Fuckin' Ke$ha again. and also Hipsters.

So it seems like Ke$ha pretty much dominates my life.. I've been thinking about this in the car on my way home when the music on the radio had a pretty consistent string of great songs on.. Being a hipster is so not fun. My IPOD PHONE has stuff on it like  the big ones : The freaking Arcade Fire and freaking Death Cab For Cutie, Florence and the Machine and, the medium ones : Interpol and Jens Lekman and Sigur Ros, The Shins,  and, the smaller ones : Mew, The Most Serene Republic, Tokyo Police Club... but like, when I want to listen to music, for real, you know what I want to listen to? This list of songs I listened to in the car today. In order:
  • Stereo Hearts - Gym Class Heroes ft. Adam Levine
  • I Wanna Go - Britney Spears
  • Take It Off - Ke$ha (her again)
Then I turned fucking Adele off on the radio, because I didn't feel like listening to Rolling in the Fucking Deep for the zillionth time, and put on Spotify. The rest is of my own volition now.
  • Like A G6 - Far East Movement
  • Whatcha Say - Jason Derulo
  • Double Vision - 3OH!3
  • Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5
  • Daylight - Matt & Kim (maybe a little hipsterish, but once it's been used in a Bacardi commercial it's fair game)
If I felt some need to maintain some kind of insane hipsterness, even alone in the car, the vast majority of those songs would be OUT. SO OUT. but they're freaking FUN SONGS. like, I wanna get into a skimpy skirt and rub asses with some random chicks in da club when I listen to those songs. Hipsters only rub asses in an ironic way, which is lame and insincere. Hipsters are either lying to themselves, or they actually have no souls. Either way, I hate them. Now, obviously I listen to my fair share of hipstery music, but I'm not going to be all devout about it. HAVE YOU HEARD THAT BRITNEY SONG?! it's AWESOME. She's kickin' ass with that song. and hipsters, you lose out on that. your lives are, in a word, incomplete. in another two words - a lie.  I had an awesome silent disco in my car, wiggling around and singing with my headphones in. It was awesome. I can guarantee you it would not have been as fun if I were listening to goddamn crazy-ass Sigur Ros. GUARANTEE IT.
Where does Ke$ha come in? she's like the anti-hipster. She's so fucked up, she doesn't even know what the hell she's doing. but she's probably having a hella good time. is she probably going to die some pre-mature/tragic death because of all her shit? yes, probably. But I bet she has a lot more genuine fun than some buttoned up hipster whose wild nights include like, Mad Men orgies or something. I don't fucking know. This is the moment when I'm glad I go to a college for people who have no fucking clue what they're doing with their lives. and wear sweatpants all the time.
