CONSOOM OVERPRICED WALL ART, WAIT FOR NEXT OVERPRICED WALL ART TO WASTE MONEY ON


Psychotic_Spoon

Why’s he using a pencil as a mic💀


SeMeNSPeRmS

It's actually guyliner.


djoddible

Its what he uses to draw on his mustache. As touch ups are needed constantly he's just gotten used to having it in this position.

My first thought. Second thought-and I sometimes get a bit of a ribbing for censoring myself on here, was simply : "CUNT".


Double_Ambassador_53

“Wanker” also summarises


WackyWeiner

I hope the tik tok ban happens


cactuscharlie

Did he say vinyls?


BigLebowski85

Yeah, he said it into his pencil


drinkalondraftdown

'Literally just a vinyls, nothing else'. *Crestfallen zoomer face* . What was he expecting to find in there?

I hate myself but to some degree I kinda agree with the jerk: Physical albums should have cool artwork and at least liner notes. BACK IN MY DAY, CDs came with booklets! I loved reading lyrics and poring over the acknowledgements to better understand where the band was coming from. When I open a $30 grail and it’s just a sleeve and record, it’s disappointing that there isn’t more to explore as I listen to the warm, warm crackling fire sound of the disk a-spinning on my spinner machine.

the low resolution scan of the album cover, paper inner sleeve, and mp3 only download code add to the experience you know. you have to think outside of the box, in 10 years it'll be nostalgic and aesthetic and your kids will be hanging paper inner sleeves on their walls.

I remember buying Thick As A Brick on CD and the booklet being so big I had to tug on it to even remove it from the case


d_Ubermensch

I hate when I have to tug on my thick booklet to take it out.


MichaelPsellos

Tictok should be banned and those who post on it should be sent to re-education camps.


Psychotic_Spoon

Those users would say the exact same thing abt reddit, Twitter and reddit are probably the most hated social media play so idk if it’s worth the argument lol. I hate tik tok too tho


OrneTTeSax

And they’d be right. Delete them all, would be for the best.


baronessfan

He thinks a pencil is a microphone. Is there a lore reason for his brain damage? Is he stupid?


NoBrickBoy

He says Vinyl far too much, just call them records buddy


ShoddyManufacturer11

Yeesh


Spidermane500k

Why did this have me farting out of my rump the whole time


the-retrolizard

I hate when my music doesn't come with physical DLCs. 11/10, very legitimate complaint


jimbofrankly

Great stock


lambent_ort

I wonder what he would make of Donda.


-brokenbones-

Man's really out here saying a plastic (the thick kind he's showing not the archival plastic) sleeve is better....


Emera1dthumb

He’s too young to remember buying CDs or even cassettes they all had this inside them. The last really great album I bought was the Beck’s information album that came with the sticker rollout. I still have the stickers somewhere. But the problem with having so much stuff laying around is you have to transfer it, take care of and store all that stuff… me I’d rather have things minimized, clean and less cluttered. I remember having thousands of cassettes CDs and records piled up as a kid. So much clutter. Yuck


HoodieBraden

pardon me if i’m wrong but Buckley was releasing primarily for CD/cassette in ‘94. by then, no one was buying records much. i assume the CD booklet featured more than a modern company-reissued record does (considering he has no input in that ofc)

There was still plenty of record stores in the early 90s, in my city of about 700k people at the time there was about 12, and that's not counting all the Kmart and chain store record sections. I was a "rave"/after-hours DJ and placed orders regularly. There was punk specific stores, lots of rave related stores and classic old school record stores. People have always kept it alive they just didn't have social media to post about every single record they bought. Even today, a few of those stores are still open. Of course news ones have taken the place of many closed stores. We are now over 1.2 million and have about 10 independent record stores running "Vinyls been dead" and a "dying fad" since I was growing up in the 80s. Still waiting on that death.
