MAYNOTLAST: Sorry, Haters... (Wildcatfan82, I'm looking at YOU over my laptop while I sit here in Starbucks pretending to be a writer) but when I want a stew of contrived, pretentious twee-ness I put on a White Stripes album: Retro-vinyl, of course. Whaaat!? (Now I'm pounding the air above my head with my palms.) Gotta run -- Zach Galifianakis is on Conan!
TANTRUM: Way off the mark, dude. You are unfamiliar with the term "twee."
MAYNOTLAST: Ahh, thank you. But you probably didn't understand -- I was using it to describe the Pixies. Next...?
TANTRUM: Yeah, the Pixies aren't twee. Nirvana isn't twee. Belle and Sebastian is twee. Hence, you sound foolish..
MAYNOTLAST: You're right, Nirvana isn't twee. But the Pixies are. Frank Black calling himself "Black Francis" nails THAT case shut. (Although can you blame him? He'd be run out of every carefully crafted dive bar in Hipster Heaven with a zaftig moniker like "Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV.") And don't worry, I can sound foolish on way more important topics than these fauxsters. I'd like to discuss Sonic Youth, but I'm afraid my computer will explode with the bile and hatred spewed by all you "opened-minded" musicologists.
Gracias & goodnight.
(and then Wildcatfan82 told mommy on me and I can't post at Fark:Music for a while)
