Yeah, gotta say, me and my other friends who used to read from here a lot have been on muuuch less of late. These comment boards have just gotten wildly out of hand. They've been filled with some of the most degrading, down-right worthless bullying shit I've seen since high school. And "trolling" isn't an excuse, it's a scapegoat. Maybe I'm wrong, but Stereogum (like Consequence of Sound and others) seems to tote itself as more of a publication than a blog. So when I come to the "news" section, I want to LEGITIMATELY read some music news . . . not read the useless, dehumanizing, vain comment of "trolls," and then ALSO see it plastered all over the "news" section.
Seriously . . . add a "blog" section, or something that denotes it as "opinion" if you're going to include blather like this. Tired of the uselessness clogging up my news feed.
To everyone: I apologize for commenting in a comment thread. I didn't realize the negative consequences my actions would have when I originally posted on here, and so I acted instinctively. To those who were hurt, you have my sincerest apologies.
I've strapped in for a world where emo haircuts affecting a user's eyesight and Flying Lotus disliking the new Beach House album counts as trending "news."
Will the real Rubberjohnny please stand up?
Hi, my name is. Hi, my name is. Hi, my name is--chikka chikka--Rubberjohnny.
......cause it feels so empty without Rubberjohnny?
Lately Tyler has seemed like an annoying child but his reaction to this was pretty awesome: "Fuck your goddamn truck and Zac Efron signatures...is that motherfucker alive?"
