This is why decentralized, non-corporate social media is so important.

I agree with the point but it is kind of funny to see the oatmeal, the nickelback of comics, complaining about it

What's the deal with both the oatmeal and nickelback?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I semi remember an interview with the guy from nickelback who said (obviously paraphrasing) that he studied the songs that reached number one in the rock chart, and noted that, ok they have this tempo, they have a key change here, etc etc, and set out to make a song that had those qualities. very successfully as it turned out.

there's the same sort of essential cynicism (and subsequent success) with the oatmeal

What are you talking about? The Oatmeal is bad ass! Probably one of the best things on the internet.
