Though the musical components of Sun Kil Moon’s Benji rarely amount to more than Mark Kozelek’s voice and acoustic guitar, its lyrical universe is incomparably vast, spanning countries and decades, populated by dead relatives, high school friends, indie-rock peers, serial killers, and corporate-franchised eateries alike. Like the catalog of samples heard on the Beastie Boys’ Paul’s Boutique, the production credits on Yeezus, or the movie-credits-length list of people who’ve played in the Fall, a supplementary directory of references is required to fully appreciate its magnitude.

Mark Kozelek’s mom: She’s 75, and the closest friend Kozelek has.
Scrabble: A classic board game that Mark Kozelek likes to play with his mom.

Domino’s: The preferred pizza provider for Kozelek and his cousins when staying over at his aunt and uncle’s.
Happy Days: Comedy series created by Garry Marshall that aired on ABC from 1974-84. A favorite among the Kozelek clan.

KFC: a.k.a. Kentucky Fried Chicken—the fast food of choice served at the funeral for Kozelek’s uncle (“and that’s how he would’ve wanted it”).

The Doors: L.A. classic-rock icons who can be found in Jim Wise’s record collection.
Stevie Nicks: Ditto.

Maybe Clickhole rather than Onion proper here.

the mind boggles
Boggle: a classic board game that Mark Kozelek likes to play with your mom

What an amazing insight into Mark Kozelek's shitty taste.

“Imagine being on your knees at your father’s funeral beside his casket, saying goodbye to him — and then you have nine orgasms right there,” he said. “While your whole family is standing behind you.”

okay

the Sun ran a story a while back abt a woman w/ the same disorder which was a series of gross misrepresentations implicitly inviting the audience to laugh at her predicament ("film at 11" etc). daresay this is along much the same lines

Fracking company teams up with Susan G. Komen, introduces pink drill bits “for the cure”

a Komen spokeswoman said that the partnership “grew from Baker Hughes’ involvement in our Houston Race for the Cure” and that “the issue is personal to them and their employees,” adding that “the evidence to this point does not establish a connection between fracking and breast cancer.”

LOL

Many of the 130,000 people who attend the San Diego Comic Con every year invest big bucks in elaborate outfits as a way of showing off their favorite Japanese characters, as well as those from American superhero movies, comics, and "genre" televisions shows such as Game of Thrones.

oh that's great

When you're disillusioned with the reality of your early adult life, dressing up like Doctor Who starts looking better and better.

i wish that was actually a serious indictment of cosplay rather than an article about millennials+economy everyone's read a million times already but with an arbitrary clickbait title

"Ernie Hudson Thinks All-Female Ghostbusters Is A Bad Idea"

dude didn't have the balls to make it a serious indictment of cosplay
i just spent the day at NYComicCon; cosplay in mass groups is great fun as long as nobody tries to make me do it.

cosplay is too expensive man
but i still appreciate others putting in the effort
