Fuckin' Facebook people. Why is this getting upvoted. "Juggalos but black"? WTF? You realize Juggalos are the FANS of ICP, not the members. All fans of OF are not black. Also, "if someone you loved got hurt by this guys actions then you would be singing a different tune." Also completely pointless, that would just make someone bias in the other direction.
TtC is a stupid, immature, moron but lets not praise other stupid, immature, morons just because they happen to also not like his actions at SXSW.
What kind of dumbass entertainer tries to get people in the back of a venue to push their way up front? Guy is known for immature antics but does he want his own fans crushed? Rookie play by TtC.
One of the many things keeping Walking Dead form being a great show: "Hey the girl who plays Beth can sing pretty good, lets have her sing a song every other episode!"
We get it.
The price of living in a small world is all of the psychotic losers are a lot closer to you.
I use the word "psychotic" loosely there, obviously, but the fact of the matter is there is no reasoning with a lot of the people who say hateful, ignorant things on the internet. They aren't there to learn, they're there to vent and try to feel big by tearing someone else down. There is the occasional ill-advised post by someone trying to be funny or who is misinformed that would be willing to appreciate their mistake. But the internet is such an unforgiving place that when someone does misstep like that, instead of trying to intelligently explain it to them, everyone jumps at the chance to feel self righteous and spews at some hateful ignorant put down in response.
I can think of countless examples from Stereogum alone.
Like that big computer said to Dr. Falken, the only way to win is not to play. Like any would-be bully, don't engage them and they're powerless. Unfortunately, that tactic won't always work for someone of Sky's stature, so I get the frustration. But, ultimately, this is a part of the world we live in now. The internet gives everyone a loud speaker, even to those no one wants to hear.
In theory this could help the flow of foot traffic if it only makes the shrill beeping sound if you need to swipe again. Of course, idiots still wouldn't notice.
Well, he'll also have to maintain that her story is false, of course. But he doesn't have to prove it, because it would be impossible to. How does someone prove that they've never met someone? It would be on her to provide evidence that the rape occurred.
Not that it matter too much, this is going to soon be settled or dropped.
The dangers of posting uncorroborated stories you find on the interwebs all willy nilly on your own site.
It's easy to say he should ignore it up until sites like Stereogum start running pieces saying "Did Conor Oberst rape a girl?" and "True or not, this will haunt his career forever."
Suddenly its not just some girl on her Tumblr, but a big, well known music website owned by an even bigger more well known parent group.
It doesn't take much for things to get out of hand with the internet these days.
General rule of thumb, no matter how right or measured you think your criticism is, just avoid posting on things about bands or music you don't like. You will get downvoted mercilessly.
Unless its about Imagine Dragons. Don't nobody like that shit.
"I think soccer players used to do this, like Pele." Love that line.
Rainbows are more of just a showy dribbling move like bouncing the ball on your head, they're not really practical in a game. She seems to have some talent with the ball, surprised she wouldn't know that.
The article you are referring to did suffer from a good deal of ignorance in the way in handled the transgendered aspect of the story, but it was neither malicious nor incorrect in its facts. The subject of that article was a deeply disturbed individual that took their own life several months before the article about her was even published. To say they "killed a trans woman" is disgustingly inaccurate and outrageous.
