The fact that you are here on this shitbag site spewing the
filth from uour mouth along with everyone else merely
confirms the question posed by the topic.

you are one weak & spiteful git.
Most of society is mindless as most watch tv according to
you.
Btw you might learn a thing or three from watching a little
tv.

Furthermore, open your mind up a bit... And twist your
views to a more positive note, you might be surprised how
much further you might get in life. I haven't seen 1
positive post of yours yet.
Perhaps you're just trying to attract attention. You hit
puberty yet?

Here's one i posted earlier:

"The original hipster wore Italian suits, listened to
Charlie
Parker's brand of "cool" jazz, shot up heroin and doubled as

what Norman Mailer, in a famous essay of 1957, christened
"The White Negro". Mass-marketed, he was the idealised stud

of Hugh Hefner's "Playboy philosophy", at his incomparable
best the taboo-shattering stand-up Lenny Bruce. Something
cooler and blacker than the beatnik, he was a cut above the

hippie, which, pre-bells and beads, signified a failed or at

best wannabe hipster. He vanished around 1960. Now he's back

(and she too) and the Urban Dictionary describes "a
subculture of men and women typically in their 20s and 30s
that value independent thinking, counter-culture,
progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock,

creativity, intelligence, and witty banter".

You decide.

Yes intelligence does not exist anymore, because all people
do these days is look shit up and regurgitate it like you
just did, without actually having to think. That's why your
generation gets shit on so much. You seem like you were all
raised on recycled waste-water and spoonfed politics.

If you or ampi max could actually think for yourselves, you
would have realized 4 years ago that the third generation of
hipsters are upon us, but then again, you are part of them,
so maybe this stupidity you both exhibit, is more the result
of a subconscious acknowledgement and subsequent although
frail attempt at avoiding it.

OK i give up with you. You're a typical internet twat. I'd
love to have a chat with you face to face. You keep trying
to work me out but you haven't. You just attack, which is
typical of internet twats.

I give up with you. I thought it was just some fun
exchanges but you really aren't any fun at all. I don't
think for myself because i posted a recent definition of the
word "hipster"? The term is thrown around so much here, with
disdain, i wanted to clarify it's meaning. If looking up for
a definition is not thinking for one's self then you really
are either a fool or just like to quibble.

Or do you do this to feel important? Because you seem to
think the internet is so important to me and that i must
therefore spend my days behind a pseudo trying to be either
clever or a dick. This is the only forum/mb i visit, out of
habit. I met some genuinely excellent people here.
Otherwise, believe it or not, i spend my days outside, i
have a family, a dog and a life. Just because you don't
agree with me or feel offended because i'm showing what a
dick you are, doesn't mean i'm the internet cliché you want
to portray me as.

I love it when people say stuff like "intelligence doesn't
exist". You certainly seem to be proof, if it's the case. I
reckon before arguing one should be at ease with the
definition. At least all agree as to what intelligence is
perceived to be. Oh wait, mustn't look up definitions, it
might mean a lack of....intelligence!

It's a positive trait for someone to possess. To be curious
and to doubt. But next time you go all deep on us again, at
least type it right! ; )

So what is perceived?

I heard qrter and a few others talked with Phobiazero the
other day. Things look good for you. Keep the phace!

Yeah it's nice to put people in neat little boxes isn't?
With a nice tag on it that explains everything. Fuck hippies
and baby boomers.

All sorts of people like aphex' music. All shapes, ages,
from the stupids to the whatever clevers. It's like in the
Ecclesiastes, why is it the stupid die the same as the wise?
Why do Aphex fans hate him becoming liked by the (m)asses?
It's just pride.

Apparently Aphex Twin himself hates becoming liked by the
masses; why do you think he hasnt given you a new album for
so long. It's probably because he feels that (and rightly
so) people like you dont deserve it. He looks at kids these
days and sees them worhsiping Kanye West and Kim Kardashian,
listening to Die Antwoord and think it's the coolest shit
ever, forums like WATMM and XLT, and he just says... fuck
this

"people like you"

Who the fuck are you? Honestly.

I don't think he minds kids liking his music. It's dickheads
like you i wouldn't want as a fan. The way you seem to
position yourself above everyone and yet back it up with
absolutely fuck all is baffling. You are projecting the
image of exactly the thing you point a finger at. For me
you're a very average, no, below average internet wanker.
You are extremely ordinary and have little guts. I've heard
ten year olds hold the same views as you and wavephalus
etc..

If you guys just want be insulting you need to learn because
on this forum there are masters at it, and they shit on you
from very funny and high place.

masses?

Aphex Twin is "unfortunately" for him, not liked by the
"masses".
Mention the name to the masses, and practically none will
know the name. But anyway... He obviously releases his music
on a record label so that he would be liked. This way he can
learn a living.

1 + 1 = 2. He probably hasn't released anything under
"Aphex Twin" because he is financially well off. Who knows.

I assumed the real reason he hasn't released under aphex
twin is because warp holds the rights to that name and he
just got away with pouring out the couple analords on
rephlex.

He's completely right, you're a dipshit and you've proven it
by replying so emotionally I almost feel bad for you, very
embarrassing. Other than crying about how you're so hurt, do
you have anything relevant to add (you know, about aphex
twin and why he hasn't released an album since half wits
like yourself came out of the woodwork and invaded the
internet), didn't think so.

Stick to your pathetic attempts at being accepted on
internet forums.

It's all schoolyard bollocks but fun:

I'm "emotional", which for him implies i'm a "dipshit".
Super stuff.

Aww, I like the bit that I "cried because i was hurt". Get
over yourself, wp! I wasn't hurt and save my crying for
stuff that's worth it. And what's wrong with crying? Not
hardcode enough? Does it mean i have a small phallus?

I like crying and i probably once cried watching the Big
Bang Theory. I hope that idea alone makes wavephallus and
Co's heads explode. Scanners style.
Oh fuck i mentioned a film that is probably liked by
hipsters.

Oh as for the really relevant bit about me being "a halfwit
that came out of the woodwork and invaded the internet". OK
but:

The odd thing is that was this person to talk to me like
this in some pub or the street, he would seem an absolute
wanker. It's typical internet behaviour. I love how internet
scum hate themselves so much and will use any excuse to be
insulting and generally ignorant and dumb, making massive
generalisations and being inept at having a proper
conversation. This sort of person is the exact trash he
implies he hates. I really think wavephallus and hardcode
should get a career in fortune telling as they're great at
telling people who they are by knowing absolutely fuck all
about them. At least fortune tellers don't just vent and
project their angsty little anger though, and they get paid.
They might even actually have something nice to say (a lie,
of course).

I should quit replying sometimes. I'm just fuelling more
insulting responses because i appear to care. I tried. Also
i hate reading blocks of texts on here and lately i'm the
main culprit. I enjoy interaction but some people aren't
here to use it in a nice fashion. Yet i love ddrummondd and
many of the wonderful and spiteful people we've had over the
years.
These new watmm and other forum rejects are boring though
and seem to project the hatred they have for the place that
rejected them. I'm the watmm hipster fag . The conventional
love hungry idiot that did

Thanks, and you're right. I need to learn not to let wankers
wind me up. They often always get the last laugh (online
that is) because if they sense someone is playing along and
taking things seriously, they start thinking they smell
distress or hurt and they love it. They don't want a real
exchange.

is Aphex Twin mainsteam hipster garbage now?

always has been. the whole concept of aphex is the
definition of it. YOU listen to him don't ya?

2ndly.), your question is an oxymoron that creates a kinda
recursive paradox that fuckin cancels itself out like a
double negative and then implodes.
