The sweater in that pic is $286... and it has swans on it, for extra Sufjanness.

Did I miss something? When did Cosby sweaters become a thing people actually wear instead of just a reference?

It seems like I'm making a joke, but last year, if there had been a square for "Drive Like Jehu Yank Crime sweatshirt," I actually could have checked it off.

And good luck filling in that "Brooklynvegan Sighting" square-- the dude is like the Loch Ness Monster, no photographic evidence exists.

We were planning on bringing something similar to the NKOTB concert tonight. Heavier on the pegged jeans and mall bangs kind of things than the Black Kids shirts things.

Probably won’t be seeing a lot of Black Kids t-shirts. Do you think if they played one of the small clubs this year it would be as full as last year?
