Indie isn’t a genre, it’s a distribution model. An emo band can be indie. Just like a band playing Springsteen-inspired heartland rock can be indie. A rapper can be indie. A band playing post-punk derived music can be indie. And an indie band, if they sign to a major label, is no longer an indie band.

I'm surprised that a perpetual never-was whose toxic alcoholism blew every shot he ever at stardom actually possesses enough power to ruin other people's carers. Not saying it isn't true. Not saying it isn't shitty that he did. Just surprised is all.

Roxy Roller is such a jam. It would be perfect on a future Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack.

This. I admittedly don't listen to the the radio a lot, but I've never heard him on the radio.

I never would of imagined an addict would be so needy and dependent on others.

Reckless is a great pop album. I'll die on this hill lol.

One of them was from Windsor and another was from Michigan.

I say this as a kid from late 80s/early 90s. Cartoons from that era, looking at them with my adult eyes, were trash. GI Joe, ThunderCats, He-Man, Shera, even Transformers. Pure trash. There are exceptions that do still hold up, like Batman The Animated Series, but those are rare.

I miss the anonymity of bulletin boards and chat rooms. I still feel weirded out when sites use your Facebook profile and real name in comments sections (Disqus, for example.)

Did it occur to you that the staff at Kotaku might not know what goes on in the brony fandom? But no. It can’t be that. It has to be malicious.

The transition to an all-volunteer armed forces was one of the most damaging blows to American democracy. It has encouraged a culture of deference towards the military, and it removed one of the most convincing incentives to be informed of and care about foreign policy issues. For the average American, wars are now…

You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.

It was the end of what was, to them, the known world. In that sense, the colonization of the Americas was apocalyptic. You just have to consider events from a certain historical and cultural perspective.

You’re implying that the genocide of of North Americas First Peoples isn’t ongoing. I would humbly disagree with such an implication. As would the many families affected by the current crisis of Missing And Murdered Indigenous Women in the United States and Canada. I’m quite certain the many people’s whose mother…

The only two East Asians. Symmetra is Asian too.

No, check in line because if there is a mistake you don't have to go inside or go through the drive thru a second time to correct it.

I blame NIMBYs. San Francisco is unaffordable because housing supply has not kept up with demand for housing. The housing supply hasn’t kept up because NiMBY idiots fight tooth and nail against urban densification.

Blame the idiot NIMBYs who fight tooth and nail to block any sort of high rise development. If there were enough units of housing to meet demand, people like you wouldn’t be priced out of the market.

Because Magic The Gathering doesn't have an established metagame with established top tier decks that blow away the janky homebrew stuff?

You could also mention that the ute's a beaut and the raptor has a face like a sucked mango.
