Yes, those are they. Thank you. Pretty soon I'll have a definitive idea of what I lost that time around. It's not too bad; I've retrieved a lot of it and, looking at the rest, I'm thinking that half the balance is disposible.

Lauren, I've been meaning to ask you about this. Eden watches a lot of videos by this chick, and I went through a whole series of reactions in the first minute or two of watching it, ranging from "where's this going" to "I remember beings sort of like this" to "bit full of herself, isn't she?" to "this is cool" to "this is a total put-on" to "I wonder what Lauren would make of this". Ultimately I concluded that I wasn't going to come to any decision before I'd need to forbid Eden to ever listen to it again without earphones on. The comments are kind of funny in their own way, but that's the way these things tend to work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK5Z709J2eo&playnext=1&list=PLF87CD60A2017E8FF&index=16 I used to wonder what my kids would come up with that would irritate their fundamentally punk rock parents, assuming (correctly) that they wouldn't find pedestrian pop culture an option. Eden has finally answered that question by becoming obsessed with YouTubers. The content of the stuff she watches ranges from quite good to basically risible (made cool by association), but it drives me around the bend that everything she listens to, reads, watches, and espouses as fact comes through the filter or, or at least carries the imprimatur of, an irritating, insular and self-congratulatory community of ... I dunno, I wanna say wankers. In other words, yeah, punk rock. Except that I don't like it much. (YouTube music in particular is pretty smarmy... these people appear to revere They Might Be Giants in the same way I did the Velvets at their age, and I just don't find that viable. But there's a vast divide between some of the clever songwriter ukulele guys, many of whom at least evince a lot of craft, and some of the crappy GarageBand navel-gazers producing dull, bouncy pop about novelty topics like Pokemon or whatever. And then there are the found-video autotune pastiche artists... some of that stuff is cool, but it gets ruined by shitty attention whores producing endless "cover versions" of it the next day. But I can tell you this: the single most popular song among 12-year-old girls this year is not by Justin Bieber or one of those Hot Topic bands... it is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCXlL2MgIxA&feature=related Seriously, find a 12-year-old girl and say "Well, obviously..." and they will automatically sing this thing to you.) - -Rex ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2010 22:53:52 -0500 (EST) From: Christopher Gross Subject: Re: stream-a-go-go On Wed, 22 Dec 2010, lep wrote: >>> http://gizmodo.com/5561499/we-really-like-the-facebook-like-button-rubber-stamp >> >> This morning I was looking at a hallway sign where students could write >> their wishes for the new year, and upon reading an especially clever wish, I >> was seized by a terrible urge to click "like."

It wasn't *that* clever. I can, however, recall the saddest wish I read. It was repeated in the same handwriting on two or three wish posters: "I wish my boyfriend loved me again."

Thought I'd jump in on this. I've been in music retail for over 30 years and so one would think that my 15 year old daughter would be hip to my assumed awesome taste in music but if it's not "You Tube Sanctioned" she just rolls her eyes at me. She barely watches TV but is glued to you tube constantly and has a very large stable of You tube stars that I am not or am barely aware of. Her and my son (he's 11) can recite and/or sing a whole bunch of stuff off of the youtube at the drop of a hat. It's rather amazing actually. It pretty much answers the question of no matter how hip the parents think they are the kids will figure out how to not only declare them un-hip but they will find something to listen to or watch that will drive the parents crazy. Back to lurking, Jeff (a RH fan since "Fegmania" was the newest LP!)
