People who still praise Daft Punk have allowed their brains to atrophy for lack of stimulation. You'll grow senile; girls will laugh at you. Finally, you'll be seen on a park bench, penis all out of your trousers.

I used to listen to a burned CD of Daft Punk in my Corolla hatchback. That car wore out; it wore out, like Daft Punk's listenability.

And I don't care if Daft Punk is new to you; if you've never heard Around The World before, I don't care. It's not OK for you to like it as much as I did when it came out. Be better than I was; look forward not back. It's Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj for you. That's your lot.

it's fine to like things. it's fine. it's fine! but if there was a venn diagram of people who say daft punk is their favourite band and idiot fuckers, it'd almost be a circle. that's not the fault of daft punk, they make good music and it's okay to like them. it's just that... you know... idiot fuckers. they're


they're bad. not good.

i generally like nicki minaj and i don't get that when i'm browsing imgur in search for funny pictures of cats, i see all these posts that are super down about her. like saying she's not good, she makes bad music, she looks like miss piggy or something. i guess it's because the site is full of teens, but it's still pretty annoying.

or like the bieber hate. i mean, i don't listen to his music and i guess that prevents me from becoming super angry about him, but i guess i just don't care enough to waste thousands of words on him and make stupid fw: fw: fw: pictures where he gets hosed by 2pac or something?



actually i do get all that it's probably something to do with forming in-groups and reinforcing bonds by finding something to hate as a group and other wild sociology poo poo like that. i guess it's better than hating the blacks.

Daft Punk has always screamed to me "thing that will be considered a quaint and slightly embarrassing artifact of the time period twenty years from now."

It's because people on imgur like to feel superior to "normal" people who enjoy regular pop culture

There was a guy running for Arkansas State House last year who filmed a bunch of campaign videos of himself wearing a fedora while talking in front of his bookcase. The top row was all Presidential biographies and the next row down was all hardcovers of the Wheel of Time and GRRM series.

He's since pulled them from YouTube :(
