Why I Don't Heart Perez

for new years, i was going to give up Perez. 1) because for some reason, his comments and quips really annoy me, 2) because ever since i saw him on television, i cannot get that nasal annoying voice of my head, and 3) because i'd found someone new who was funnier.

well, i haven't actually been able to let go of Perez. i check in a couple times of week still--mainly on lunch breaks. i read my other guy (A Socialite's Life) regularly though.

i have decided just now that i really am done with Perez. for all the reasons i listed above, but now, especially because i am SO FUCKING ANNOYED with his music blurbs. i sometimes feel like he has flipped open an issue of Blender or Spin or something and just like, recycles what he reads.

what did it for me this time: his summation of Chromeo. because like, they are a brand new act that no one's ever heard before. don't get me wrong, i love Chromeo and i am constantly guilty of being late to the party (musically, cinematically, fashion-aly, etc.), but i don't have a website that a bazillion people read. ugh. you know, i realize that makes no sense. whatever. for some reason i am beyond annoyed about this Chromeo post.

i mean, seriously...how can i be expected to take a person seriously when they write about the Jonas Brothers (who the eff are they, anways?!!!), Paula Abdul, and Chromeo all in the same post?

and FYI, Perez, liking Daft Punk and Justice isn't neccessarily a good litmus for Chromeo fans.

and yes, i am raging music snob.
