Did yall watch the Grammys?

Yall.. I didn’t watch the Grammys cuz I’d rather just read reactions to it on the internet, then pretend that I watched it/was there/I am connected to the modern world. Seemed like a real celebration of things that are kinda mainstream but letting more alt artists in2 the show. Some of my favourite bands like MIA, Radiohead, and the Jonas Bros were on display. Maybe next year I’ll be invited?

Question 1) When an alt artist wins a grammy, I feel

a) validated
b) like I accomplished something
c) a lil bit sad that I am losing a part of me
d) pissed off about my fave band selling out
e) just wanna ‘get buzzed’ and dance to bloghaus + ironic pop

Question 2) M.I.A. is

a) just a meme
b) pregant
c) should have stayed home
d) trying too hard 2 reach out 2 mainstream audiences
e) just taking care of herself/her career

Question 3: Deadmau5 will be remembered as

a) a zany masked DJ
b) just some weirdo at the Grammys
c) “what is that bro doing at our show?” -Taylor Swift
d) being responsible for bringing ‘masked djs’ to the mainstream
e) just a meme on the day after award shows


Question 4: This is a picture of


a) the coldplays
b) a band that steals songs
c) the writers of the rock album + song of the year
d) bros who need to retire their gimmick
e) Cool dads searching for meaning


Question 5: These bros are chilling at


a) the Grammys
b) A Cool Dad convention
c) A Kidz Health convention
d) A McDonalds playgrond
e) A liberal arts professor conference


Question 6: When I see this single, I think it is


a) Just another bloghouse mp3
b) just another crappy mp3 posted by a lame entrylevel blog on the hypemachine looking to get hits
c) worth a Grammy
d) the best Remix of all time
e) other

Question 7: Kanye West won a grammy for

a) Best frollet
b) Best blogger of the year
c) Worst black person of the year in America
d) JackOfAllTrades/Renaissance Man of the year
e) Best guy who sounds like a robot on his albums

Question 8: Who wore it better?


a) the broad on the left
b) the broad on the right
(this is a test 2 see if ur a racist)

Question 9: The Lonely Island Bros are


a) going to win a Grammy in 2k10
b) a gimmick for bros
c) comedy for bros
d) glorified bro Weird Al bullshit
e) really funnie
f) really progressive
g) going to make the Flight of the Conchords obsolete for bros
h) something for people who smoke weed and watch dvds/ funnie youtube vids

Question 10: This bro won a Grammy for

a) best assault of a broad
b) best knuckle sandwich 2 a broad’s face
c) Best job of ‘putting a woman in her place’
d) Most likely 2 be the next OJ Simpson
e) Future Ike TurnerBro
f) Strongest Pimp Hand
g) Artist of the Millennium who Hits Women
h) Bro Who is above the law
i) bro who is above society’s norms


Question 11: Daft Punk won some Grammy because


a) they deserve it for this live album thingy
b) there are too many Awards categories
c) people only heard of them after Kanye West cobranded with them for that meaningful duet about becoming stronger on the inside

Question 12: Christian Bale won a grammy for


a) being Heath Ledger’s BFF
b) being in Batman
c) becoming a viral meme on audio
d) pretending ‘to get angry’ as a marketing gimmick for the new Terminator film so that Entertainment Magazines will profile him as being ‘complex’ and ‘deep’ and ‘really into his craft’
e) he sang a lot in Newsies

Question 13: The name of this band is


a) 3 Tweens and a Blind Black Man
b) Blind, Black, and Musical: The Band
c) Searching for Our Sexuality thru the blindness
d) Bro Circle Jerk in a room with a blindman

b) Paramore
c) Blink 182
d) Girls Aloud
e) The Pussy Cat Dolls
f) Aqua
g) Jen Aniston and the Skanky McSkankBroads
h) Chris Brown’s “Pimp Hand”

Can’t believe I missed the Grammys. Feel really ‘out of the loop.’ Just want to connect 2 ‘pop culture’ since it is kind of the fabric of society that relates us all.

Kinda feel like this picture represents the state of modern music.
In this picture is everything that we want.
We want bloggable content with stars who attract viewers by saying zany things and being progressive enough to blurb about.

Did yall hear M.I.A. is pregnant?
Are yall excited about how twitter gives u such direct and instant access 2 ur fave celebs while they are at a meaningful event like the Grammys?

    c. Searching for our Sexuality thru the Blindness sounds like an idea for a dark conceptual-core bromo-erotic video, perhaps giving the ‘Jobros’ a chance to realize more honest personal brands. Its funny, I haven’t even heard these n00bs and here i am commenting on them.

    the correct answer, however, is e.

    Also, why are lil wee-z, B.I.G.M.I.A and H.O.V.A wearing sunglasses? Are they showing support for stevie wonderbro despite his jonasbromosexual collaboration? How many people are going to think im racist/sexual orientationist?

    got a lot to say carles! this post is good.

    –is there a mashieuppy category?
    –who is that crazy cool dad with the zany hair behind the coldplays? and yes they need to retire that gimmick.
    probably wore those jackets so that you could blog about the french revolution jacket trend.
    –m.i.a. wore it better because she accessorized better, a whole baby, c’mon that shit is expensive.
    –why is lil wayne(not sure if it’s him or just some black dude of the street) touching maya’s belly with that nasty grin on his face? wtf yall, what is up with his grill, i don’t know who allowed that to be cool.
    –def got all the grammys coverage i needed via diplo’s twitter. thanks! shoulda met him at coy restaurant.
    –why was deadmau5 there????
    –jen anniston’s friends look pretty skanky. has jennifer connelly eaten anything lately? i don’t like seeing two tree branches emerge from under a green dress, too confusing.

    thanks carles. love you.

    good post.

    Definitely nailed it with Kanye’s worst black person of the year in America.

    I hear that now that Gerard Bushbro is no longer prez he’s gonna ‘get into making music’. Hear he wants to remix that kanyefggtbro. Really looking forward to his debut EP.

    PS. are the coldplays trying to be the powerrangerfggtbros or the teletubbiefggtbros [via coloured military jackets]? s0 confused by their zany personal brand.
