truth bombs

xp A friend of mine once told me he didn't think hip hop was an album genre. I emailed him a list of 50 classics right off the bat. I think this usually translates as "I don't personally own or know about many hip hop/reggae/whatever albums."

I don't think Sarah Palin is clueless. She does this calculated dog-whistle shit all the time, only this time it's well within human hearing range.

this thread is full of right-on political bromides but our honourable friend crüt is aphoristic as well as merely otm there

i like meerkats as much as the next man but if you base your decision to purchase home insurance based on the offer of a cuddly toy then you probably shdn't be running the household budget tbh

Anoka deserves all the national scorn it has coming to it.

the definition of "irony" has been permanently dumbed down to the level of "snark," right?

quod erat demonstrandum

v good

snark = snipey sarcasm, right?

snipey sarcasm that doesn't make a good point. Be fair

After the depths and stark beauty of TOTBl, the pop direction of antics was partially predictable but all the same no less disappointing.

These ghuys have re-released antics like 3 times and now at concerts I have to share space with jocks and green day fans.

Money is the destroyer of all good things

just having been in whatever middling indie rock bands

i think the worst thing about this "youtube band" phenomenon is that i think it's really important for ppl to perform live shows before they record anything because it's really important to look into that crowd's bored eyes and watch them shuffle off to go smoke and get beers and understand how...bad...your...songs...are

^this is also true for people who blog but never intern

i blog but never interned

iBlog

ilx was your internship hon

haha that's so true & makes me feel bad when i get emails from dudes asking how to move up in the writing world

truth bomb

those dudes will never know the rigors of going toe to toe against Dom

may he rest in peace

(i never interned either btw)

once theyve started a ban ___ thread about you start prepping yr gawker writing samples

sweet, my internship is finally nearing its end!

discernible journalism style

too bad nobody on here ever pushed me to write well about cinema, eh

some of us did!

hey hey now no ones talking abt writing well

and I've damned you for that already; anyway it didn't work. xp

i also never interned. hell, i flunked out of college. ilx was pretty much the key to every paid writing/editing job i've ever had so.

I learned about chain pizzerias in western Massachusetts thanks to ILX.

i kindof feel like exactly these things that are being used itt to describe these guys as dicks are exactly why they are good. lack of responsibility. bailing out on the debts they said they would pay. its cathartic and refreshing. the deal was not the deal i thought it was. the fine print was unreadable. i wanted the money but not the job. this is how i feel, bypassing the beaurocracies that displace every responsibility. don't phone in sick because its a busy shift. i don't fucking care. its like epic records. standing on the balcony. i wish i could do that. i still have to fucking wait tables every night. i'm glad somebody can. standing teetering on the edge. two fingers. tie the cord, kick the chair and you're dead. if i call in sick its my fucking coworkers that take the brunt. this is it, the production of innocence. my boss is my best friend. we're all victims. there's something to be said for it. the album is so good as well. all uncontainable id. no love. deep web. wrapped up so tight i can't breath. i need something that punctures it. interrupts these notions of responsibility that are predicated on this particular handshake. i hope i can pay my rent this month.
