Single funniest short I've ever seen.
Especially when the dude bitchslaps that chick for not knowing what pitchfork is...

Post by: Unosuke on 27 Feb 2006, 10:01: Ha, I like it, especially when that guy said he was probably in a band with Sufjan Stevens....or something.

Post by: rive gauche on 27 Feb 2006, 12:36: The only part I thought was funny was that they didn't pronounce anything properly, like Sujfan.

Post by: TrueNeutral on 27 Feb 2006, 13:00: I wonder what he'd do if someone told him they hated Pitchfork.

Post by: Kai on 27 Feb 2006, 15:10: The only really good part was the guy saying "indietastic". It was so cheesy it made ME cringe.

Ahaha, I couldn't figure out WHAT you were talking about.

Post by: jcknbl on 27 Feb 2006, 23:09: The indietastic line was pretty funny, as was shooting the guy for asking about the Garden State soundtrack. The thing is though, mocking people requires taking traits the already possess and blowing them out of proportion. However, I don't know a single indie rock fan that actually LIKES Pitchfork. Plus real clerks wouldn't be talking about bands that are so well known.

Also, the Arctic Monkees are terrible.

Me neither. Or at least no one will admit to it. The indie thing nowadays is Pitchfork-bashing, it seems.

Post by: Mikendher on 28 Feb 2006, 09:55: I also like pitchfork. If that makes me not indie then whatever :-)

The bearded one really needed a trucker hat.

Either someone reads Nothing Nice to Say or I just love Mitch Clem far too much for my own good. PS: That video's solid gold, I giggled at the butchering the hell outta Devendra Banhart's name.

Post by: Skibas_clavicle on 01 Mar 2006, 14:05: Don't forget San Antonia Rock City! It's pretty darn amusing, and Mitch's drawings of Nardwar make me laugh. READ IT *shakes fist threateningly*

Post by: Houdinimachine on 01 Mar 2006, 17:04: The moment they brought up Interpol I was like, "Wait... these guys aren't Indy snobs."

I mean, I've heard more Interpol songs on the radio than Bravery songs.

Post by: jcknbl on 01 Mar 2006, 19:02: What I would do for a radio station that played anything close to Interpol...

Seriously, I end up changing from the rock station to the pop station constantly because while the rock station is painful to listen to at least the pop station is basically just a drum machine with someone singing occasionally.
