I'm really weirded out

[lapsedmodernist]

So I'm fucking around on the computer and watching CNN headline news. As they are signing off at the half-hour, they do so to the sounds of Love Song by The Cure. You know, time-waster credits footage with the anchors talking to each other in a long shot, and uh, there's the instrumental version of the song to slit your wrists by. However far away, I will always love you, however long I stay I will always love you, whatever words I say I will always love you...I am scared. Dear CNN, please don't love me. I feel as good about your declarations of love as I do about Big Brother's loving concern.

Have you heard the cover of Lovesong by 311? It is fantastic.





...and by "fantastic", I mean an unholy travesty of awful.

Anderson Cooper does that on his show 360. He's young and apprantly hip to what "the kids are into".

true

i hate how they use the "hip" rock music for anderson cooper. it just kind of jazzes up the news in a way that is scary.

that's creepy.

they're probably banking on most people not filling in the words.
