Had to think of something fast because Cobbler's online.
Booooooooooo.
Stop referencing him in the random thread titles. Shit is lame. He feeds off this shit. He probably jerks off to these thread titles. Are we really trying to make cobbler's life happier?

I didn't pay attention to all of last thread, but I did a quick search of it and nothing came up, so.....
Pazz and Jop 2012 is out.
I'm glad "Climax" got recognition at #3.
I was going to go with "This thread is too fucking," but I wasn't sure the mods would appreciate that as a thread title.

The last meta-analysis we do is a similarity matrix. This process identifies similar albums and similar songs by voter overlap, and similar ballots and voters by album/song/artist overlap. In some ways, this is actually the most interesting view of the poll's data, as it identifies voting patterns that are not otherwise readily apparent. It reveals, for example, that the voters for Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar, Fiona Apple, Japandroids, and Miguel overlap substantially in all directions (more than usual for a top five), but Tame Impala at #6 has a different faction (who also like War on Drugs, Cut Copy, Cloud Nothings, and Beach House), as do Swans at #7 (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, El-P, Baroness, and Spiritualized) and Grimes at #9 (Beach House, Andy Stott, Laurel Halo, Julia Holter, and Scott Walker). This analysis includes all data from 2008 to 2012, so we see, among other things, that the most similar album to Taylor Swift's Red is her own 2010 album, Speak Now, but that there are actually 11 other albums more similar to Red, by voter overlap, than Swift's Fearless.

Was that the word the mods freaked out over? I thought it was fuck, but i'm remembering it being that situation now.
The mods (perhaps begrudgingly) didn't object to the Fucking, Austria Superthread a few years ago, so I think it would've been fine. The only times I can recall severe mod disapproval for thread titles have been those featuring "cunt". So Cobbler can't ever make Cobbler's Thread for Mad Shit Cunts.
Please nobody explain the name of the thread. There's no way it can live up to whatever I imagine it to mean

edit- so I second-guessed myself a bit remembering there was a 2012 Best Albums thread, but it turns out you nerds were running a contest

I'm glad "Climax" got recognition at #3it was #3 on P4K's list as well so I guess it was the safe third place vote
This might be missed in a casual scan of the list:
I want to look more into this, but it doesn't look like it's part of the main stats page
Shouter saw the Mad Sick Cunts open for Sex Church in an abandoned Burger King in Palo Alto back in '89.
And, also agreed with Laz re: "Fuck the Strokes". Ugh.
All, I had a fantastic steak tonight at dinner with a few friends. You needed to know.
C Side was my favorite by leaps and bounds
I love having almost their entire discography on vinyl for some reason (not liking it for some reason, I mean, I'm still not sure how I ended up with so many of their records)
