Brilliant Submitted Post
I haven’t posted nearly at all. Mainly because I just haven’t felt inspired to post/I don’t feel like logging onto Tumblr/I’m doing other things.  But I logged on today and found a brilliant submission! I wanted to honor the post and post in a post that I’m posting myself. BRILLIANT GENIUS: youre a faggot. i would fight you if i knew who you were Wow....

TODAY IN RIDICULOUS MOMENTS OF HYPOCRISY
BON IVER’s JUSTIN VERNON has gone on record saying that he doesn’t support the Grammies, or what they stand for… …Says the guy who contributes his music to the Twilight soundtrack.

My Recent Absence
So, some of you may have noticed I haven’t been around for a little while. That’s because I’ve been working on an idea that I’m now prepared to “debut”. I’ve decided I’m going to start reviewing and promoting small-time musicians (and well known musicians) as a way to offer support. I’m sick of all of the bullshit “indie” websites...

curseofwomanhood asked: Hi, you're amazing. I laugh my jewish ass off with every post you make. You are the perfect blend of cynicism without narcism (yep, big words, are you impressed?). I'm seeing Bright Eyes next weekend but I'll never look at them the same ever again, still love them but will probably be thinking of your rant the entire time.

Just Thought I Would Let You Know
My friend took me with her to Bright Eyes last night at the Hollywood Forever cemetery. I thought everybody at the show was an asshole. But to all of you Conor fans who maybe missed the show and were upset about it (and who think I’m an asshole), I just wanted to point out that I went and you didn’t. SUCK IT BITCHES. Okay, I’m an asshole. Sorry.

eroticchestpunch asked: I really think your blog works well in the same vein as an editorial section of a magazine. (Especially with the images and the italicized captions). Your comebacks are zingers, rather than: "Well, you're an asshole because you like something that I don't like and that makes you the worst," but rather, armed by those same comments. It's rad. I kinda wanna see some reviews...

how i got here
so I was looking for some cool music to listen to.  something folky, something singer songerwriter-y, shit like that.  Thats what I was in the mood for.  so i’m just previewing a bunch of garbage on last.fm which is the shittiest site ever ( I hate those fucking 30 second previews, but I guess in this case it was good so I didn’t have to listen to an entire track of bullshit.)  There...

Fucking Fake People Are Fucking Annoying
So there is this girl I know who told me recently that this guy has been texting her and he’s super weird and she doesn’t want to talk to him. So I’m like, “okay then fucking don’t, why are you telling me this?”. And she’s like, “I’m so creeped out! Blah blah blah!”. So I say again, “alright just don’t fucking reply...

Anger.
For the first time in a very long time I found my self upset. Eventually I calmed myself down and put whatever was making me upset in the past. I did this on a drive home by yelling at the stars. I’m interested to know how other people deal with anger, or depression, or confusion. What makes you feel good when you are upset?

Conor Oberst: Asshole Of The Century
A lot of people have read my post “Conor Oberst Is An Asshole” and probably assume I have an unjustified hate for this man, which is mostly true. Most of you probably have assumed I have not taken the time to listen to his music, which is not true. I thought’d I’d take the time to point out my top five Bright Eyes songs and why they don’t suck like most of the songs. ...

The State Of My Mind; Annoyance; Exhaustion Noted
I think everyone goes through periods of time where they don’t get much sleep. Maybe it’s because they are depressed, maybe it’s because they are bored, or maybe it’s because they just don’t like sleeping. Eventually it doesn’t even matter what the issue was to begin with because over time it becomes all three. I don’t know. But I’m sure everyone has...

EPISODE 5: THE HIPSTERS STRIKE BACK
I wasn’t going to do a new post today, but after I saw a recent reply to one of my posts I just couldn’t help it. If you don’t follow my blog or have begun reading this post out of context, go back a couple of pages, do some light reading, and catch up. Anyway, back to what was going on, I recently found this on my dashboard: Now let’s just take a moment to let this...

Oberstcult Part IV: The Asshole Saga Continues
Oberstcult has continued, yet again, to prove her intelligence by responding to my posts on Tumblr. Let’s examine her newest response.   First Oberstcult continues to make the assumption that I am hipster by claiming that I have admitted to be one in a previous post. This is false, I only said I would become a hipster if it meant it would further our romantic relationship.  Second, she...

Oberstcult: Hipster Asshole
Oberstcult doesn’t give up. And that’s a quality we should all admire.  Upon waking up and finding several questions in my inbox, I also found yet another response from my favorite Tumblrerer, “oberstcult”. I find she has a way with words, and I think that if we met in real life we would probably be best friends. Maybe even more than that. One can only hope. First, I...

Questions
So I woke up this morning and logged on to find a few questions, which is fantastic, because I fucking love questions. I thought I’d make a post and answer a few of them the best I could.  First, let’s just get the shitty question out of the way. What is it with you people and fucking irony? Do you really think this hard about these things? And by the way, what’s with you...

A Night With Sufjan Stevens
I’m not going to lie. I’m a Sufjan Stevens fan. I think his stuff is pretty great. And when I heard he was going on tour last year I was super excited. So, like any good fan, I bought tickets the second they became available. One for me, and one for my girlfriend at the time. Now my girlfriend wasn’t the biggest Sufjan fan, but she could appreciate his music and she was excited...

I read your bit on Conor Oberst. I wept while reading it. I then proceeded to visit your page, and cry some more, marveling at the beauty of your infinite wisdom.
Long story short, I look forward to your future posts.

The Tree Of Life Review
So the other day I decided I would go see “The Tree Of Life” before it left theatres. I had been looking forward to it for a while and it sounded like a great movie. Plus, the critics were giving it rave reviews. I was expecting see an instant classic. Instead I got a thirty minute sequence that included some jellyfish swimming around and bunch of dinosaurs. EXT.

Re: Re: Conor Oberst Is An Asshole
Alright… I’m try to make my next response easy to read. First, I’d like to point out how much of a hipster you are by saying “problem?”. Second, Coldplay is a mom band. Third, yes.

Re: Conor Oberst Is An Asshole
Just thought I’d respond to one of the responses to my post “Conor Oberst Is An Asshole”. Or should I say three responses because they edited it three fucking times before they decided it was annoying enough to leave. First I will respond to this one. I guess that would be the long story short if you want to be a Conor Oberst fucking love festival. And yes she did dump me. But...

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall Sucks Balls
I haven’t always had the great fucking taste in music that I have now. In fact, before my sophomore year in high school the only thing I listened to were movie scores and one edited Blink 182 CD that some family member no one invited to my birthday party probably bought for me. In middle school my friend had an iPod and because I was a fucking kid in middle school I wanted what other kids...

Conor Oberst Is An Asshole
So when I was in high school I dated a girl that loved Conor Oberst. And she didn’t just “love” Conor Oberst like I love pizza. She loved Conor Oberst in the creepy way where if she met him in an alleyway she would probably let him rape her mouth. Okay, now I realize she might love him in the way I love pizza because in a sense I do let pizza rape me in the mouth. But she would...
