Bitchin Images

[linebaugh]

this is a little @mvuent core I think

I slept on it and I feel like I'm starting to get what you're after, which is like, "8th grader white kid from Bakersfield who thinks he's hot shit"

not exactly what you’re looking for but always liked David LaChappelle’s shot of Paris Hilton from 2000.

hsppy holidays, boys.

 

[sufi]

so what, "bitchin" just means misogynisic, or you misspelt bitcoin?

 

[Leo]

i was thinking of the Dead Milkmen song “Bitchin Camaro”, cartoonish OTT macho posturing. The LaChappelle shot flips the script, where the most pampered and spoiled rich kid wannabe celebrity (at the time) goes all tough-chick and gives her detractors and the world a glorious FU.

I did my best but this thread was DOA. That's "Dead On Arrival." Not very good for a thread if you catch my drift.

I think we can define 'bitchin' as the exact opposite of craner aesthetics

You know how often you have that thing where the spectrum is actually all curved and one end somehow ends up being weirdly like the other end? This is emphatically not one of those times.

your generation is only allowed to consume these images ironically because you will be scolded by people like sufi. in my day we were allowed to watch it on tv in shows such as the dukes of hazard

 

[WashYourHands]

TANKARD?

TANKARD?

The logical conclusion:

ironically is equally unacceptable, maybe you could try anthropological lens?
