It's my homepage, but I sure don't love it.

It's a great source for finding new music, though

Pitchfork is the online equivalent of the backbiting, little snotty nosed kid on the bus who pokes fun at everyone to get attention, even if it's negative.  Think Bart Simpson, only not nearly as smart.

Glad to see someone else is not impressed with their writers...my God, the writing there is TERRIBLE.

Runnin' from somethin' that isn't there

The links on that article are so hilarious!

RichDorkMedia.Com did the best parody of a Radiohead review.  Genius.

Let me moidfy (clarify? verify?) my statement
i love pitchfork because it introudces me to new music and, in all honesty, i mostly agree with all teh opinions of hte writers.

however i do know that they're pretentious dickweeds and i do see how terrible most their articles are.
but
im' not looking at it from a critical standpoint.
i like it 'cos i (for the most part) agree with it and i like waht they offer me with...their mp3's and their videos and they're opinions... and i like the layout. the blue is fantastic!

hmm.
