ShiftlessRastus      Sometimes reading Vice magazine makes me feel like an asshole. Thus, 5 stars. Also, I am intrigued by the concept of "Vegan Crunk Night".

Ialdabaoth      I feel better somehow knowing that these people exist on the east side of the Atlantic too.

Aelric They might be a little newer over there, actually. It's an Eastward movie plague.

BHWW And before that was the series of episode summaries from Charlie Brooker's satiric channel listings site TVGoHome, featuring the original Nathan Barley via summaries for "Cunt", a supposed documentary show that followed Mr. Barley around and described him as a "worthless moneyed little shit who deserves to die", a view of certain London "new media" types from the beginning of the aughts which someone gathered most of here:

"01-12-2000
5:30 Cunt
Nodding his head and mouthing the words to a Wu Tang Clan number blasting through his Creative Labs MP3 jukebox player headphones Nathan Barley bounds up a set of steps at Old Street Underground station picturing himself in the opening titles of a violent urban thriller, and, lost in this reverie barges past an exhausted young mother struggling with a double pushchair, leading her to fire a string of insults at his vanishing back as he cranks up the volume and imagines a sequence in which his twentysomething anti-hero recieves a blowjob on an escalator while machine-gunning six policemen coming down the descending side to the toe-tapping sound of 'Caught by the Fuzz' by Supergrass."

FABIO      Dickhead is the official term for hipsters over there?
|
Emcee      As much as I think getting all flustered about hipsters is weird, the "I'm starting my own jewelry line, it's like kind of a mix of religious iconography with a Saved by the Bell vibe" line was really funny.
|
FABIO IS THERE ANY GROUP LEFT IT'S STILL OKAY TO MAKE FUN OF?
|
Emcee This isn't a sensitivity thing, this is a "I don't understand virulent internet hate for the completely innocuous latest group of bohemians" thing.
I'm just waiting for YouTube videos ranting about beatniks, is all.
