y/n whiney's anti-intellectualism plays a role in why he loathes a show about people trying to better themselves academically

oh my god - I think this image will literally cause whiney to physically disassociate into his component atoms

harsh but fair

needs a trucker hat photoshopped in

haha I actually decided against trucker hat, but had considered it

no, i think you should do community now

enh whineys basically right that the main demo for community is the sort of mildly overweight office worker dudes who think theyre so much so smarter and edgier than their coworkers cuz they love mnstrm indie rock and finished a whole palahniuk book once. like the kind of dude who wrote a ~hilarious~ and ~scathing~ rant on facebook when he found via an av club review that ppl still release music on cassette and who sneeringly calls like, decemberists fans 'hipsters'

its still a sometimes funnie show tho, unlike p+r

whiney attacking the show on a demographic level is hilarious because the shows he DOES like are in the exact same tumblr whites demo.

which one has the best commercials

omg @ someone asking about "witch doctor" and getting aretha franklin as the answer

and finished a whole palahniuk book once.

as opposed to those real vanguards of culture who have read multiple palahniuk books?

lol

i think the suggestion is that palahniuk is avatar of a certain boringly predictable edginess, but that even that kind of edginess is a kind of edginess u can use as a marker to be all 'hey look at me being edgy from having read haunted'

for my part i prefer palahniuk's early work, and i also have a personal rule that any time i say that out loud i punch myself in the balls.

loooool

whiney weren't you the guy that when detlef schrempf was on p&r you thought he was a fictional basketball player? have you considered that maybe if p&r is sometimes a little bit over your head, then the reason you don't like community might be that it's even further over your head? nb: i've never watched either, just sayin.

i dunno if the references on the show are beyond whiney's recognition, other than maybe he wouldn't have spotted the my dinner with andre thing

'community' probably mentioned foucault a few times idk

ha

tbf rev you only know this bcuz detlef schrempf happens to have played ball in the PNW

i was a big nba junkie all through my childhood cuz

lol @ lamp doing whiney's entire style better in two posts

I honest to God don't mean this as a troll at all except for 100%, but at one point I also had a whole thing about how overly-enthusiastic appreciation of P&R and Community reflected the fundamental loathsomeness of AV Club reader/Videogum commenter/comedy podcast listener/@humblebrag follower/Louie screencap reblogger/bacon vodka infuser/Tom Scharpling music video enjoyer culture and then I got a job where they wouldn't let me work from home every day

^ like a kiln

there's def something about the tone sincerity of community and p&r and its fans "overly-enthusiastic appreciation" of said shows - i don't know that it is fundamentally loathsome tho + in general my life could use a little more sincerity and little less defensive snark

Yeah, I'm just playing. Pretty much all my friends i-r-l are fuckin nerds who watch both those shows and ime furries and bronies are legit much more difficult to avoid outside the internet than the phrase "smartest show on TV" is

golf clap for BH the OTM marker

deeply happy idk even know what half the things in fartz 1st post are

i didn't know about humble brag as a twitter thing until his post, but i've since looked it up and become just a little more misanthropic

Listing all the things you don't like and ascribing them all to some fictional demographic you've created in your head to feel better about your own tastes is nagl, fyi.

aw

I mean, I'll give you videogum comments and @humblebrag as generally terrible things, but I draw the line at lumping Scharpling and WTF in with those things.

feeling like Lamp and fartz could help me finally steer this board into a better direction

i'm not even sure that @humblebrag is the terrible thing about humblebrag - it's just curating terrible human things

*fartz*

was waiting for someone to do this : D

it's so weird when i see people from outside the pnw treat drinking microbrews as some hipster thing instead of something that all guys in all demographics do. also referring to them as "craft beers".
