As a counterexample, the current WWE Champion, whom we all thought was a pretty nice guy, cheated on his fiancee with this (work-safe) unsavory character. http://pwpop.com/wp-content…

Actual Hulk Hogan Twitter quote.

"Real music": David Wise's Battletoads pause masterpiece or anything from Super Donkey Kong 2/Donkey Kong Country 2, preferably danced to while staring at the ground, shuffling your feet, and not smiling

I don't know that Recondite, Nicolas Jaar, or any of the people on 1080p care about this. Are your friends like them, or are they producing what's on top of the Beatport charts?

I saw A LOT of commercials for it, mostly on YouTube and banner ads.

American hip-hop is what it is as historical accident, not because it has to be that way.

5 foreign songs from 2015: go! (I always try to be up on what's new in other countries.)

It's 2015. Everyone can be fake-self-aware and fake-self-deprecating. He gets no points.

I'm hoping he doesn't get taken by hard drugs or depression or anything like that, but I DO hope he gets really into conspiracy theories and uploads 200-minute long avant garde albums to…

Naw, he did have a new comeback special that fizzled, New Territory, and he'll have a new one out this year. 2 duds might kill his national career back down to "touring profitably."

*sniffle* Guyyyyyyyyyysss, we're really kind!

Melancholy is a common trait, and, I think, admirable. No shame!

Yeah, but they present themselves as different from that, both before and now. http://www.theguardian.com/…

Naw, it's 1 of my very favorites, and that includes the people! They're/You're just pretty whiny, especially with regard to politics. There's a historical reason for that, of course, but it seems disproportionate.

Oh, right, I was trying to separate gender trolls from trolls and/or angry people.

Ha ha, now, I want to see a Mayberry Muppet.

And I'd say it draws a direct contrast. "That only matters if you're just listening to sound. Did anyone ever say, 'Do we need another album from the Beatles?'" The "sound changing" sentence leads directly into The Beatles reference.

I agree and think the video reaction was over the top, but I guess in a certain sense I respect the people who were just mad about the video and not Lauren lacking a Y chromosome. Basically, "Is Churches just Lauren And Her Band, now?"
