would prob be v good for him like emotionally & socially cuz she seems well-adjusted and really healthy in those respects

Yeah that doesn't sound made up at all xp

such an upworthy anecdote!

i wish i finished the novel i started when i was 22 about an aimless post-graduate. it was similar to this book in its self-involvement but involved a hallucinogenic crucifixion scene too.

treesh do u think this shapiro person might be a sexual degenerate and future chemical castratee

getting an email from an i-banker you don't even want to work for who is nevertheless eager to hire you is not the anecdote of a generation, it is the anecdote of someone with incredible luck

i remember that cab/cellphone anecdote from his blog

Was happy for Tavi when I heard this like "cool she's got a bf", didn't realize that certain young New Yorkers were considered more hateable than others

oh believe me there's this whole thing

to me you're an entire city of Tao Lins and I luv you regardless

I've avoided reading Tao Lin because people kept noting that the PRR guy was ripping him off

Lol brad

I like Philip Sherburne's stuff and I guess you could review the Jeff Bridges 'Sleeping Tapes', but isn't this also an advertisement for Squarespace produced by Wieden+Kennedy?

In July, one devotee, David Shapiro, will publish “Supremacist,” a semi-autobiographical novel about the spirit quest of a narrator named David to visit every Supreme store on earth.

lol

the sponsored content of a generation

that cannot be real

WOWWW really? every store? all ten of them?!?

nope

Mr. Shapiro said in an interview that he had visited every store but Paris

is there a part about dating a quasi-high schooler

yeah, but instead of writing it, he just C&P's from Richard Yates by Tao Lin and adds a few lines of commentary

it's published by the same house that published marie calloway's collection of gchats and selfies. so

is there a part about dating a quasi-high schooler

literally every one of these dudes huh

right?

I went back inside and looked through all of the merchandise again. I bought two packs of Supreme-branded Post-It Notes for $2 each. They were selling on eBay for $18 each.

I noticed that the guy working behind the counter was the white kid from Odd Future. I couldn't remember his name. He gave me a curious look. He must have noticed me sitting outside the store for four hours.

He said, "Do you need a bag?"

I said, "No, it's OK. It's just Post-It Notes." I put them into my jacket pocket.

I walked back outside and sat back down on the bench. I lit one.

I texted Camilla, "The guy behind the counter is the white kid from Odd Future. I just bought some Post-Its from him."

I Googled "white kid odd future" and looked through some pictures of him. He changed his hairstyle from blonde to black. Looked cool either way.

Camilla texted back, "Thought he looked familiar."

I walked over to Canter's to use the bathroom. I got a pastrami sandwich on rye bread with mustard and I ate it in a booth by myself. I slipped an Ativan into the sandwich and ate it like when a dog owner makes a dog take its medicine by mixing it in with its food.

I went into the bathroom, walked into a stall, and drank some vodka out of my bag. I took 5 milligrams of Mellow Yellow and 10 milligrams of Propranalol.

I walked back to Supreme and sat outside again. The sun was bright. I bought a pair of sunglasses from the white kid in Odd Future.

who the hell takes ativan via sandwich

Imagine a whole book of this shit.

hoping for a followup about fucking on every casper mattress

This guy is like a real life carles without wit or self awareness

what the fuck is Supreme

the book is soothingly narrated in the flat-affect preferred by contemporary alt-lit.

the book is really fucking funny. i haven't read any of the press on it nor do i know who david shapiro is but it's really fun and stupid

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq74A79Yhu4

Really enjoyed Supremacist (much funnier than Tao Lin)

that looks like a way less charming and creative version of high maintainence

is there nothing white men can't do?

this guy really failed upwards in tremendous fashion

D-40 otm. i guess a stage play with dude's face plastered on the promotional materials is the next logical step. Then after it gets middlling-to-bad reviews and no one sees it, i don't know, a comic book maybe

the presidency

all my pitchfork seem so far awai
