Matthew Perpetua and Fluxblog make the NY Times, fame and fortune is his

i kind of have the dopest brag tho, one of my articles for fader was tweeted by Pam Grier

/stunts like perpetua

The only time I ever see anything on Buzzfeed is when someone else links to it, so I don't feel qualified to judge it accurately. That said, it's basically a tumblr itself with millions of dollars poured into it.

whiney can you post that ed droste tweet in here

i understand why people loathe perpetua but that tumblr thing is seriously reaching for something that totally isn't there

something i wrote was once tweeted by how to dress well :((((((((((((((((((((((((

m-perp is such a pompous div, only thing wrong with that post is that they haven't learned to ignore him yet

xp The subtext so often seems to be, "why don't that many people pay attention to me?"

Exhibit A: this thread. Dude's perspective/style/interests haven't changed appreciably in ten years but he goes from being a low-ish profile blogger/ILXor who people here generally at least got along with and were moderately respectful towards to being someone with a higher profile who a lot of people love to shit on and make hilaaaarious fat jokes about. I know some people have legitimate beef with him, but I seem to encounter way less legit criticism than petty bitching wrt MP.

hey i thought he was a twat 10 years ago too

So did I. I'm disturbed by the way he writes about women, and that post about Milano kind of pings on that scale.

ninety9 is titled after an xkcd punchline = he or she can get fucked no matter the merits imo

"up in my vertical" is o_O and "So, if nothing at all, I succeeded in making the daughter from Who’s the Boss? think about, and potentially listen to, Stereolab and Yo La Tengo for at least few seconds" is fuckin heinous, yes.

do i have to choose a side here, is what i'm asking

yeah, big perp has always been a smarmy fucking dick xps

welcome to tumblr

(not gonna front though, perp is pretty worthless and doubly so since he got hired for buzzfeed)

dyin at whiney

I respect Fluxblog from the limited exposure I have to him, but he hasn't actually turned me on to any quality new music in yonks, he tends to angle for the lowest common denominator now, and basically I stopped paying attention since he rated a Skrillex song highly.

But I guess Skrillex is making "UK-dubstep" now.

So which ILXor was big perp?

he went under the tricky psuedonym "Matthew Perpetua"

Suede-o-nym

this is definitely something worth getting up in arms about

God. I'd be geeked too if Alyssa Milano shared something I wrote with gazillions of followers, which is all that's going on here. Whoever this ninety9 person is needs to take a leap.

back when she only had around 10k followers she accidentally retweeted a goatse link i sent her. good times

okay you win

So, if nothing at all, I succeeded in making the daughter from Who’s the Boss? think about, and potentially listen to, Stereolab and Yo La Tengo for at least few seconds

He also talks about Counting Crows and the Outhere Brothers in that post, I would love it if those entries turned out to be sole focus of her interest.

terrible images of getting something in my vertical vs polishes coinslot :(

omg

alyssa milano was in commando. was perpetua in commando? i think not. she's way cooler than most people. did you know her dad is a hotshot hollywood music editor for the movies? does spiderman movies and stuff.

her albums weren't so hot though...

I didn't remember her releasing albums. That is dreadful.

probably better than this though

i think her albums were asia-only or something. but she did a ton of singles and albums. all on youtube seemingly.

since when was yo la tengo some kind of barometer of rarified quality? jesus

the condescension and self-big-ups are, how you say, insupportable; i wouldn't write the tumblr post just because i don't have the energy for that kind of screenshotting and outrage but i completely understand it

does "my vertical" mean like a "column", i.e. his blog or whatever? so "get something up in my vertical" means "post something to my blog"?

i have to admit i thought it was a synonym for eating at first, like maybe his vertical was his neck or something

yeah it's a stupid web 2.0 term for, like, a topic section of a website

ohhhhh right like "we're developing a new vertical, it's targeted at women so it's about food and babies"

"and looking good"

"was about to say"

or how the nyt style section is basically a "vertical" for hideous douchebags?

yeah basically. except I don't think the style section has a clickable "hideous douchebag" link in their ~tag cloud~

max I think did a funny post about Huffington Post having a sideboob vertical but I'm not gonna google "huffpo sideboob" from work so I can't find it

i'll be back in just a little while
so i can get some vertical
smile
ANNIHILATE x 3
ALL WEEK LONG
