They're like a million weight watchers point and they taste like…well, like shit.  What's even the point?

I don't follow, I'm sure that the resurrection of a well respected piece of counter cultural history for the purpose of jumping on the money making bandwagon of music festivals will be treated as an unambiguously good treatment of the club's legacy by the not at all sanctimonious hipsters who think about these things.

Since I can only watch The Simpsons on hulu a full week after they air originally, I doubt many people will read this, but I really feel compelled to say how moving and wonderful I thought this episode was.  In general, I have a soft spot for stories that follow a young person's struggle with existentialism- it's a

I'm worried you might be right.  I'm seeing Godspeed You! Black Emperor this summer at Pitchfork, and I was worried that seeing them out doors might suck some of the energy out of the concert.  My hopes are still pretty high, though.

@avclub-df80f70f60b1c678f8c91696f4a54f5f:disqus Oh come on.  Do you not know about LMFAO?  They're the musical equivalent of 30 Jar Jar Binkses having a pod race.

What's really awful is seeing this article headline, rushing to the comments section, and knowing all the good plays on words are all already taken.   Suck it, nerds.

Really? They were the only Jack White project I could get behind, probably because they were more in the alternative camp than the 50s rock/country nostalgic sound a lot of White's projects have.

This is basically my perception of the White Stripes.  The grudge I had at 15 for White for making dad rock hip again really hasn't let up in the last 9 years.

That's what I feel perpetually, at all times in all places.

Yeah, I think this is an important distinction to draw.  I think a lot of conversations about pornography end up up talking past one another because pro-porn people are trying to address how stigmatizing porn is just the latest incarnation of Victorian sexual repression and hatred of the body whereas anti-porn people

Perhaps the issue should not be framed as "this will happen anyway, so we're morally right to do this ourselves" but rather as "if we have a capacity to create something better by intervening but we choose not, that's unambiguously immoral."

I'm just realizing this, but I think of Tom Morello as being both an incredibly innovative guitarist and a one trick pony at the same time.  I'm not totally sure how that is, but I have no trouble doing so.

Oh my fucking christ, I just discovered this album and it instantly dethroned Attack on Memory as my pick for album of the year so far, which is saying something because I really enjoyed AoM.  This record is just wonderful.

Most of the time, it actually ensures there isn't even a first date.

Basically every girl I know is in love with Donald Glover.  He also gets to be an actor and a stand up comic and a musician, all of which he does while being handsome.  From where I'm sitting, he has nothing to feel better about.

I'm not sure if I'm being curmudgeonly or not, but I just couldn't get into La Sera.  It's catchy and well produced and all, but there's just so much stuff out there that's just like it.  Between The Dum Dum Girls, all the Vivian Girls off shoots, Surfer Blood, Smith and Wessons, The Moonhearts Best Coast, Wavves, 

Nah, I liked the way they did cutaways, if only for the fact we got awesome Julia Louis Dreyfus cameos. 

Everyone is doing other projects so they'll have to use a

That better be presented by Tyler Perry.
