Hey yall. Went away to design school…had 2 take summer school because I needed to learn the Fundamentals of Art History and Photoshop. Fortunately I met a few bros who I have a lot in common with. We love music, design, and youtubin’. Know it’s not much, but I think it’s good to stay creative.
Decided to make a video. Do u like it? Glad we all have the same personal brand of ‘bros who are zany and possibly listen to mightmightybosstones/blink182/Tom Green ‘bum bum song.’
Dorm life is chill. My parents didn’t cook much, so I’m not missing any food. Getting used to sharing space with some1. My roommate is a real mainstreamer. Going to talk to my RA about changing my roommate. Hopefully I can pull a double-swap with a bro who I have a lot in common with. Every nite would be a sleepover, and we could play chill music while we study instead of having to use headphones.
Feel lucky to have to take summer school. Probably gonna have a ‘core group of friends’ before every1 else gets here. so I’m happy 4 that.
What r u and ur bros doing to ‘pass the time’ in the summer?
Do u have any tips for selecting a sweet college roommate?

From the self-consciously Monkeesesque antics of the bandmembers in the video, to the post-Rivers-Cuomosian semi-ironic self deprecation of the lyrics, we can safely conclude that Born Ruffians’ “I need a life” is an exemplary work of early Obama-era zanycore.
I will now go write a 10,000 word essay about a bootleg of a Bob Dlyan rehersal session that was recorded over a scratchy CCR cassette ca. 1982.

You didn’t make that music video… I did. I have no idea who the hell you are. Those aren’t dorms, and we’re not in college. Why the hell would you say you made this?

Carles, y? I think you need to “re-evaluate yr life” if you can’t see that these boys are just trying to have a little bit of funsicle. Every time I think of what you may look like I picture a chubby nude asian male. Wonder if my visions r correct.

Those pants are from PacSun. How authentically mainstream profiting off of entry-level altism of these boys.

Hey Carles, I remember you once said you wouldn’t listen to Born Ruffians because they sound like they have a fat lead singer. But now, you’re featuring a video of their song. Have you finally decided to get over your pre-listening prejudice?
