Back in the late 1990s, internet speeds got fast enough to allow people to share mp3s + videos. Back then every1 had windows computers, and u would just download programs, and these programs would help u to connect + find files from other humans on the Earth. Then bands got all pissed cuz they were like 'they are stealing our mp3s, yall' and they made Napster shut down.

Not sure who uses Limewire, but it was 'shut down' for 'being illegal', but not sure why it is all of a sudden illegal. Seems like it is probs doing the same thing that it did ten years ago.

The company has been forced to immobilise downloading, uploading and searching features, whilst the LimeWire website says the company have been required to "stop distributing and supporting its file-sharing software", adding that "downloading or sharing copyrighted content without authorization is illegal".

Did u even know Limewire was still around?
How do u illegally download albums + leaks?
Torrents? The Pirate Bay? itunes? Amazon MP3? Rapidshare? Mediafire?
What is the best way to download leaked indie albums?
Do u avoid any sort of service that might end up with u in jail / ur parents getting a letter from ur cable provider abt how u broke the rules?

Limewire seems 'kinda bulky'. Miss u Windows era aesthetic. Sorta glad I vibe out on a Mac now and don't run slow ass software that slowly kills my computer.

Wonder who still uses Limewire/Bearshare/KazaA. For some reason I imagine a bunch of people who listen to country music, juggalo horrorcore, and white people who listen to mainstream rap.

Kinda pissed that I just bought the LimewirePro software that was recently mailed 2 me.

H8 it when borderline-illegal services are finally shut down, and then they are like 'We care about music. we're going to rebuild and rebrand, and make a beautiful product that saves/innovates the music industry and finds a way for artists to be compensated for their work.'

In a statement the company said, "During this challenging time, we are excited about the future. The injunction applies only to the LimeWire product. Our company remains open for business. We remain deeply committed to working with the music industry and making the act of loving music more fulfilling for everyone - including artists, songwriters, publishers, labels, and of course music fans.

"Our team of technologists and music enthusiasts is creating a completely new music service that puts you back at the center of your digital music experience."

Jesus. Just help me find all of the music in the world 4 free and make sure that I won't go to jail/get served by a rcrd lbl and then ur service will be pretty chill 2 me.

R u sad that limewire was shut down?
Who even uses limewire / peer2peer file sharing?
Are torrents dangerous / safe?
Do u hate 'the law' for shutting down kewl stuff?
Do yall miss the Napster era?
Was the Napster era overrated?
Did Napster rebrand as a legitimate music subscription service network?
Do u think iTunes should be illegal because artists don't really make any money from it?
Which shitty artists do Middle Americans download from Limewire?

Some alt gets a Bjork Tattoo

Kewl tattie
Looks like some old woman
with brown hair
looking crazy

Guess that means it is Bjork
R u really in2 her or what?
What's ur fave album of hers?
Always thought she was overrated besides that 1 album
but whatever...

To each his own
(unless u wanna get an effing Bjork tattie)
I mean, cmon...
Crazie lady from Iceland
all up on ur leg

I guess that's what happens when u get the tattoo of a buzzband on u
one day they will be irrelevant
and ppl will say 'who is that irrelevant human/buzzband?'
and it will be a challenge to display just how buzzworthy they once were

Sometimes I wonder if when u get a tattoo of the face of a human
if the face stays young forever
or if it naturally ages upon u
growin old, withering away with u

Wanna grow old with a tat
Wanna grow old with u

Who would u get tattooed on ur body?
Does Bjork look hot in this tat, or did the tattoo artist 'eff up'?
Do yall vibe out to Bjork or is she mad weird?
Do u know any1 who has a band / portrait tattoo somewhere on their body?
Should I get Dave Matthews' face tattooed on the head of my penis and make it sing songs 2 me?

Some entry-level artist paints Bill Murray+Wes Anderson mashup art

In the 2000s, the popular mainstream comedian Bill Murray 'rebranded himself' as an actor who starred in indie passion films. He basically 'cashed in' by looking at the camera and looking old + contemplative. Many entrylevelers who were into the Wes Anderson movie franchise were all like "Bill Murray is a genius" even though his vibe was sorta like "passing a kidney stone + being depressed."

Anyways, some artist made a bunch of paintings of Bill Murray playing different characters in Wes Anderson films. Doesn't seem very original/authentic. Just sorta shows that the artist can't 'break free' from the indie film aesthetic, and isn't inspired by anything real. Had 2 sort of go into a dream world.

U like Max Fisher?

U vibe out to Ben Stiller?

Does Bill Murray look like a 'hottie' with a despondent vagina that u need 2 teach a lesson?

Wonder if this woulda made Darjeeleang Unlimited a better movie.

Not sure if I respect this 'art.'
Feel like I'd rather make a viral meme blog about Nicolas Cage's career, and how he is a universal 'leading man' who can do anything he wants.

Is Nicolas Cage a better/more successful actor than Bill Murray?
Do yall h8 Wes Anderson inspired art?
Is this 'art' real 'art', or just paintings that are geared towards becoming internet memes?
Was Bill Murray's indie film phase 'overrated' or 'underrated'?
Do u ever look in the mirror and pretend u r a character in a Wes Anderson film?
Does this art mean that the entire spectrum of humanity is embodied in Wes Anderson films?
Do u ever have sex with ur partner and see Bill Murray's face?
