nytimes thread?

Just pick any random revive in the nyt thread, it seems like the same discussion every 2-3 weeks: lol @ this clueless person writing about her horrible life/friends/job without realizing how horrible and unrelatable it/they/it is.

yeah but to be fair for a minute there it was about people pooping on the sidewalk.

i disliked that conversation
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 11 July 2012 02:10 (eleven years ago) link
I never witnessed that in NYC but I did see 3 separate homeless dudes jerking off on the subway.

grosssss
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 11 July 2012 02:11 (eleven years ago) link
tho i guess its better than seeing three grouped homeless dudes jerking off on the subway
one for the guidebook
― sorry i'm tumblr white (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 11 July 2012 02:11 (eleven years ago) link
I would say you could trade 2 homeless dudes jerking off for one pooping, in terms of urban experience-cred
― iatee, Wednesday, 11 July 2012 02:12 (eleven years ago) link
jerking off is grosser but prob not as rare
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 11 July 2012 02:12 (eleven years ago) link

tosh.0 told a woman at his show that it would be funny if she was raped

it's a guy who does a comedy central show about youtube
― Mordy, Thursday, 12 July 2012 15:04 (eleven years ago) link
like you've been framed? fucking hell, he's one who should be raped. (wait, no-one should ever be raped, even if they have a tv show which is just watching the internet.)
― “Yes, I love the kinky fuckery." (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 12 July 2012 15:14 (eleven years ago) link

so what happened on that pitchfork list thread? i'm too scared to look. i just hear murmurs about it. pitchfork throws the listy motherfuckers of ilm a bone and they can't just be happy about it? wait, nevermind, forgot where i was for a second there...

It's fairly unintelligible passive aggressive howling amongst the Britishers. Apparently some are men and some are women and all are sensitive.

It settled down a while ago though and now people are discussing music.
― the same dope water as you (how's life), Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:11 (eleven years ago) link
its the same clusterfuck ilm does on default - differences between white/black/male/female/gay/straight listeners in different genres all wrapped up on one quasi-indie website that is a hate figure, strawman and multiple poster employer all wrapped up into one. smack yr head against the wall, it'll be more purposeful than reading that thread. oh and there is about 200 posts about whether kanye reads p4k.
― a hoy hoy, Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:16 (eleven years ago) link
wait, there were? I guess I tapped out of that thread too early
― Lil Swayne of Pie (DJP), Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:17 (eleven years ago) link
Oh wait, there are TWO threads about this pitchfork poll.
― the same dope water as you (how's life), Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:19 (eleven years ago) link
It's not actually that bad. A few moments where people had their feelings hurt and others were a little defensive, but nothing really out of line or particularly clusterfuckery.
Mostly the usual "Why do White Men listen to music made by White Men?" and then investigations and rabbit holes. We've swung back around to Pitchfork's place as a 'niche' or a 'generalized' magazine, and how that might impact gender/racial biases in canonical lists.
― Legendary General Cypher Raige (Gukbe), Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:20 (eleven years ago) link
lol that was p early, back when people were posting lists. someone had mbfghf at #1 and it set people off on that tangent, then wcc said something, nick wrote a blog and it went from there

― Lil Swayne of Pie (DJP), Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:24 (eleven years ago) link
would agree its not really a clusterfuck though.
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link
it's far less interesting than that would imply
― thomp, Tuesday, 21 August 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link
remember when ilm felt justifiably superior to pitchfork
