when all you crazy kids come to after your Friday night hedonism, do stumble down to your local newsy - you may find an article of interest in today's Guardian Guide at page 8.
Now, I'm off to Ikea for some light household accessory-buying and a duo of 50p hotdogs.
nobody actually cared. anyone who commented either said 'boring' or 'lol' or just went along with him. i doubt anyone took him for real, and everybody probably thought he was someone else's alter-ego. and 'controversial' threads like that are ten a penny.
but its been twisted by jonze to make it seem more interesting than it actually was. i suppose he is an nme journalist, so its to be expected
.....when i read pigfoots name i nearly choked on my meusli......and came.....Pigfoot is now a celeb.......whats more he even got selectively quoted, not the full quote.
guntrip's put down was actually the most damning in that thread.
i like how he tries as hard as he can to try and find a sentence that sounds "outraged". If he'd quoted that whole post it would have been kind of obvious that no one really cared.
how this whole thing being exposed is getting far more attention than the original did. As I said in the other thread, he'd only really have got abuse had he posted as himself.
jesus dude
i only just got up to get the paper & an irn bru.
then a sausage sandwich
then off to wembley!
hangover :(
oh I've been up for HOURS,
perusing the Guardian over my tea and pain au chocolat. This is called middle age.
oh rachel.
you are a one.
but anyway

OH MY GOD.
THIS IS THE MOST HILARIOUS THING EVER.

My favourite bit
is the syntax error. I <3 mis-placed apostrophes.
i feel like i've been misrepresented
might have to get the lawyers involved
that would be amazing.
let's start a case.
i've made some calls
this jonze person is gonna rue the day he messed with DiS
oui
though he mainly writes for the guide now, since Malik left NME to edit the guide.
Just seeing
'Pigfoot' in print has made my year.
same here
what does that say about my year?
:)
that's great!
...
I just read that thread. You're gonna pay.
If I call Tim Jonze a smug cunt now
does that prove his point? I'm confused.
I don't think I really get the point of the article
What's it trying to prove/inform people about?
I'm not sure that he's proved anything.
That was my feeling
and it wasn't even that entertaining either.
nope
at least he's pleased with himself though.
Damn, we're falling right into his trap here. I'm going to erase this article from my memory, using beer.
Haha
Wow, so he's writing under the guise of a smug, self-satisfied journalist who went online under the guise of a smug, self-satisfied board user.
How postmodern. I bet he's terribly pleased with himself.
the thing is
nobody actually cared. anyone who commented either said 'boring' or 'lol' or just went along with him. i doubt anyone took him for real, and everybody probably thought he was someone else's alter-ego. and 'controversial' threads like that are ten a penny.
but its been twisted by jonze to make it seem more interesting than it actually was. i suppose he is an nme journalist, so its to be expected
Martbowskis a lot better at it
maybe if tarquin had come along and dissed bright eyes or another DiS fave in a more believeable fashion he would have got more reaction.
but genesis? who's gonna believe thats for real?
hurray I now have an extra definition of what post modern means
It means its done by a twunt who is an self referentially a twunt
whoops that should have been up there^ under commandercool
.....when i read pigfoots name i nearly choked on my meusli......and came.....Pigfoot is now a celeb.......whats more he even got selectively quoted, not the full quote.

I think the experiance would have been enhanced by a picture of you
looking wasted like pete doherty.......I wonder if anyone has such a photo?
That should be used as a Cats*3 JAGathon
haha, that's awesome
i like how he tries as hard as he can to try and find a sentence that sounds "outraged". If he'd quoted that whole post it would have been kind of obvious that no one really cared.
The article
is pretty funny. It's just not true. Shame.
I do like
how this whole thing being exposed is getting far more attention than the original did. As I said in the other thread, he'd only really have got abuse had he posted as himself.
Actually
do you reckon he's watching us?
What a great piece of journalism...
Next time he'll try to anger people in a queue by trying to pass before them or something just as great..
Christ that was poor
like a journalistic equivalent to Balls of Steel.
what a weird article!
was he trying to make out that internet forums are all entirely made up of trolls? Pointless, but exciting to see DiSers in print!
