Harvey Danger - “Sad Sweetheart of the Rodeo”
That Sean’s got some pipes on him.
The Marlboro Man died of cancer—
and he wasn’t a rocket scientist when he was healthy.
(“Ha ha ha.”)
She took one last gulp of his soft city condescension,
and blasted off from his little launch pad to parts West.Cameo by (Harvey Danger’s then-keyboard-sideman) John Roderick, getting hogtied by the pretty Diane Court lady. Lucky bastard.
Finally, someone likes the obscure Harvey Danger stuff like me.
As someone who develops algorithms on a regular basis in my daily work, I have to admit that the algorithm that determines “tumblarity” has to have some flaws in it. I hadn’t posted a single thing to this “blog” in a least a few months, but my “tumblarity” went from zero to 3 (is that good?).
Also, why does everything need to turn into a competition? I kind of liked the fact that I could just never post here and just consume the content of other people who produced it. Now everytime I go to my dashboard to consume that content, I have to look at an actual statistic telling me what a non-contributing waste of space I am.
Hey Tumblr, thanks for creating a feature for only people who are self involved and require justification of their internet existence. I get the impression that that feature will only drive people to produce massive amounts of content just in hopes of increasing their “tumblarity”. I have already seen this amongst some people who intermitently produced really good content, but now just dump bucketloads of webxcrement through their T1’s. Now I have to unfollow them. It’s me, not you. Sorry.
