This might be a controversial opinion, but Darjeeling is my second favorite Wes Anderson movie. I'm just a sucker for the well-placed use of Strangers by the Kinks.

I have pretty much the same problem Kiss Me. It's overlong and kind of uneven, never really made it into my top Cure albums. But Disintegration on the other hand? I can't imagine even a non-Cure fan disliking that album. It's my favorite Cure album (with Pornography in second place) and one of my favorite albums of…

Popular internet jokes seemed to have gotten a lot funnier in the past 10 years. Maybe we're evolving.

Thank you so much for linking that. I forgot how much I missed The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.

Exactly, I keep seeing people mention their "chemistry" but I just don't feel it. I really hope the intention is for Jughead to be asexual, because that would be a much more interesting dynamic, plus I wish there were more completely platonic girl/guy friendships on shows.

Gotta disagree with the last paragraph and say that Closer is, in my opinion, a generic, painfully boring, garbage song. It's the musical equivalent of taking a bunch of quaaludes and standing in a Forever 21.

Am I the only one not feeling Betty and Jughead? It just doesn't feel very interesting or believable. I would have preferred them having an oddball friendship where they solve mysteries and write for the newspaper.

That's good, I guess? Good isn't really the right word, but maybe you get me haha. If the show is correcting some of the problems I had with the book, then maybe I'll give it a watch.

It's not the revenge that's glamourous as much as the whole "this beautiful young girl committed suicide and now it's a ~mystery~" thing, plus how Hannah Baker is a Lost Lenore for the main character.

Yeah, the book totally glamourizes suicide. It also paints it as being a revenge thing; something dramatic teenagers do to get back at everyone. If they had tried to bring awareness to teen suicide and the things that typically cause it (such as, I don't know, mental illness?) it might have been nice, but, alas, they…

I think it works for Fahrenheit 451.

Bobby Moynihan’s days…may be numbered

Haha, yeah of course i'm hyped for that one. It shoulda been included on this list.

Smith Westerns are a little more engaging and lo-fi than Whitney to my ears.

Super excited for the new Spoon, Conor Oberst, and I guess Mount Eerie? I don't think "excited" is the right word for my feelings about that album. It's gonna be hard to listen to, but I also know it'll be beautiful.

"The Lobster would've won."

You know, everyone is saying they feel bad for the La La Land crew, but the real people suffering are all the furious Vox writers who had to delete their half-finished, extremely impassioned for possibly the right reasons thinkpieces.

My first thought when they said La La Land had won was, "Oh god, the thinkpieces. Not the thinkpieces!" So. I'm glad Moonlight won. If not for cultural impact, then for my twitter feed.

I'm partial to Radiohead's cover too, but I love how Xiu Xiu really incorporated their style so that puts it at number one Ceremony cover for me. Galaxie 500's is stunning though.
