Camera Obscura

Annoying Scottish twee pop band, which is fond of that wall of sound thingy. They have quite a few instruments, but you'd never know, because you can't hear most of them!

The recently released My Maudlin Career, which is probably their best effort to date.

They are continually compared with Belle & Sebastian for some reason, which is weird, because while they both produce pretty twee pop music, you can actually hear the complex instrumenation behind B&S's melodies. Personally, I don't see it.
That kid thinks that Camera Obscura is better than Belle & Sebastian, but he's an idiot.

Observational Racist

One being dubbed a "racist" because they told others of negative personal experiences that support negative stereotypes what they saw or experienced first hand while experiencing a culture or race in person.
The University's "Harmony Club" accused me of being a racist , because I told them about the fact I have been mugged once, been carjacked once, and stabbed twice, and bad experiences seem to happen only when I was in the Slobobian part of town.

I then observed that perhaps there is an inherent problem with Slobobian culture or lifestyle that makes them prone to violence against others, particularly non-Slobobians.

This would make me an Observational Racist, since it was my personal observation of my negative experience that was deemed racist.
