― Treeship, Tuesday, 6 August 2013 13:56 (twelve years ago)

frank turner's video looks like a car commercial

― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 6 August 2013 14:00 (twelve years ago)

Man I'll only defend three of these (Postal Service, Bright Eyes and LCD), but the way the poll options are structured means I'll abstain.

Wait, why would you actively hate LCD?

― Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 6 August 2013 16:04 (twelve years ago)

Yeah, that really seems like the odd man out.

― how's life, Tuesday, 6 August 2013 16:04 (twelve years ago)

LCD Soundsystem have never seemed hateable to me. They just make bad & boring music. Since when is that a crime?

― 誤訳侮辱, Tuesday, 6 August 2013 17:51 (twelve years ago)
