five years pass...

Did we really let the twentieth anniversary of this thread go entirely unmarked? I suppose we were all a little distracted.

There's an analogy between the Five Colleges and Scooby-Doo, with each school a different character. Hampshire is Shaggy. Will Oldham is an alum; he's probably as close to the stereotypical Hampshire student as anyone (hyperintellectual, violently odd, stupidly pretentious).

Sorry to correct 20-yr-old misinfo, but Oldham didn’t go to Hampshire. (He attended Brown, but didn’t graduate)

they were probably mixed up with Elliot Smith.

Tom's blog from the first post is still archived: https://web.archive.org/web/20001206155500/http://www.netcomuk.co.uk/~tewing/2000_08_20_singlesa.html

Apparently the offending emo bands were Get Up Kids and Samiam.
