Pitchfork's Chris Ott takes No Prisoners

loooollllllllllll

love from a bot don't startle wry ott

Doesn't Ott work in IT? Paid or not, he's figured out how to manipulate the system. Either way he's rallying to almost no one.

There are over 1700 posts in this thread. I wonder how many would be here if you removed all "bennies" references.

4 or 5

Why does the perennial WGW "this is what ILX is" argument follow up with a description of himself and only himself

Ott-watchers take note he is in the midst of launching into a harrowing first person account of the first time he saw Boogie Nights:

think goon tie merits an otm from you here my man

caught up on Ott's twitter feed, he's been on quite a run lately. telling a female writer he's almost ready to file his libel suit against her, defending the Pomplamoose guy's essay, taking great satisfaction in the downfall of Wondering Sound.

ok, i'll bite, why the hell is he threatening a libel suit on twitter

It's that DIY spirit

Ott also started a fight with one of the human cocaine baggies from DIIV, apparently dude's misogyny is bad because he looks old (?)

ott saying that DIIV's singer is actually 10 years older than they say he is is my fav ott conspiracy

threatening someone during the holidays, over twitter, publicly, that "you're about to have really, really bad new year" is slimy as fuck

not that there's a great time to do this, mind you (even if it's just a libel suit, which anyone who knows the remotest amount of media law knows is pretty toothless), but still

all his recent DIIV tweets are 9.0 classics

i can't believe this thread is 11 years old.

i heard a long-ass time ago that grimes/james bought ott a bunch of fake followers as a joke. true or false, i still remember his count exploding overnight

Lmao can you do that??

I'm gonna do that right now

*Dips into my bennies and extracts $20 which I use to buy Ott 10,000 fake twitter followers*

--soyrev

quite a bit of discussion of ott's follow count being 94 percent fake upthread, as determined via twitteraudit, so yea that combined with this tidbit adds up

yeah i meant to be replying to that, hah sorry :B

also, why is he threatening lindsay zoladz with a label suit? cld not find any explanation lol

haha wow. is he friendly w/ Grimes or is she on his enemies list? Murgatroid pointed out to me recently that Ott refers to his daughter as "Baby Grimes" repeatedly in tweets which just seems so odd and creepy.

Hahah that is so http://www.theonion.com/articles/cool-dad-raising-daughter-on-media-that-will-put-h,26132/

SD I would guess that she's too hyped by pitchfork to not(t) be on his enemies list.

Wait what did the DIIV dude do? I can't keep up

--you say tomato/i say imago (upper mississippi sh@kedown)

some member of the band (not heroin-casualty zach cole himself) went on a tear of misogynist and sexist bullshit via 4chan

correction to above redundancy: misogynist and racist (and anti-Semitic! and homophobic) bullshit

grimes has tweeted anti pitchfork things, inc. "fuck pitchfork" and "pitchfork sucks"

He doesn't "hate people hyped by pitchfork", that's like really stupid thing to say, you clearly know nothing of the Ott

Looks like your big toe popped through, probably due to your little claws.

sloth you're a charli xcx superfan i think that qualifies you to the autosock club

?

you're saying sloth is charlie xcx?

look, it's no one's fault but god's that you don't have opposable thumbs, take it up with him

i am a superfan of many musical things, even ones supposedly approved by both otts and tanukis

xp i'd prob have my student loans paid if i was, that'd be so convenient

lisen I said something unkind about charlie xcx when I joined and it set a light to your ass ever since don't be mad cuz I'm right

ott i mean nuki you have never once said anything about charli xcx while i've been on ILX, other than posting a link to the saul austerlitz article ITT, and i could care less if you did - for the 1,000th time, things like that are not why people mock you for clowning on pop music

also i know the spelling errors might be a cover-your-sock-tracks tactic but goddamn dude

bene vixit qui bene latuit

the ott is gone, long live the ott

how did I miss this most glorious of moments

Is there a sadder bastion of back-patting than ILM IDK.

Hi

IT ISN'T SO WRONG TO BE WHERE YOU'RE FROM.
