Grand Jury in Florida Will Examine Death of Trayvon Martin

If we're all going to cower behind some corporate monolith squeaky clean, shiny, apple approved, microsoft compatible, whole-grain, free-range, dust-free digital marketplace where casey fucking casem spoon feeds us our sony-backed volkswagen commercial making alterna ironic hipster mewling whiners in knit wool hats and beards, well then we deserve what we get. wasn't there once some kind of belief that rock-n-roll was about danger and excitement? the corporations are gonna fuck this shit up every time. and in my opinion, a lot of the successful indies have lost touch with the artists who made them who they are. sxsw is part of this whole digestion of the underground. if you think you're into something hip, you're just another smug bastard who's going to swallow this "lifestyle" marketing, hook, line and sinker.
FUCK YOU, YOU ASPIRATIONAL CONSUMERS!!!
