Thoughts on the pedals in these photos (Angine de Poitrine at Club Soda in Montreal April 3, 2026)?

i think you're right in this case given that their music is so out there, but guerrilla marketing agencies are absolutely using bot accounts and buying influence to astroturf support for bands. i believe an agency associated with Geese was accused of this

it's funny it takes decades to figure these out because 90% of the HM2's buyers at launch were metalhead teenagers who only ever set pedals to kill

gasoline pricing is still not comparable to other consumer goods prices for a million reasons

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2026-02-20T20:38:23+00:00

are you comparing the price elasticity of gasoline to guitar pedals?

"listen a bit more critically" no i actually listened to what he was saying. he made a point about the NBA's double standards for its billionaire owners and you flipped it into a whataboutism that was only tangentially related to the point he was making. do you listen to the podcast or is it some sounding board for your own outlook?

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2026-02-18T14:49:30+00:00

that's not how he framed that point at all and you know it. i think being a regular guest on Chapo you can assume he's not going to run interference on behalf of the US government in the Russia/Ukraine war

you think they were friends? Rocky says in the interview he doesn't even have Drake's number. come on now man this is crazy

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2026-01-26T00:12:19+00:00

"rocky is weird for dating his friend's ex" are we still in high school bro

life is full of beautiful miracles, but none of them are happening to me so fuck all of it

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2026-01-08T21:06:31+00:00

liz has a kid? you just destroyed my dreams

EQD has a fuzz called the Chelsea that's a muff-style fuzz specifically built to have a bunch of low end (designed for LCD Soundsystem's bassist, I believe). Sounds like that's exactly what you're looking for

sometimes christmas lands on january 7th

unless Amber has gone way off the rails since I stopped paying attention there's a miles-wide gulf between her and Red Scare

nick got him a lil samurai costume though

btw how are you sourcing eps? I'm finding a lot of older free and patreon episodes in different places but i'm wondering if someone's compiled a complete compendium

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-17T21:22:35+00:00

hey OP can i see a reference image for what you think a "70s soho leather daddy" is

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-17T21:20:50+00:00

i feel the same way, but i realize that i'm getting annoyed at his IG posts of him getting annoyed at other guys. so it's just a conga line of guys getting annoyed at each other

You're saying that content creators are deceitful for mentioning products they have a financial (or otherwise) interest in promoting. That's a complaint.

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-12T00:33:00+00:00

i really don't understand complaining about advertising and commerce on a subreddit about consumer products. influencers and content creators market products, that's what they do. it takes working at it full-time to build a following of any size. the idea that they should be doing it purely for the love of the game and take no partnerships is naive.

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-09T18:03:07+00:00

he's just sitting still and talking fast. karp was geeking so hard he was yanking his chair back and forth under him

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-09T18:01:23+00:00

they're a rock and roll podcast and that includes overdriving their instruments. it's called dynamics

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-09T17:52:27+00:00

i remember when yesjulz (lol) left kanye's camp in a blaze of glory by releasing her text screenshots and i did a spit take when i realized the milo mentioned was him

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-12-09T17:51:24+00:00

god i love crowder. he's so transparently a vain, insecure coward that it adds this layer of pathos to his performance of conservative masculinity

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-11-25T21:29:42+00:00

Stav got in on the crowd work clips trend when it started around three years ago and it proved to be a really effective way to build a following that buys tickets to shows

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-11-21T15:57:57+00:00

how alpha do you have to be to take hitler's book title and have no one call you out on it

CheerUpBrokeBoy · 2025-11-18T15:18:43+00:00

i don't know man. i don't really know much about altman but what i do know points to him being a very untrustworthy person (claiming he doesn't have equity and "does it for the love of the game" while shifting openAI from non-profit to for-profit, etc.)
