Somebody on here recommended Vanced to me, so now I don’t see ads on YouTube mobile anymore.
“Picking gnat shit out of pepper”. To be overly concerned with minor or inconsequential details.
Along the same lines of what someone else said about things not being serious anymore, I’m tired of every fucking thing being meta, self-referential, or post-modern.
Everything has to be a wink, nod "you don’t really buy this, do you?
Like fuck it was original to break the fourth wall in the 70s or something, critique of grand narratives and all that, but now nothing can be self contained.
Does every show or movie have to have “Wow, so that happened”. Or like the fucking dragons in GOT turning their heads like dogs in a romantic scene. Just infantilizing.
Let things be sad or serious or whatever. The above-it-all, snarky bemused shit is so fucking bourgeois. “Hmm, it doesn’t matter, I’m too smart to care about any of this.”
Fuck off. Some things matter. I rather something be up its own ass and self-serious (which is easily dismissed, ridiculed, etc) than to be overly ironic.
