pitchforks and hammer handles

That's what we would say during a downpour.
It's raining "pitchforks and hammer handles". Maybe that was just a local Pennsylvania Dutch area thing.

Bitchfork

1) (noun) A sad existence. A leech with no musical taste that listens to every thing that the wannbe-hipster hotspot, pitchfork.com, gives an 8.3 or higher.

2) (verb; to bitchfork) To flame people for their musical taste, if the respective artist was not given an 8.3 or higher on pitchfork.
1) Bitchfork: OMG have you heard the new Sunset Rubdown album, it's absolutely brilliant. 8.3 / 10!!! The greek allusions are so down to earth and not pretentious. Oh, did i forget to mention i love Animal Collective.
Normal Person: What a bitchfork.

2) Douche: Omg, i don't think that there are enough Greek allusions in the new Peter, Bjorn & John album. It's so mainstream indie, and behind the times. Animal Collective ,however, rules!
Person 1: What is going on
Person 2: Leave him alone, he's just bitchforking.

Pitchforkcore

Music (especially indie music) or bands that were popularized by the music website Pitchfork. Often used derisively.
At this point I think we can assume that any band with "Beach" in its name is Pitchforkcore.

White kids who don't listen to rap will listen to Odd Future because it's Pitchforkcore.
