is there some reason this boring internet billionaire's totally unremarkable taste is being singled out for scorn? other than third tier VH1 fave Ingrid Michaelson pretty much all these artists are beloved by millions and millions of people, mostly corny white people sure but who cares really.

"check out this guy who likes NIRVANA and RADIOHEAD and DAFT PUNK **snort** good thing we're all better than that here on ilx huh"

I didn't even notice it before now, but LCD Soundsystem? pretty fuckin' lol-worthy

also if you're hung up on the fact that "some of these bands are good" or "lots of people like Jay-Z" you're kind of missing the point

Tough call between AAR and Radiohead

I'm kind of missing the point

Some kind of satire of ILX polls?

there are so many other lol-worthy elements to his profile why pick this?

Taylor Swift, just to spite ILM.

When did I say this? Oh, right, I didn't. I have plenty of Radiohead and Daft Punk threads bookmarked, so what would even be the point? It's not "my taste is better than your taste," it's "I'm bored and would like to discuss this guy's taste and start a poll just because."

Because the thread's on ILM... not elsewhere.
Basically I am trying to stay at least 5% on topic here.

LOL still means "laugh out loud" right? who cares what this worm is listening to? and what is there to discuss?
― hobbes, Tuesday, 25 May 2010 21:24 (thirteen years ago) link
Well since you clicked on the thread and took the time to read enough of its contents to form a coherent reply, why don't you tell me what's worth discussing?
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 25 May 2010 21:27 (thirteen years ago) link
are you 15? i was looking for LOLs in a thread with "LOL" in the title
― hobbes, Tuesday, 25 May 2010 21:30 (thirteen years ago) link
Oftentimes on ILM "LOLs" and "discussions" do not go hand-in-hand.

While I don't support making fun of someone else's music taste it seems this guy never really listens to music and he just checked the popularity stats for last.fm and just namedropped the top artists in there (well, maybe excluding 'the beatles'... he must've thought they were too popular already).

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Glad this is settled.

^ can't believe this song didn't make a bigger impact or whatever, it's so good

the lyrics could be replaced with lyrics about anything and it'd be just as good

Yeah it's great, I think I listened to the rest of their album and liked it too but idrr
