So who ARE that insufferable indie couple in the new Hyundai TV ads?

i just wonder if people ever essay some scornful thought/reply to these sort of threads, and then think...'oh forget it' and go and do something more enlightened

Just sayin'.

they also produced another insufferable youtube personality's album according to wiki

Do tell

Oh, this thread - oh, this band - I wish I could unsee and unhear it all.

If I get deeply into pigfuck and funeral doom will it erase the kutesy-pootsey-poo-painey-pain? Or am I destined to forever burn?

has been popular on youtube for a couple years or so

Why is there so much of this pukey, little girl with wet marbles in her mouth, singing? Feist, this chick, and the other day some band someone sent me called Twin Sister who were rather nice until she opened her mouth.

I made it 49 seconds in. Cute attack rrrrrraaaaaagh

Liz Fraser needs to get back in the game and show these wet blankets how it is DONE.

Kill them with knives IMO

Wendy O Williams carves them U's with chainsaws and smokes their hair bows

U's? Up

Coincidence? Manufacturer of automobiles in a nation known for, ahem, *enthusiastic* christers hires Natz + Jesus II for car commercial.

I'm starting to think that advertisers and networks have broken down and decided to make it Christmas year 'round. Hallmark Channel and ABC Family are still broadcasting Christmas movies as well.

Hallmark has only been airing Call Me Mrs. Miracle so often as it's their highest grossing film of yet, mostly due in fact to Jewel Staite's role on this. I'm not as pathetic as I sound, I just happen to follow the former Firefly actress on her twitter.

Seriously? I had no idea there were enough Firefly fans to generate those type of ratings.

holla!

Er, ok, scuse me, I had to double check - she says "all year", not all time. Still, I think the correlation remains... Jewel Staite was only in one feature the whole year, despite Xmas associations.

It is a bit depressing to read her status updates time to time. She seems to be essentially retired, constantly tweeting about what she just ate to..what she just ate. But in between she'll reminisce about her Firefly days, absolutely morosely, like it was the peak of her life and she's never been able to reclaim any semblance of her former days since. Which is pretty much the truth.

Jewel Staite is such a cutie pie that, were she not married, I would follow her not only on twitter but to the very ends of the earth.

Oddly enough I have direct access to her Facebook account. Well, the "Add Jewel as a Friend" portion of it anyway.

^^^see what I mean.

Would start a tweepop band and sell hyundais with that.

xpost go for it bro

I need an introductory and obvious "I'm just a fan, but not just ANY FAN" message to follow up with the friend request. I'm afraid if I just did it randomly, that even she accepted I wouldn't be around for the time period in which she realizes I'm just yet another stalker and she decides to delete her. It's gotta be witty enough, the message, for me to remain on her friends list for at least 2 hours.

*delete me

thread got weird

congrats on creeping this thread up

lol xp

also the pamplemeposse shreds video is the first one posted to this thread that I got all the way through w/o stopping

as bozelka suggested, orig. disco pamplemousse is awesome

fucking insane that this thread has four hundred posts in like a day. but yes, this shit is painful. so painful that i was doubly pained to find i that half liked the (equally intolerable) "real" pomplamoose song someone linked yesterday. but why? why do i find this cheerful, childlike, wildly inoffensive plinkety-plonk so face-smashingly hideous? why has "hipsters" become shorthand for "indie-liking white people," most of them cuddly-faced, suburbs-bound, would-be-baby-making non-hipsters?

I actually think the cooing baby-making aspect of Pomplamoose is borderline-adorable, but it's the suburbs-bound thing that kinda gets to me. Depressed that there are people out there who are tailor-made for the cozy life (class-warfare part in me), outraged that they are so well-adjusted about this, and lack the ambition to fight against it, let alone transcend it.

But I'm a pretty corny fuck, and actually I truly don't wish harm on these people at all.

thing is, i'm totally cool with that. i don't think there's anything wrong with the suburbs-bound baby-makers, and i don't want them to be any other than what they are. more power to them. but they are not hipsters. they are the opposite of hipsters. fact that the word "hipsters" has come to signify these people (well-adjusted, beard-sporting white dudes and the ladies that love them) is mind-boggling to me.

^right. the more mature I get, the more I realize there's a lot to be said for not apologizing for who you are.

but yeah, def. not hipsters. Nerds.

it takes guts to be gentle and kind.

NO NOT NERDS EITHER.

I want a new classification. "Lamesters"

thought Corny Indie Fuxxxors was a perfectly serviceable label tbh

@T3mp3Tr0y Pomplamoose (sp?) has lost all hipster cred with those ads. So they're paying the ultimate price. 7:44 PM Jan 2nd via Twitter for iPhone in reply to T3mp3Tr0y
