I LIKE YOU SO MUCH BETTER WHEN YOU'RE NAKED

HAI INTERNET. ITs me. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you my favorite new blog of the moment. HIPSTER RUNOFF or HRO for cool kids in the know. As HRO says, they are a blog worth blogging about, and that is certainly true. It truly a pioneer of a new frontier in blogging. Post-alt satire. HRO makes fun of "alt bro's and ho's". Which is basically anyone who thinks they are cool by shopping at American Apparel (or Mer Per and my semi alt friend Amanda like to call it) or Urban Outfitters. Or liking a band based on who's blogging about it. He spends mos of the time trying to classify the "alt" as a poser, an entry level alt, or some other classification he pulls from his brain he even makes diagrams like this one.



Not to say that I haven't been guilty of these transgressions from time to time, but sometimes you get the biggest laugh out of laughing at yourself and people you know. My two favorite article so far have been in two very separate arenas. The first has to do with clothing, the second with music. This shows you my versatility. The funny thing about this blog is that you can't quite tell the opinion of the author. Is he really just making fun of "alts" or is he such an "alt himself the only way he can authenticate and legitimize his status is by mocking all the other hipsters.

Here, HRO makes fun of the NME's "coolest USA bands of the moment. As much as I love the NME, I think I take HRO's side on this one. CHECK



And here he ponders what the world would be like if everyone who owned Sambas were required to register for an indoor soccer league. I play indoor soccer. But I don't own Sambas. What does that make me?



Lastly, I would like to introduce you to my favorite song o' da moment, "I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked" by Ida Maria. Its fun. Its chanty. You get to shout "NAKED" when you dance to it. What's not to like? DL HERE (Mixtape Maestro) She looks like a feisty chickadee.
