Burning I AM CARLES

[Guitariofreak1994]

Hipster Runoff, my god that site gave me aids.

[evange03]

Damn you are retarded! You are the worst kind of hipster douche, unless this is a joke in which case well done sir.

[NeonPandaCrumbs]

tee hee this is silly. 

[ladydadasnightmare]

meant to say carl not carles<33

[jayphae015]

'essence' of meaningfulbro

gettin handies from his bros at bible study

in perpetual search for the 'perfect alternative breasts'

[StrangeMoss]

I think this guy is Carles. Listen to his voice.

[StrangeMoss]

I think this guy is Carles. Listen to his voice.

[didgeridooist]

shutup. Carles is making indie into teeny bop. He WILL ruin the genre for eberyone, so go head and support, douchebags, or should I say Carles' new wave of 8-16 year-old blogfans who clearly come from the same place our Gaga fans came from trying too hard to be different.

[Ftfunkjo]

Glenn Beck and Carles ftw yall

[thecardscanlie]

Why would you do this?

It's all a joke. I never got one of those shirts, though I wanted one; I just don't undesrtand this.

[jlwalker09]

carles, you are a bad person and you need to change... Go Carles!

[jlwalker09]

go carles!

[4Colours]

still waitin on that show be cancelled bro

[swisstaco5]

Lol BiskitFoo.

[simoneaolson]

Carles troll'd this bro hard

[Sophistaphunk]

Pathetic how sheep-like some of you are.

[Sophistaphunk]

If you guys think HR is satire, then i fear for the stupidity and comprehension skills of American youth. Carles is as tolerant as Glen Beck. He's not making anyone "think" at all, except maybe that he's an asshole.

[brobito]

dude are you serious?

[JcdJulz]

This guy is right. Hipster Runoff is the shittiest site I've ever read. It's just people who set out to make fun of the hipster subculture and soon got lost within the dense layer of cynicism they intended to mock.

[swisstaco5]

dense layer of cynicism

[regisjin]

Carles you are a sick genious.

[jotafrisco]

So ghey

[MrAria44]

you are carles

i am carles

we are all carles.

[Humorsrevenge]

u probably started a blog and realized Carles is the all time blogger and your nowhere close... lame

[EmyAugustus]

hahahhahahhaha this is soooo funny comments and all!

[jack00008]

miss u h8ful bro.

[blahpoopman]

have you heard of sarcasm man?

[miuzername]

What r u, mormon? H8 this.

[ericmurphy13]

Great underground advertising campaign. Bet Carles is getting some 'great pub' from this.

[asphyxiafeeling]

Carlesidead(dot)com

[Henry87212]

What have you done to Carles???

[BLAG0RULES]

wait a minute.... is this a joke? like is this dude for real? It has to be a joke. Anyone who's ever actually read HRO knows there is a certain amount of tongue in cheek sarcasm involved in it. If he's taking everything literally, then there's something wrong here. And furthermore, who the fuck is this douche to tell anyone what type of media they should consume. I'll consume whatever media I like. I wasn't aware this video was being filmed by Scott Stapps even bigger moron brother.

[flambagels]

bro just burned 30 clams...

that's a lot of taco bells/KFCs

[littlesparrow]

Wait...are you for real? Because if you are, please go back to school...real school and social skills school. o_O

[tubmanrichard]

yawn

[elleybelley91]

I <3 THIS BRO

[theflyguy555]

down with hro.

[kim5106]

This guy has to be a troll.

[pizzapriestess]

uggg, 'TheHorribleSanity' , is it that you know YOU are horrible?? I fear the idiocy of both your misunderstandings and your actions, both horribly lame.

Please try harder, you are making a fool of ur self.

[thelumbahjack]

hey can u make one JUST LIKE THIS about the onion????

u can burn their papers and talk about them as if its a serious thing!

[fretforyourfigure]

I hope you understand that HRO is a whole parody on the sub-culture referred to as "Hipster"

also it is not just pertaining to music alone, it involves fashion, ideologies, technology etc .. aka "authentic lifestyle"

[thelumbahjack]

thankyouuuu!!!

the whole entire HRO site has an implied JK!

if hes prejudiced against anything... its stupid hipsters. HAHAHA

[ryams27]

My God -- I watched the first 2:30 believing this was sarcasm. There aren't words for how big a douche this guy is.

[l33t5p33k3r]

So you gave 30 bucks to Carles, a "serious hetero-sexist" in an "act of defiance"? you realize that while you were busy being a pretentious prick making youtube videos, he was making bank, right?

[vomitinglols]

"Surprise. This is what I look like." LMAO.

Your dry humor is hilarious!!!

Cute too..you seem like you have "issues" though........

[itcollapsus]

did you really pay $30 for a shirt just so you could burn it? Did you also buy a $5 bottle of spring water to put the fire out?

[slhimhr]

Those dark-rimmed glasses are not making you look any smarter. Where's your coffee? And your Obama poster? And where's your rainbow flag?

[ryams27]

Priceless.

[orinincandenza]

this a joke? what's a heterosexist? you bought that shirt just so you could burn it? this the most confusing vlog post ever. 7 fucking minutes bro, you gotta do something bout that

[InternetToasts]

wat

[Floydfreak]

hahah, serious racist and sexist? this person doesn't know what sarcasm or satire is. .....Unless this is sarcasm. [albeit bad sarcasm.]

ahhh what?

[KevMoh06]

u mad?

[solemnandleaden]

probs just jealous he doesn't have human azn furniture

[mcwinfreysmythe]

jesus man...you take SO FUCKING LONG to make your point, i fell asleep after 2 minutes.

FAIL

[chrysler5thavenue]

why do...you...talk so...slo...w?

[thafons]

im not sure how serious you are, but who the fuck goes to HRO for music? i go for the lolz

[skatebusskateshop]

wait, carles is an Asian dude, tao lin. Throwing around terms like racist and homophobe is crazy when you don't know who the guy is.

[sexlessparents]

damn, i want a " i am carles shirt"

why does he burn them

i want one,

but i am an alt who is poor

" fuck'

he is a ' wealthy/asshole'

'fuck'

[Digitaldevil423]

lol so dumb.... carles doesn't seem racist, btw. and why would you buy a t-shirt from him if you don't like him?

'i hate you, but here's $30'??

'you're a bad person, please take my money'??

lol jus' sayin'

[fatlatvian]

Ten bucks says carles put him up to it, kinda like when his blog got 'hacked'

[edwardiansnow]

lol @not understanding irony.

[kidluna]

I don't think you are either.

[tristanorchard]

haha, i love how its always a white hetro guy calling out others for being racist and homophobic.

Your mom is going to kill you when she finds out you burnt that t-shirt you bought online with her visa.

[nickbish15]

hahaha this guy is such a homo hahhaha. Carles will be deeply offended and want to change because burning bro bought a shirt (gave carles his money) and then burned it by himself what a cool kid hahaha

[louiswho]

you should have played time to pretend by that new band THE MGMT while u burned ur shirt

[louiswho]

and his name was burningBro

and he was a meme

and he was forgotten

[Wickiam]

You don't understand HRO....it's really a shame you don't...you just look like a complete idiot,

[justineppie]

this guy is a complete idiot. and it's not a "music blog" tard.

[heartagram021]

booooooooooooooooooring.

[serpent088]

Wow boring as shiiit. Also I'm pretty sure you don't 'get HRO

[abdultom]

zzzzzzzzzzzz

[succinctbeats]

[kayak0055]

[helan5]

Wow. Congratulations, you're an idiot.

[Mosreal]

You are so dumb.

Please learn the meaning of irony.

[AortalTourniquet]

Hello Carles. (it's meeeeeee ._.)

And I already know your name's Carl. You like me.

[jriktor]

Does anyone know who carles is/looks like?

[hanaiscoolindeed]

you rly don't 'get it'

[TheFeelin89]

Go read a few books on SATIRE if you're too dense to recognize it when you read it. HRO is satire. It is neither racist or sexist. Damn. You must be stupid for taking the site so seriously.

ROFL.

[ThoughtScientist]

serious prank is serious. silly carles, tricks are for 'kids' :P

[lucyisabanana]

this can't be real

[bluegreenelephant]

hey keu-t

[brenton1986]

Feel totes 'sad' that u burned a IAMCARLES shirt. But it seems kinda funnie how u don't 'get' the HipsteringRunoffs [via ur head being '2 far up ur own ass']

burning $30 of ur own money = big in 2k10???

[JackNKim]

i disagree with alot of what Hipster Runoff is about, the mainstream capitalizes on hipsters and the hipsters just have to keep finding new things to ruin. did you really buy that shirt for $30 and proceeded to burn it? what a waste. I think Carles is smart in the way of getting dissed and never returning a reply for it.

[tekington]

lol carles isn't a "heterosexist" or a "racist"

[c0rt0m4ltese]

thats carles. look at the related videos, ppl

[Squallandboco1]

That is crls, look at his shirt yall.

[dontpanicokpanic]

ha!

[dontpanicokpanic]

def not carles, bro

[PidgeonOff]

feels like this bro and his ideals are a threat to HRO. :(

[thebikesir]

loll that was awesome, could u have made that anymore less entertaining

[bluegreenelephant]

hehe

[wscmx13]

I AM CARLES

[ma1achi]

u realize how unbearably creepy you are right man?

[DJPatchwork01]

oh dear god you're an idiot.

[VigilantnotMilitant]

LOL

[krly00000]

burning a tshirt in a small room i thoguht the walls would catch on fiya

[Claymation42]

HI CRLS!!!!!

[joeeirwin]

CAN ANYONE ID THE TRACK @ 1:54?

[zoobiewa]

I am WAY more carles than you because I didn't buy in. I made my own carles shirt with sharpee marker and burned it!

[zoobiewa]

Oh. Also burned the $30 after I paypalled carles an IOU. Yoinkyness!

[dw070]

omg boring

[bluegreenelephant]

hehe

[bolt9510]

this is silliness. i'm thinking you haven't spent much time actually reading the blog. a bit artful and imaginative sometimes can deflect the oafish.

[Jssippi]

the only way this ad would've been better is if nobody would've had the thought while seeing it that it could've been an ad.

course in that case we wouldn't have been able to appreciate it for what it is but it would've reached it's most successful and buzz generating evolution.

$30.

[DangerMel]

This is totally Carles.

[gringodrum]

This is brilliant only if it is a guy pretending to be Carles pretending to be a guy who hates Carles. If so, bravo sir. If it is actually Carles, meh. If it is really just some guy.. wow.

[SheetsField]

This is very possible too. Carlos seems clever enough to pull something off of the sort.

So this is either Carlos- or, he planned on people saying, "That's really him!" and got someone to fill that roll.

But yeah, I think it's prolly Carlos. Just seems like it to me.

[discoballed]

that HRO represents; if the entire population of HRO's country of origin (USA) is taken into account, how insignificant is the site, really? it's a niche concept catering to a niche demographic. that you've spent time & money launching unfounded accusations at it only makes you look like a fool. and don't start about how i'm overreacting either: this has taken me at most 20 minutes, with a bathroom break thrown in for good measure; how long did it take you make that video again?

[discoballed]

as for carles' alleged sexism, i'm going to assume that you have concluded so due to the objectification of attractive women that appear on HRO. this is true, but have you considered that since HRO is a satirical instrument, carles can only lampoon what he sees in front of him? it is not his fault that western societies regularly objectify women, so if you like to think of yourself as some moral crusader, then perhaps you'd like to get to the roots of the problem, and not the fur on the stem...

[eastairport]

WHAT YOU FIGHT YOU BECOME

[discoballed]

and if carles is indeed truly racist, how do you explain his decision to use an asian male to model the 'I AM CARLES' t-shirt line? i mean, the model doesn't even has an english name! he's called tao lin. and in all the promotional photos i've seen of this fellow, none of them are racially insensitive.

[discoballed]

...and it is most definitely not a music blog.

now, apart from wrongly identifying HRO as a music blog, you've also levelled charges of racism and sexism against 'carles' the mysterious figure who runs HRO. speaking as a person of Asian ethnicity, i do not find HRO offensive. this is because unlike you, i understand that when opinions are expressed for the sake of satire, they are not meant to be taken seriously.

[discoballed]

despite your assertions, it is not a music blog. a simple visit to HRO (once it overcomes its technical problems) will prove my point; all the posts on its first page have NOTHING to do with music. imagine the same scenario happening on, say, stereogum, and you'll see that while HRO may occasionally dwell on music, it's not the focal point of the satire.

[discoballed]

you're missing the point.

firstly, HRO is not meant to offend anyone. it's a satirical instrument that makes fun of the attitudes, lifestyles, and dress-sense of people who listen to certain types of music, live in a certain way, and dress in a certain fashion; these people are known as "hipsters".

[botacular]

so he is either terrible at spotting satire (in the form of HRO) OR i am terrible at spotting his sarcasm....

i'm going to go with the first one....?

[botacular]

after watching the whole thing, I'm not sure.

[nectarandambrosia]

Pretty sure this is Carles

[SheetsField]

Totally think it is too bro.

[botacular]

haha it's possible.

[xUltimatumsForEgosx]

rly nice abs

[ezmac028]

what a complete moron. does this guy seriously fail to understand that 'Carles' is a pen name; a fictional character that the author assumes to parody people who make videos just like this?? His character expresses absurd viewpoints and opinions for the sake of IRONY!!! HE IS MOCKING those that he parodies. this guy is either a.) stupid as fuck, unable to grasp the irony of the 'Carles' character, or b.) full of shit and trying to get attention.

[botacular]

thank you.

[heyben]

This is Carles himself.

[nalbmalfoy]

i think this is hackster runoff

[frackle]

ih8crls

[kfoxbetch]

[YourMyTubeSpace]

viral marketing

[whoopi]

You're wack!

[TheAsh88]

i like the point you're making, but buying his shirt isn't the best way to do it

[otisredding44]

good point bro. carles is out of line. racist sexist asshole.

[nickreppert]

Troll.

[wickedpidgeon]

It's weird that you would spend so much time trying to make a point against HRO yet you really have nothing to say. BURN BABY BURN!!!

[yv3s5]

lol you're a dumb. carles probably had a good giggle about this post, although i'm pretty sure carles is more than one person.

[rednailsbluelips]

hipsterrunoff just says Database Error.

FREAKING OUT. panic attackssss

[kidrobottt]

idiot

[disqo21]

you suck. find your own ideas and burn them. fag.

[spyfive]

[rednailsbluelips]

lol. and he's condemning it all as he's wearing the I am carles shirt. that he paid 30 bucks for.

this can't be real.

[steeeztube]

ooOOoooh!!! Look at ur kute lil' boddy!! @4:00

[15sk15]

Your lack of charisma is nearly horrifying. And you're kind of a square :p

[avoidantconsumer]

this bro's voice sounds an awful lot like carles' voice on the HRO podcast... just sayin

[jojolaguitare12]

DIE CARLES
