The Met Gala just screams "Hunger Games" to me. Events like this are what society celebrates when it's past it's prime, bloated and diseased.
I feel like I've heard the name before but this year it seems to be much more prominent.
Yes, it's extraordinarily distasteful.
My distaste for billionaires has gone from "high" to "stratospheric" in the last 5 years or so. Quite incredible really.
Museums and art are important. It’s a big successful fundraiser for art historians, and in that respect I think it’s great. Vibes-wise it’s fucking rancid though. An indulgent, tone deaf celebration of wealth that ultimately benefits a good cause.
We could raise money for art without decadent rich people parties if we just like stopped hoovering up all the money and giving it to rich people.
I mean yeah but Heidi Klum dressing like a statue and scaring other attendees by pretending to be an exhibit is very funny to me
bringing street performance to the otherwise least street event there is
I thought "soandso" was an actual name lmao
Move over Zendaya - there’s a hip, new mononym in town!
Right up there with whatsherface and theuglyone.
i have been trying to decide on my latest stage name (my first garage band was called "Some Band" to give you an idea of what kind of creativity we're working with here) and i've added Soandso and Whatstheirface as a last name to the "oh gods this will make my wife roll her eyes" list so thank you all kindly for your help.
Lame names are the best titles you can give yourself
i was inspired both by E B White and Randy Bachman
Just mispronounce it a bit. It could work

It’s really confusing because it’s actually twins, Soh and Zho, but they never appear together and you never know which one is which. Former twitch streamers, they now perform 10sec long shoegaze/dubstep inspired trick-hop in the secret twin language they invented as children with a smattering of Victorian era slang, and it’s only available on the Glut app. You have no idea what any of this means but have realized this is why your 11yo keeps babbling “trickie burr, trickie burr”.
I really did too
Soan Dso
The problem isn't design, art, wonder and occasional luxury. The problem is wealth distribution.
One good thing about it: None of the Trumps were invited.
It was an entertaining 10 minutes of looking through the outfits, there wasn’t much I liked h this year but fashion is a perfectly valid interest.
NooOoOO fashion is only for shallow dummies that aren't like meeeeeeeee
We should keep idolizing the wealthy. That seems to be working out well.
Filthy rich circle jerk.
They seem to be begging people to watch it. Lol the more advertising there is for a thing, the less I want to do it. I think the begging is so tacky.
I wanted to know who skipped the event after Bezos got involved but I found out it's Zendaya and Lady Gaga and I realized I don't really give a fuck.
Who gives a shit about the Bezos party?
It was really just the corporate gala this year.
That's all it ever has been.
I mean any fashion event you could say that for. I feel like most artists need corporate money to survive.
But we might see bewbs!!!111!!11!
It was interesting looking at the different outfits for five minutes or so, then I got bored.
She's giving vapid
I assume this is something in the news, but I don't even know what the met gala is.
If something happens and you don't notice or care is it really news?
Does the pope shit in the woods?
if the kids in the shallow pool crowded into the deep end, the deep end would be filled with drowned bodies, so let the shallow kids stay in the shallow end out of the deep divers way
Hey, wait, this isn't a shit post
its a bunch of rich people trying to cosplay
Art is for times of peace. We are currently fighting a class war.
The what what
Whos soanso? New fampus?
