Seems like nothing relevant is happening.

Seems like nothing relevant is happening. I am not sure if my weblog is ‘too relevant’ or ‘not relevant’ at all. Maybe I am losing touch with ‘the world.’ Maybe I have outgrown indie alt stuff. Maybe it’s time 2 move on. Maybe I should just apply for a _____ internship. Does n e 1 know a ‘relevant topic’ 2 blog about, or is it just time 2 end it all?

gnite world.

    feels like visiting a friend who is sick in the hospital but is trying to be really independent and feed themselves. but always has gross half-chewed food on their face that you try not to stare at. and the whole time you keep thinking, i almost wish they would just die so i wouldn’t have to come back here.

    with your theory of self branding, you gave me a goal in life, I already had some before I read you but now that’s different, I’ve got this everyday’s goal to be meaningful, in the music I listen to, the way I dressed up, my facebook statue, my facebook profile picture….
    I’m not able to blog, I couldn’t express an idea like this and I think that very few people can (do it well), U can, who ever u are Carles.

    From the comments of: Some blog creates ‘HRO Manual of Style’… analyzes HRO… seemed applicable to this post…
    I don’t get any of this infinitely self-analytical, post modern american pop culture shit. Why in the name of God did someone spend so much time analysing the Hipster Runoff blog?
    In the old days people with brains to burn used to write novels or some shit. Now it seems they devote their time to vapid parlour games obsessing over tiny, molecular aspects of an alternative culture that is disappearing so fast up its own arse, that there will be nothing left except a flickering set of inverted commas floating over a vacuum somewhere in brooklyn.

    Are videogames a hipster thing? Hipsters seem to be afraid of vgames, but every one that I know either plays games and pretends they don’t around other hipsters or they casually acknowledge that Rockband is “nice”.

    Or, you can always talk about the underrepresented hipster ethnicities that you haven’t gotten to yet. (i.e. make one up)

    Dear Carles,
    I feel like you got stuck.
    Now you have to deal with a niche market for the ages 15-20.

    There is a lot of BAD ASS SHIT in the world wirth talking about (jus watch Ted Talks for inspiration) and you only talk about the teenage “ROCK AND ROLL SO COOL” scene. Sorry Dupes but I don’t think we need another woodstock gen.

    Hate to say it but in a way, I think you know that you are kind of becoming the dudes you makes jokes at.

    Thas why you never show your face, because like 80 people&blogs would shit on you.

    I am sorry that you have to blog about things that were cool in our frosh year of Uni.

    I think you are funny&$ick&cool&relevant&$weet&$mart&hip

    yes, don’t grow up yet. the same thing happened to me a few months ago. i got sick of torrenting ‘inde-rock’ playlists and reading pitchfork and my attempt(s) to be relevant and authentic. so i started listening to post-hardcore and got really into that scene. (nawt recommended) and then i stepped back and realized that it really wasn’t for me. so i stuck with my hipster roots and did what gsus wanted me 2 do on planet earth.
    take a trip somewhur. go to brooklyn and teach people how to read. just sit down and think. is this the life you want to leave with having? what else can u do?

I spend 3 months in brooklen just eating jewfood and talking to blackppl. best experience of my life (yall).

    just saw this video 2day.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYlZiWK2Iy8

    so is it alt to dislike/compare the democrats to nazis now? feel like that girl probably chills out to the dirty Projects when she has some down time and his not harassing congressmen.

    I’m a little bit afraid I won’t be able to join th GOP before everyone else, so then it looks like I’m just riding the band wagon. Should I join the GOP asap? Will the GOP accept me? Is it superficial to join a political party “just because the stylish/popular poeple of you generation are doing it?”

    I also kind of want to “hate gay people.” Is this my constitutional right? Can I logically blame any attempts at health care reform on gay people and immigrants?

    I think we’re headed into an era of Generational Crisis (caused entirely by poor poeple+women who had insatialble appetites for debt) it probably won’t turn out well. I’m personally going to move to a third world country like India/Bhutan/Panama/tibet/Brooklyn, to ride out the storm. See ya’ll on the other sides. (vote palins in 013.)

    Carles: I totaly expected a Jugaloo post from you.
    I think you need to stop talking about shit Mainstream bands, even if you are making fun of them. HRO is supposed to be above that. We, the readers, are supposed to already know relevant topics and then we come to HRO for the analysis. I feel like alot posts lately are targeted to tween (highschool aged kids), and a lot of the comments are from tween (highschool aged kids). This brings the whole authenticity of this site down. Truly authentic bros are twenty -somethings that are already culturally aware and they know every band on gvsb, pf4k, stereogum, hypemachine, their local scene. Go back to making this site for people in the know and not just a site explains things to entry levelers / emo kids.
    I just started rambling…sorry folks.

    there really isn’t anything happening. everybody trying to grab at ‘fame,’ [via shitty music brands 'making it'/opening 'possibilities'], alts aren’t consuming and being fans in ways like at the beginning of the decade. music acquisition and concert attendance = ‘fame watch’ [via storm watch on fox/ktla/upn]. attention spans shortened (further). product oversaturation.

    i predict the growing demographic of mixecalts will forge their own shitty brand to consume and follow [via the marses volta v.4.__ ] and vintage alts [via old age] will listen to vintage country music (again).

    carles you need to shut it down. you seem too full of doubt (all the time you question your self (and others)) and the ‘cultural relevance’ is channeled through a voice that speaks for no one. but you won’t shut it down, because you dug a hole that’s too deep. don’t kill your self though. maybe Chilli’s will hire you (drum role).

    well done, Carles. you really have become a man at the top. there is nothing left for you to do, here. everyone’s trying to get a stake of your blog, with every interviewer hinting at bringing you over through buying your shirt. they are looking at you at awe and they’re wondering how to get these children back to their culture-troughs.

    i understand, though. you’re a smart guy, and there’s no challenge in this anymore. it was good, though.

    think you should just stick out until Tao Lin releases his book. it’s still interesting how you guys are ’seeding’ that meme.

    good luck.

    Don’t get discouraged Carles, you are truly a blessed bro. Imagine how many people would kill to have the most culturally relevant blog of them all, and you get to be the lucky one.

    If you’re looking for material, how about “Top Ten Most Tuggable Babes in the Indieverse”

    List should include Zooey Deschanel, Alison Mosshart (oh sorry is she to mnstrm?), Emily Haines, and the lead singer chick from the Dirty Projection Machines.

    Suggestions anyone? Help me out here.

You have officially driven yourself crazy. Now go read a book. Or make another post about the Wavves guy. It’s all the same to you isn’t it?
