I was flicking through this and saw an article about the teenager's of today, I quote:
Urbanite Who are they: Street kids, but not as you know them. Forget happy slapping. This is the ghetto regal - imagine mini-entreprenuers who are ridiculously clued up on art, fashion, and, oh yes, music Where you find them: Not at school - they're too ambitious for that. In the day, spot them skiving in their local record shop, looking for rare 1990s tracks to remix. Later it's on to a mates house to hear his latest demo, then on to a dubstep night such as Forward, at London's Platic People, or Fusion in Leed's What they wear: Hoodies from Supreme or Bathing Ape; limited-edition trainers from Nike's recent collaboration with the Japanese brand Visvim What they listen to:Dubstep, a heavier, more meaningful branch of hip-hop, or R&B, if produced by Timbaland Party Poison: JD and Coke, a version of hip-hop's favourite tipple, Courvoisier. Most likely to say "Brap!" to big up a friend or song Heroes: Graffiti artist Banksy; dubstep pioneer Skream. The girls worship MIA.

I was thinking this the other day, how come Chris Morris annihilates anything that he chooses to parody yet somehow they come back even more stupid than the pastiche. This is so Barley it's ridiculous.
That's why I thought Nathan Barley was a bit of a toothless satire. How can you ironically mock a culture which is built upon mindless irony and self-mockery?

Or making childhood, yeah. Cause it's Winton, see. Making childhood right by raping it. And it's like a care bear so it's cool. Maybe if we put Maddy's face on the bear, well controversial
