He's amusing, like a caged idiot, but I'd still like to see him banned for being such an ignorant fuckwit.

It's hilarious that along with all his obscure pretentions and pseudo-military bullshit, he's also into Eames furniture - the most obvious and benign marker of the modern hipster sheep (nice though it is).

but that's it, you're weak and NEED a girlfriend to live. I'm resilienter and more stronger than you will ever be, sure I've never had a real girlfriend, but its made me strong so I'm self reliant and it's fucking sad when so many people are just with people so they don't off themselves and not actually because they want to be with that person. You probably dont even like your girlfriend but you probably stay with her just so you can have someone, thats lying to someone and is cruel.

Stop being such a fucking mong. Only using websites that were around before 2001 isn't going to make you any cooler or improve your life,
Yes it is, I already said how, by making my life more real than yours and making it simpler.

considering you practically only exist on the Internet. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. The Internet gave you the only shred of acceptance you've ever had, don't try and pretend that you're better than it now.

Thats probably true but I don't care, I like being a reject, I like being weird, coz its me, and I like me, I think I'm righteous and call bullshit for what it is.. I don't want to be anyone else. Ubercool

Thanks for replying man Cool

I love hearing this shit, i hope you never get banned.

you see that's the difference between me and most people, I like shit because I like it, not because of what other people like. Sure I like w)taps but I also like Mc Donald's, because I think they're both good, I don't shun McDonald's because it's not obscure like a true hipster.

I've liked Eames ever since I saw it in Nip magazines in pics of the urahara set's apartments in the '90s. Then I researched it and found out the Eames designed military shit for Worl War 2, World War 2 was cool and I like the furniture stand alone because it's classically American like workwear or jeans, it's utilitarian and tough but also looks good without being fancy and gay like European shit. It could only come from an American perspective and America and it's perspective is something I've liked since I lived there for 3 years as a kid and it's probably something you couldn't understand. America basically saved Australia and England in WW2 and got nothing in return, I'll always love America and American things.

Sure the mainstream recently discovered it but I've had my eye on the Herman Miller stuff for many many years and it's recent popularity isn't going to change my tastes like it might change yours (because you're weak)

So from your avatar I assume you also like Eames designs even though they're "obvious" and "benign"? What's your justification for liking it?

I respect all religious people, I like religion and religious people, overall I think they make the world better. unfortunately I can't personally believe in a god and if I went to a religious meeting I would be lying to myself.

So from your avatar I assume you also like Eames designs even though they're "obvious" and "benign"? What's your justification for liking it?

I'm not weak (you cunt), I also like Eames design because of where it came from and how it uses materials. The aesthetics are pure but there is also a retro sci-fi element that appeals. Their work, as well as that of a few architects that spring to mind (the Case Study housing programme is a good starting point), has popular appeal as well as a deep design philosophy. Yeah it's come into fashion in the last ten years but that's not just because people are weak, it has to do with ideas and attitudes coming full circle, with objects acquiring a vintage (I'm not talking about vintage in the sense of the ironic hipster vintage fad). It is obvious and benign in the sense that it's commonplace amongst people with only a smidgen of aesthetic literacy, who just love Eames furniture but know nothing of its origins beyond what they're told in the Vitra catalogue (Herman Miller don;t make the best versions either BTW).

I would say however that they (Ray and Charles) never quite achieved what they set out to as their mass-producible furniture was never that viable economically. The British designer Robin Day kind of completed that ambition on their behalf, though his design is only just getting the recognition it deserves because fruitcakes like you have held the Eames myth up as something rarified. Virtually every school in the UK has hundreds of plastic Robin Day chairs. As for the war, the connection you make seems a bit trite as they were pacifists and had utopian, almost communist ideals. The plywood Navy contracts were a starting point, yes, but they didn't design "military shit", they designed splints and stretchers.
