  1. when the editor of stereogum.com scott lapatine, seen here buried alive at the bowery ballroom, posted the open ended phrase

  2. Uh oh, are hipsters totally dead now?

    There needs to be a yupster term for the Myspace generation. And what about the scenexcore kids? Is that dead now too?!

    OMG. What a total disaster. Although Stereogum is still teh totally hawtness.

  3. and 13375p34k has been around how long?

  4. Well, that’s just hilarious.

    It’s like when my dad tries to explain to similarly old friends what a blog is.

  6. That lady’s voice makes me want to shoot myself.

    Ouch. Can’t you picture the people meeting when they came up with the concept for that? “We need someone edgy, hip … a gal with spunk who knows what the kids like these days!”

  8. Heh.
    She pronounced “pwn” as “pone”.

    Well that was needlessly lame.

  11. I hope this site has recovered from the CRAAAZY traffic!

    I’m still surprised she didn’t add “to the extreme!!” to all of her descriptions.

  12. That had E! Entertainment slapped all over it. And I wanted to slap SHUT UP all over her face

    Lawyerlike, I think you meant to say “to the X!TREME!”

  14. Google has gone too far!

    that will leave me scarred for the next sixteen minutes or so.

  16. That was pwncomfortable to watch. I’m not sure her heart was in it.

    Good Jesus that woman was obnoxious.

    But anyway, I actually think she summed up net slang somewhat well, however uncomfortable that may have been to watch.

  18. Does google actually take this “Current” thing seriously? Save for the overly elaborate intro, this looks like something a college journalism student put together the night before his project was due. That girl is just trying WAY too hard.

    Easily the most painful thing i’ve watched in a long time.

    I’m sorry, did she say that urbandictionary.com is the reason people describe things as emo?

  20. how is any of what she said even remotely “current”?

    and I’d like to hit the “ack she is obnoxious” tetherball as well

  21. I SO don’t want to Google this bitch.
