I think it is trendy and cool to hate Clapton. Yes his music is boring but mainly it's because of his appropriation of the blues. He's aggressively inauthentic. He's a white baby boomer who makes beer commercial lead guitar shit music (to paraphrase Mark kozelek). He's the most uncool artist I can think of.

I went to high school in the 80s too and had the same experience although hip hop was something we could all agree on. I felt like and outlier listening to post punk and new wave bands no one else gave a hit about but also that I had discovered something special.

Oh man, my high school experience was way different. Liking obscure or indie music was a liability that score me zero point socially.

Yeah calling DMB's entire fan base date rapists isn't cool or going to win anyone over. It's time to stop associating anything or anyone frat-related with rape as an attempt to prove how lame they are. It's offensive.

QUIT WHILE YOU'RE AHEAD

Netflix seems to renew everything and doesn't disclose ratings but, I would be surprised if Love and Flaked would survive on any other service/channel based off nothing but the fact that they are terrible shows.

I once stopped dating someone for wearing clogs and socks so I'm the wrong person to ask.

Grimes, Radiohead and LCD Soundsystem are the only acts I'm remotely interested in seeing. More than half I don't recognize and the rest I don't care for.

Is there a bad with more aggressively terrible lyrics? Coldplay maybe. Just the worst.

I like this guy! Not really a fan but I was figuratively nodding my head to pretty much every answer he gave.

Loved her character and this movie. It's like a Belle & Sebastian record come to life. I've never seen here in anything else but am looking forward to more of her.

I was ready to shout in the comments WHERE THE HELL IS UNDER THE MILKYWAY? But then I read the article which says they used a Synclavier instead of bagpipes (whatever that is. off to wikipedia…)

Oversized t-shirts, baggy pants, dirty sneakers, baseball hats…. so many indie rock bands in the 90s were so effortlessly normcore before it became an ironic bullshit trend that millennial hipsters latched on to.

As does Foster the People, Minus the Bear, Young the Giant… make it stop.

If you believe in the happiness U curve, most middle aged people are at the bottom waiting for their kids to leave home and parents to die so they can be happy again.

To anyone who thinks high-waisted jeans are unattractive and unflattering, I submit the above pic as a counter argument.

My brother had it. She's standing in a hot tub. I had the Christie Brinkley monokini poster.

My generation's version of jiggle TV was Jennifer Aniston's tight shirts and hard nips on Friends.

prediction: LeBlanc gets peed on in the pilot.
