Mysterious 'buzzband' Neon Indian 'unmasked'... Signs 2 Lesfe Records...Hey yall, do yall watch the television show ‘The Simpsons’? Oh u did when u were a kid? keut.
N e ways…which 1 of these alt-lectro divas looks better in Simpsons paraphernalia?
Alice “Eat My Shorts” Glass from the band Ally and the Crysty Casties?

or LADYHAWKE?
Are the Simpsons ‘alt’? Are they ‘retro’ or just ‘intermediate retro’ or are they ‘thrift-core’?
Remember when obnoxious people with ‘extroverted’ personalities tried to tell u that FAMILY GUY was ‘the future of comedy’, but then they ‘grew up a lil’ and decided to be into smartComedies like the Office, Judd Apatow films, and full seasons of canceled-but-’friggin-brilliant’ comedy series’.
<3 people who have personal brands that = summarizing zany references and events from Fammy Guy and expecting people to find their description to be as ‘hee-lare-ee-ous’ as watching it, and expect that the group of people will respect him as a source of funnie content <3
I don’t have the answer 2 this question, but maybe u do:
What is the alt-est cartoon?
a) Toy Story
b) Wall-E
c) Cool World
d) Beauty and the Alt
e) The Little Mermaid
f) Hipsters in Space
g) this has the potential 2 b the longest multiple choice question ever, but maybe yall should just ‘b creative’ 4 once and Choose.Your.Own.Response

HEY! i know you’re talking about Arrested Development when you say “canceled-but-’friggin-brilliant’ comedy series” and it IS friggin brilliant.
those tools over at fox cancelled it and have some great quality programming in its place now. such as “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”, “Don’t Forget the Lyrics!”, and “The Next Great American Band.”

the altest cartoon was Fantastic Planny. When i saw it i was an entry-level alt on “mushrooms” and i “identified” with it and realized i had “found a group of ppl who would take care of me” through our journeys into obscure subcultures like “france.”
[Reply]
Devin Flynn’s cartoons are highly alt. Partly due to him being a member of Pixeltan.
[Reply]
i dont think monkey dust ever made it big in the us, but the alt-ish electro soundtrack definitely gives it alt-points.

This post sucks. Stick to writing about Chili’s. Enjoying authentic Tex-Mex food is something we can all relate to.

1. acknowledge the power of the arrested dev! you know you (openly? secretly?) luvvv it.
2. i decided to give the ole daria a whirl the other day and it wasn’t funny. at all. like maybe it was funny back in the day when “zomg sarcastic high school girl!” was like something interesting on its own, but it just doesn’t really do much these days.
3. so the simpsons is still on tv. so not really retro pur say, but sorta like if ally glass was wearing a miley cyrus shirt “itz funnie cuz she dusn’t rlly like miley cyrus lololol.” this reminds me of a guy i knew who wore a trucker hat “to make fun of ppl who wore trucker hats”…except at some point, duchebag mcsucksalot thinks you’re really just wearing the goddamn trucker hat (which you are) and thinks you look “cool.” there’s only so far we can push this lameass pomo shit. ally (whose tunes i still like!) is purty close to that “i’m doing it ironically but i’m still doing it” point. maybe she’s already there :P

You shouldn’t forget that Cory Kennedy has a Simpsons shirt too…

It’s alt-iest not retro… I hate reality tv but I couldn’t get enough of “kenny vs. spenny”. Watched all 4 seasons in a row on the torrents. Where else are you going to see the push over and the narcisist bring out the worst in each other.. ok so where were we. arrested devolopment was great. six feet under, anything martin sargent for the geeky alt, the short lived oblongs and mission hill…. props for vintage nick….. oh and tim and eric is hit and miss… but when it hits it hits HARD… I could go on. And I swear I never watch tv.

“Felidae” is the alt-est cartoon evah. It’s foreign (a), and it alludes to Nazi germany and animal cruelty (b). Also, it’s about talking cats. Never before has all three been seen in one film!
