Post Modern Rock

A genre of music, really a supergenre, encompassing many other genres including indie rock, indiepop, twee, britpop, shoegazer, electronic, electro, glitchpop, some singer/songwriter, lo-fi, and older genres including punk, new wave and Madchester. Former terms were "Modern Rock" or "Alternative," but these became obsolete when their meaning was corroded circa 1992. They then became used to describe corporate nu-rock.

Record store clerk 1: "So, I listen to a lot of bands. Like, Flaming Lips, Death Cab for Cutie, Ballboy, Doves, My Bloody Valentine, Royksopp, Adult., Lali Puna, Denison Witmer, Daniel Johnston, The Ramones, The Clash, Talking Heads, New Order and Primal Scream, just to name a few. I feel like it's all one supergenre, but I don't know what you call it."

Record store clerk 2: "You'd call that Post Modern Rock."

Poster Nut Bag

Jimmy's Cat from Phish's song "Harpua"
who's been hit by a comet, sucked into the depths of Hell by the vibration of death, killed by Harpua the most evil & ugly dog in the universe, and... Oh look, the storm's gone!

If I ever have a cat I'd like to name him Poster Nut Bag as a tribute to Phish

portvangelist

Someone who is an evangelist for the Portland Oregon lifestyle. A person who shows out of towners or new arrivals the local spots that make Portland the amazing wonderful place to live that it is.

The way Kveton described the Sellwood neighborhood told me he was a total Portvangelist.

post modern

a term used most often in academia to describe an event, work of literature, style of art, or particular way of thinking in an extremely vague manner referring to a virtually unidentifiable era or quality that existed at some point after the "modern" period ended.

i wrote a paper called "Post Modern Perspecives on Female Genital Mutilation" so full of academic gobbely-gook that I believe I got an A just because neither myself nor the professor clearly understood what it was about.
