HIPSTER RUNOFF BLOG OF THE MOMENT

can't fault this logic bomb

actually now that i think about it "resentful about the most resentful people on earth" sort of describes the nazis

jews are resentful...?

for whom clothes/fashion seems to be the big hatred point they tag to hipsters, who aren't actually into clothes/fashion themselves at all.

No, they DRESS like they're not into clothes, but it's a carefully studied pose. I'm not anti-hipster, I'm just anti-leggings.

:D

hipsters vs altBros?

come on

cum on

already?

I just read the Animal Collective post, I didn't find it that impressive, needs to self edit. Plus it's smartass in tone without actually being funny.

i lold

would like to hear a positive interpretation of it though, to actually see what others think the point is.

x-post the other thing is the notion of "internet music" is a good one but there are tons more acts whom it fits much more than Animal Collective. Strawperson #1 is a friend of mine who barely uses email, has no Facebook etc is a big AC fan...can't imagine her liking bloghouse or something...

so the point of hipsterunoff is that every single thing you say about it is part of the joke...great

wait so if hipsterism is a stream and this blog is the runoff of the stream, sort of the crystalization of hipsters, the silt of the hipsters is that right

or maybe its a sexy race who knows

in an ironical twist the site keeps crashing while im trying to link to awesome posts

in the bar i work at the other day this fairly normal looking guy wanted to watch the darts on television, a nearby group sneered "oh is this the new hipster new cross thing - watching darts ironically?" to peels of laughter. thing is they were playing fucking scrabble in the pub.

we are through the ironic looking glass here people

CORRECTION

just as an FYI^^

yeah you could sorta see it as VERY hipster in the sense that it seems to be policing and deflating pretentions of hipsterism...thus critical reading for the evolution of hipsterism.

this is turning into a full fledged ilxor.com thread now - cool

the world has gone mad with hipsterism

you cant even kick an irony in the street anymore

been reading this for a while, it's adorable!

I also dispute the "he's a good writer" bit, that AC thing went on forever...and the irritating academic thesis tone is hard to take too.

I can't load it..."database error"?

lol laurel dont u get the joke???!?! "database error".... hipsters!>!?!?!?

the site's overrun with hipsters--how typical

lately i've appreciated the posts on how tv on the radio are not that good, also the indoor soccer shoes, i have a pair of those exact shoes in a box under my desk b/c keep meaning to exchange for the right size, but now i am not sure if they fit my personal brand

btw i cant believe this whole OMG IRONY meme is still going it even predates hipsters - people should just get over it - irony is just one of the beautiful rainbow ways of communicating

tho maybe in the 90s people were more concerned w/the ravages of sarcasm - which is in my understand sort of entry level irony

his first blog was funnier.

the irony thing is ridiculous...how does someone even like something "ironically"...

o o tipsy waht was his 1st blog

i "hate" irony

^^^ irony

^^^^ "irony"

NFL RUNOFF

This blog is not very funny. Sorry, people who think it is, but you're losers.

<3 u

it's like an unfunny king boy pato side-project. who has the time to build a blog dedicated to imagining how other people no-one seems ever to have met like this or that bit of cultural ephemera?

Are you implying there are funny KBP side projects?

Hi dere.

the one with the video at the monster truck rally is fine enough but I don't think I've ever sought out another Grimes banger

No some of her songs are incredible including Vanessa, Flesh Without Blood, and Oblivion

Oblivion is not incredible, it is interminable

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADHFwabVJec

haha holy shit you'd have to pay me to watch a video with that thumbnail

I dont like the new stuff as much

not to go all hro here, but grimes has always been a bunch of tumblr posts come to life for all that entails

She had a cool sound though and I liked her music in my early twenties. Some of the tracks hold up in my opinion.

“visions (demo)” and “violence” are both songs I enjoy a lot

sorry, not “visions” meant “REALIty (demo)”

Vowels=space and time is another really good one

kind of wish someone was doing a less-toxic but still sarcastically critical type of blog now when I see headlines like

WHY ORANGETHEORY HIRED STEVE AOKI AS ITS CMO—CHIEF MUSIC OFFICER

Never forget!

the whole of chillwave grimes et al i was like i respect the audacity of making music that sounds like singing along to the radio playing in the other room but i dont respect it that much

'player of games' is sick

Yeah, I feel like when he took breaks from doing some of the grosser hounding of musicians his voice could work really well for a specific sort of at-large cultural criticism.

e.g. Urban Outfitters stock is in 'the shitter', CEO resigns. Are alt retailers dying?

There was a really good one or maybe series of ones referencing edison lightbulb, mason jars, exposed brick sort of aesthetic trend in coffeehouses, "gastropubs" that was really satisfying. He was good at that stuff I think.

Oh wait I just read all 3000 posts on this thread and I guess that was prev mentioned.

i’ve been enjoying the stuff brad troemel’s been putting on ig/patreon lately. like a historicization of post-internet art and online culture of the last 15-ish years. his style is ymmv but imo it’s informative and interesting. this one was about carles/hr:
