PBR is for fucking pussys, plain and simple.

If your going to drink shitty American beer and get loose (I dont know how kids do this on the pittance % of PBR) at least have some balls and hit one or all of the following:
1. Steel Reserve
2. Colt 45
3. Cammo
4. OE 800
5. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

haha the adbusters article touched a few nerves... good. every day it seems someone around here has just read the worst article they've ever read!

the comparisons to the 'authenticity' of the punk movement did make me wonder if the piece was a thinly-disguised polemic from an aging, jaded ex-punk out to relive his glory days.

it was pretty fucking funny, though.

I disagree. I think we put people into categories throughout our lives.

And you'd fucking love it.

That is some crazy-assed fuckin' eye wear, I used to wear something similar in the mid-80s... Martin Rev homage in my case, tho' Mr Rev was probably referencing Miles... Miles was a hep cat, tho' I find most of his compositions insipid...

Messrs Rev (left) and Vega in their 70s heyday, collectively known as Suicide... Dontcha know... Now that's some proper hipster shit...

Insipid? Not a word I'd use to describe M. Davis or his music.

Try 'On The Corner' or the live electric seventies albums, anything after his retirement was a bit crap.

bah whatever, i dont know whats worse, fashion following sheep, or people that moan about them. everyone hates chavs and chavs hate everyone else.

if you wear skinny jeans your a twat, if you wear lycra your a twat, if you have gears your a twat, if you have a brake your a twat, if you dont have brakes your a twat. who really gives a shit, let people do what they want and get on with your own life and carve your own existance.
