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?

I definitely need to get a job in the 'culture' media
Seems like one of the prerequisites is that you know nothing about anything and you deal exclusively in stale cliches

They managed to get about 5 different "styles" mixed up in one there.
Jd & coke tastes like shite, as Baron said, its all about the Rum! or Bitter

Now we just need rich, idiotic parents to allow us to make this a reality.

Surely the whole logo represents Dale Winton ruining childhood. I dont know what kind of message that puts out.

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
