    Clearly moderator abuse. That thread was the merriam-webster's definition of what's really.

    I'm sorry, but how is that guy even still a moderator?

    Seriously.

    The foulness.

    Me and the boy Aleit were subjected to an MIA album last night as we watched the Allstar game. I was newly annoyed at all of you little dudes who have mistaken it for important music. Schitt's unlistenably bad.

    What type of stan plays M.I.A. albums when there's a basketball game on, and what type of stans hang w/ aforementioned M.I.A.-listening stans?

    Especially considering the boy Aleit's NOLA ties.

    Long gone are the days, apparently, when he would sweetly coo "Big Chief" over the phone to me.

    He doesn't come up to the shop and do that?

    You know how it is when you're out on the road.

    Ever since he came home, things ain't been the same...

    A female hipsteur bartender (whom we were not "hanging" with).

    You weren't "hanging"? Well shit, were you at least grooving to some tunes?????

    There was a basketball game on last night? All I saw was an alley-oop and slam dunk demonstration.

    Apparently, only the rare threads I contribute to get deleted. So the question for the strut is...should I contribute more (and thereby increase the thread deletion rate) or should I contribute less?

    Your answers are not binding on my post count.

    mildly curious re: what in a thread about MIA would be so potent and/or embarassing as to inspire deletion...

    It exposed how much of the strut is from the sound of todays hipster youth.
    And so it had to go...

    Yes, I believe it demonstrated that many of us sound old, and are too real for our own good.

    I'm finding it hard living with that knowledge.

    there are worse things than being simply old & out-of-touch; you could be old, out-of-touch & also championing MIA in a foolish attempt to 'remain current' or 'keep up with what the kids are into these days'

    Schitt's unlistenably bad.

    Saw some newer live footage (could tell by the haircut) a while ago - I was floored at her lack of talent.

    In the studio with the right mics and the right production team and all the number of takes it takes and the right fixes, it can get to just (un)listenably bad, and you can chalk it up to difference in tastes. But to hear her live, which sounded like something being hurt over and over because she can't think on her feet or sing - cmon, no wacky homemade costume in the world or possibility of hipster girl-/boy-love can justify it.

    well, the only time I have knowingly heard MIA is when Odub lauded it on NPR

    his review of Queen Latifah's jazz album escapes my memory tho

    I am curious what you all think of:

    1) Lady sovereign
    2) Reggaeton
    3) Banghra

    Because to me, it sounds just like a mash of all these stiles, and any track that can get half the girls in the club dancing gets my strong approval, i mean honestly, is 3:21 of your life too much to spare for dancing ladies?
