He might present himself as a tattooed hustler — the type of ageless slacker who fires off an e-mail to a reporter with the salutation, “Hey, Cap’n Poopy Pants.”
hustler and slacker are opposite types of doods jus fyi style section

you could interview a fire hydrant as long as you mention at least 3 of the following: an obscure NY or LA band/coke/trendy hipster vests/masturbation/gay sex/trendy hipster sneakers/minorities/hipster puppies.

All I know about it is from this classick thread!

As absurd as I realize it is, I really do enjoy reading VICE and have discovered a lot of film/music through it.
― Chanté Ackerman (Stevie D), Tuesday, 17 August 2010 16:39 (thirteen years ago) link
ive always liked vice. even though ive always imagined the people working for it to be complete cunts. also had to turn a blind eye to all the racist shit they used to spew in their pages too. funny how theyve cleaned their act up now, though i kinda prefer it.
― titchy (titchyschneiderMk2), Tuesday, 17 August 2010 17:02 (thirteen years ago) link
I think the cleanup of racist shit might be because they booted Gavin McInnes who is a Republican?
― Philip Nunez, Tuesday, 17 August 2010 17:48 (thirteen years ago) link
they booted Gavin McInnes
wow really?

im pretty amazed to read how rich that guy has gotten off vice though. they must be the ultimate freesheet/freemag success story.

who or what did the booting?
ha okay I had no idea, maybe I should look at Vice and see if I still find it disgusting and repellent

vice is much much less repellent since mcinnes departure but

yeah, weird. i remember talking to some girl in 2005 who was almost a decade younger than me, and she was going on about how cool vice magazine was, and at the time i was kind of scratching my head thinking, isn't that kind of played out by now? and she also talked about nirvana in reverent tones, as much as ascribing them the status of the beatles of her generation. but she was also really excited about that pbs scorcese dylan thing that was airing at the time. ah youth. insert hey 19 joke here.

lol arthur magazine is so mad abt the vice article on twitter right now
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 18 August 2010 01:44 (thirteen years ago) link
I will say that it's become very, very difficult to actually get Vice for free these days. I pop in AA every time I walk buy to see if they have any and I don't think I've actually gotten one once; they all tell me they get them in sporadically and they're all gone within a day or two.

i feel like vice and arthur are two sides of the same coin that each emphasized and are equally responsible for egging on trends in the previous decade that bugged the heck out of me. except that at this point i would sooner put faith in some coked-up vice strawman than devendritus
