The first one ever, Ted Leo's Everybody Wants to Rule the World, still wins for me.

It doesn't matter, and I can see why you said it, but

…  what were you expecting on the Unsung Films of 2011 list?

I don't understand this metaphor!

Come on, presumably-lady, you're not mad because some new band isn't being covered, it's because you really, really like Paul McCartney.

He/she just seems to be a bit of a defensive Dexter fan.

No, we don't need that test, because he said the most stereotypically hipstery thing one can say, "I was into something popular before it was cool." and it didn't add to the discussion in any way - he just wanted people to know he knew about Louis before they did. So we don't need the test.

What about Ghost of Eazy E? Haven't seen him in a while.

Sorry, I should have gotten the rest of the story, I didn't realize he was transgender.

Where does drag racing fit in there?

How does Chaz Bono normalize homosexuality? Only to the extent that he exists and is gay?

@avclub-fbb2cc7d2c011ca2df158dc094b86ea9:disqus I think it's closer to what you said, because when Jim was interviewing for the job David Wallace seemed to have a deep hatred for his HR guy.

It is not for no reason that the original title of the first novel translates literally to "Men Who Hate Women".

There's not much more infuriating to me than someone dismissing your opinion on something because the thing in question is popular, so you must just automatically like/dislike it because you're a sheep/hipster.

Yeah, I retched a little bit at that line. But it wouldn't be the AV Club if every third article didn't have people saying something weird gender politics-wise.

You know just saying "not to sound hipster" doesn't make you not sound like a hipster, right?

Does anyone else find it weird and offputting that he calls his podcast "The Smartest Man in the [ed:World]"? I mean, yes, I know it's a joke, and if he didn't constantly refer to Baudelaire and Baudrillard (et cetera) and make jokes in French, it would be fine.
