Liz Phair Still Pissed Off About That Interview "A reporter recently asked Liz Phair what it was like to be hated by everyone. 'He said it just like that, totally matter of-fact,' says Phair, still in disbelief." Ha. More with Liz at Newsweek.

And stereogum readers are mildly annoyed that we're still talking about this--kind of like the Josh Homme nonsense.

I'm with anon. Not only does she keep coming up but it's the same damn Liz Thing referenced over and over. After the next one I'll move from mildly to slightly irritatingly.

It's a chore to listen to elitist music snobs constantly bash other people's tastes in music or someone's creative expression or return to creative expression. Have an opinion, but stop being a dick.

I don't understand what these little "stub" posts are all about, since they go nowhere, but I'm in agreement with those above. Especially if it's about Liz Phair, at least post a photo or four.

The Shorty posts are for links that are interesting but don't deserve 200 word posts.

e.g.,

I'm sorry this post not interesting enough for some of you. I thought it was funny. I will blog harder in the future!

How is something like vinyl that was made out of chocolate (that's a whole different post) not worth 200 words?

Yes, give us content, not stubs. Might I suggest a recap post at the end of the day, to catch all the smaller stories you might've missed?
