SONG OF THE DAY: My 2600


I’m not sure what the correct term for the hat is but those weird Scottish boxer boy selling newspapers hats, where it’s like floppy but with a brim, and not really floppy, and one loose part comes to the brim part? I have never trusted anybody who wears one of those in the modern day. Those people are not to be trusted, ever. Even if going for ironic style, you’re ironically trying to look like an asshole, and I’m not sure why you’d want to do that, unless you’re an asshole, but trying to temper it with humor. I don’t know.
I’ve been trying not to be a hater on shit as much lately, but goddamn, living in a “culture” where identity is more often than not purchased, and where people either change their identities regularly or become these strange piecemeal hybrid identities of the various phases of consumption they’ve indulged in, it’s hard not to hate. I guess I’m not hating the players though – I’m hating the game.
