This is apparantly the "Rocky Horror of furry fandom." I was of the right age to see this on VHS, but I guess I never did...

Read that as "Analympics" :(

i think most people looking for analympics and finding that would be seriously disappointed.

but the thirty people who weren't went off and each made furry conventions. It's the Velvet Undergrowl of the movement.

Eazy zing, but a genuine LOL:

it was a good zing and i felt zinged, even though it's technically wrong and the whole point was someone did it after me!

i just realized how entirely inscrutable that is out of context

inscrutable

xpost jesus! my word

And I was only posting that word.

I don't think that what Nabisco wrote is that different from what you're saying here. Yes, the indie-hipster of yesteryear and the indie-hipster of today are both exercising "discernment" - the difference is the degree of personal investment of time and energy that is required to seek out non-mainstream bands. What used to be a massively time-consuming passion can now be just a casual interest. The audience for this type of band has expanded exponentially, and the level of commitment and intensity has dropped (on average, not in every particular case). At the same time, the distinguishing subcultural markers become less meaningful. What was once the province of "freaks and geeks" is now mainstream.

Even back in the day, people always said that it was all about the music, but I think a big part of the fun for a lot of people was the sense of being plugged into a secret underground society, with its own mores, markers, and shibboleths. Thus the resentment whenever a band got too popular or "sold out", in the parlance of the times. The fact that it took a while to build a following, even among the most tuned-in members of the subculture, was a necessary constraint. Now that constraint is gone, and bands routinely become internet sensations practically overnight - available to anyone anywhere at the click of a mouse. It's hard to figure out what "selling out" means anymore. And so the bogeyman which was used to police the borders of the subculture is gone, and the subculture feels like it's dissolving. Everything is just pop now. Perhaps this is the coded message in Pitchfork's inscrutable embrace of Timberlake et al.

zinging is the great lost art of ILX

tedious zing policing lives strong, though

the policing of tedious zings, or the tedious policing of zings? straight question.

my zing lies slain behind the arras

who zings the zingsmen?

Zing, goddess, the anger of Peleus’ son Achilleus

my zing lies slain behind the arras
