Posted by HannahPaige on 5 Dec 2005 at 3:26 pm:

I’m so post modern that I…really like this ..song…

*weeps*

Posted by Lauren on 5 Dec 2005 at 10:14 pm:

LUVN THE SONG!
Its Awsome!
Im So Postmodern That I Cant Stop Listening To This Song!

Posted by Daneo on 6 Dec 2005 at 9:16 pm:

Im so post-modern i bought the CD instead of downloading it off the Internet

Posted by Wonko the Sane on 10 Dec 2005 at 7:08 pm:

I’m not post-modern, but I _LOVE_ this song!

(Actually, I was trying to write the lyrics myself, and got up to the Shakespeare one before I was given the link to this page from my girlfriend. :-D )

But… What is “Nuttelex”?

Posted by HannahPaige on 11 Dec 2005 at 8:09 am:

Nuttelex is a vegan margarine that my mum likes. It’s a really pale yellow/white colour and is packaged in a cube with a picture of a squirrel.

Posted by Jessie on 15 Dec 2005 at 2:23 pm:

I love this song, but I’ve only heard it twice on triple j.. ironically on the way to a concert where they played a Chicago medly. Just so you know, Im buying the album for christmas.

Posted by Thomas on 19 Dec 2005 at 10:56 am:

If you’re reading this you’d better do a rendition at Falls Festival this year man!

Posted by tennille on 26 Dec 2005 at 3:33 am:

no matter how many times i listen to this song, one line always leaves me in stitches … i couldnt say which line because it changes depending on my mood :-P

Posted by Greg on 26 Dec 2005 at 2:46 pm:

I’m so postmodern that I armwrestle dead penguins twice weekly in case it rains. Also, I like your song. It has words.

Posted by Gilox on 26 Dec 2005 at 3:11 pm:

I’m old enough to be one of the Other People’s Nans (although I’m not, yet …) and my boyfriend , who is old enough to be anyone’s pop, bought me your CD for Christmas coz I liked your so postmodern song. Would love to see your slideshow …

Posted by me on 1 Jan 2006 at 11:18 am:

im so post modern that i bought a teddy bear, painted it pink, and gave it to a lobster

Posted by daniel on 1 Jan 2006 at 8:04 pm:

i’m so post modern that at falls i watched you sing and got a photo taken with the lead singer from faker and then realised you lived near where i do.. nifty

Posted by ? on 1 Jan 2006 at 11:35 pm:

this song is just so indeed post modern!!!
so rad it hurts!!! …
so post modern it hurts!!!
i voted for it in the triple j hottest 100 because im just as post modern (well i’m not really but i’d like to think so) and everyone should be as pretend post modern and do the same
xxxxxxx

Posted by Yogo on 2 Jan 2006 at 12:40 am:

Love this song, as always. Not quite postmodern - I barely keep up with myself. Anyway.

Could the “Law banning Nuttelex” line possibly be a reference to your strong dislike of Megan the vegan? Just wondering. Seemed suspicious.

Posted by HannahPaige on 2 Jan 2006 at 9:32 am:

Hey! I came to that conclusion too!
But the stuff can also taste pretty dodgy sometimes, depending on the taste already inhabiting your mouth.

Posted by Holly on 2 Jan 2006 at 2:25 pm:

I’m so post modern that i cant think of something post modern to say on this comments page. Dammit. You’re really cool btw. Love the songs. =D

Posted by TheRealShrimp on 2 Jan 2006 at 7:19 pm:

I’m so post modern that for the fist time i herd your song at the falls it has been stuck in my head ever since and im gonna buy your CD soon but im sleepy so í wont do it now and i think your my real dad and i am striving to be like you because i’m so postmodern……

Posted by Hanne on 3 Jan 2006 at 12:44 am:

ew… vegemite…

Posted by Flash Dan on 3 Jan 2006 at 8:14 pm:

This song is pritty muchly the best thing since sliced bread, aint laughed so hard EVER.

Posted by Kim on 6 Jan 2006 at 12:05 am:

Did the bedroom philosopher do that abc song at falls as well?

I was kinda drunk off my titties at the time.

Awesome song btw!!!1

Posted by Angela on 9 Jan 2006 at 7:48 pm:

Heard you on JJJ, Saw & met you at falls, voted for this song on the hottest 100….this song is the best ever!

Posted by Kieran Sullivan on 9 Jan 2006 at 10:09 pm:

I know her up above me in this comment list. she is nice. lots of people are nice that I know.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 19 Jan 2006 at 2:20 pm:

i’m So postmodern i read all these replies, call them personally and ask them what they think about John Canane’s choice of toenail polish

Posted by Reece Icle on 20 Jan 2006 at 8:15 am:

Posted by ange on 21 Jan 2006 at 6:24 pm:

Hng on, this isn’t the Tim Rogers website.

I was at that 1997 silverchair concert. The person in front of me was wearing a Hanson tshirt and I though Adalita was a boy.

Posted by HannahPaige on 22 Jan 2006 at 9:25 pm:

Hey! Mrs Mia Wallace??

disco..

Posted by Jo on 23 Jan 2006 at 7:55 pm:

I’m so postmodern that I printed out the lyrics in black and white and posted them around my office here in London…

Posted by *Elyse* on 25 Jan 2006 at 6:21 pm:

i’m so postmodern i printed your comments, in hebrew. i sleep with them at night. I’m so post modern my fish is my religious leader, and he should be yours
btw, im not really post modern im just so jealous that im not like you all

Posted by lizz on 26 Jan 2006 at 12:32 pm:

im so post modern that i tried toi buy this album at a retirement home riding a shetland pony.
im so post modern that i hold funerals for grass hoppers, soaked nail vanish, glued to a foosball table.

Posted by M on 26 Jan 2006 at 6:10 pm:

omg i just want to take this song to a shabu shabu restaurant, cook it in that mystery soup then roll in it naked

Posted by pomo on 26 Jan 2006 at 6:28 pm:

This song is genius

Posted by alicia vaux on 26 Jan 2006 at 6:44 pm:

i’m so postmodern i rode a donkey to Atlantis, then swam in Loch Ness, with a picture of the Queen.

Posted by Josh on 27 Jan 2006 at 2:49 pm:

I’m so postmodern that im writting a comment about an awsome song!

Posted by emma on 27 Jan 2006 at 6:17 pm:

i’m so… going to say that i really like this song without referring to post-modernism… *sigh* there goes that one.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 27 Jan 2006 at 8:15 pm:

I’m So Postmodern I … Okay, I’ll be serious this time… this is a great song and I wanted to vote for it in the hottest 100 this year… but my email was broken.So I resolved my teenage angt by stalking Liam Gallagher, just to tell him to lay off the Kaiser Chiefs, it’s not very nice…

Posted by slim jim on 27 Jan 2006 at 8:52 pm:

very funny song… a little too funny maybe. i reckon someone should write a song about the fact eating to much peanut butter makes you an instant arsehole

Posted by HannahPaige on 27 Jan 2006 at 9:20 pm:

I don’t like peanut butter. I’m sure that apricot jam has far more appealing qualities.

Posted by tickle me justin on 28 Jan 2006 at 7:40 pm:

Australia’s so post modern they voted Bernard Fanning 71 spots above Im So Postmodern in the triple j hottest 100…
worst

Posted by Erin on 29 Jan 2006 at 9:55 am:

yeah, congrats on making the hottest 100. im still mad at australia for voting for bernard, its dreadful

Posted by Todd on 29 Jan 2006 at 10:08 am:

I’m so post modern I put nacho cheese in my pants, threw up on my shirt then hugged kittens on the freeway.
I’m so post modern I drank the bong water, before it was used.
I’m so post modern I eat books like “The complete works of tolstoy” then wipe my mouth with the bible.
I’m so post modern, I e-mailed Sigmund Freud and said “Hello Daddy”

Well thats all i could think of, so yea, great song, very well post modern.

Posted by joe F on 29 Jan 2006 at 1:10 pm:

im so postmodren that i comment on songs that dont actully exist….
except for this song its absolutly hillarious. well done.

Posted by SAM IS FAT on 31 Jan 2006 at 3:00 pm:

I LIKE CHEESE

Posted by SAM IS FAT on 31 Jan 2006 at 3:00 pm:

EAT MY POO POO

Posted by Mia Wallace on 31 Jan 2006 at 4:18 pm:

I agree about Bernard Fanning- alright song but it kinda took me by surprise.As for the guy’s rude messages above me…GET A LIFE!!!
Anyway…it is nice to see more people are getting to know this song and other people’s adaptations to it.
P.S- Big Day Out rocked!!!

Posted by HannahPaige on 31 Jan 2006 at 6:56 pm:

I agree!
The bidding didn’t get any higher than $1 for Alex Kapranos, even though half the audience put their hands up =p

Posted by Pat is beautiful on 31 Jan 2006 at 8:21 pm:

Pat is a fat lard and cheese him up!

Posted by YAYAYAY!!! on 31 Jan 2006 at 8:24 pm:

I agree with SAM IS FAT’s comment i do like cheese and i think that Mia Wallace should shut her fat face…or she can eat my poo poo

Posted by Winston on 31 Jan 2006 at 8:24 pm:

Honestly chaps, I’m from England (Hampshire to be exact) and i don’t come across many songs like this one. I think this is marvellous. I’ve shown all my friends in England and we think its smashing. Top work pilots!

PS. Mia please leave Sam alone, its not his fault he’s a little slow

Posted by Bernard fanning on 31 Jan 2006 at 8:27 pm:

don’t dis my song lads I mean it I poured my heart and soul into those lyrics and you just have to shoot me down goodd thing Im a tank

Posted by Bernard Fanning on 31 Jan 2006 at 8:38 pm:

NO IM BERNARD FANNING!!!

but thankyou, all that the fake Bernard has said is in fact true. I am crushed. Why does everyone have to be so mean to me. BLAH BLAH BLAH POWDERFINGER ARE BETTER!!! I AM POWDERFINGER GODDAM U!!! Y!!!

Rock On Sam!!!

Posted by Justin on 1 Feb 2006 at 9:10 am:

I love you all unconditionally, but…NO teasing in my e-kitchen please! Or else I’ll set Kerry the Metaphysical Drummer onto you. He knows where you all e-live. When he/she gets mad they send out a bizarre virus of kirstey alley picking her toenails and rubbing balm into her heels and she just sits on the corner of your screen and no matter what you click or press she won’t go away.

Posted by Justin on 1 Feb 2006 at 9:15 am:

Superlicious thanks Pooglets! I’m so overjoyed and weeping and eating toast and all of the above. I vote for all of you in the Hottest 1 of life! Get ready for the dance remix of ‘I’m So PostModern’ on a forthcoming double a-side single with a remixed ‘Folkstar.’ It’s going to be seriously post-contemporary!

Posted by Rah on 1 Feb 2006 at 12:46 pm:

Saw you at Falls. Laughed.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 1 Feb 2006 at 2:32 pm:

I’m sorry guys… I didn’t know you all felt so strongly for Sam Is fat…and I don’t hate Bernard Fanning, I just said I wasn’t expecting him to be on number 1! my head that night was somewhere in between an icecream binge and suffering withdrawals from Spongebob Squarepants.
Anyway, did Alex Kapranos really only get $1?! Surely that Scottsman is worth $3.50!
Keep up the good work Justin, you deserved much higher than #72 on hottest 100!

BATMAN WAS HERE

Posted by Emily.M. on 1 Feb 2006 at 6:08 pm:

Wow! this comment list just keeps getting bigger and bigger! But it’s not a bad thing.

Posted by qwerty on 1 Feb 2006 at 7:06 pm:

my brother made up another lyric spontaneously after listening to this on the hottest 100 [congrats by the way] because i bought 12 bread rolls for 5 people:

heh-hem

“I’m so post modern that i buy twelve thousand bread rolls and mail them to people whos names start with L”

i thought it was a good one

Posted by megsmad on 3 Feb 2006 at 4:13 pm:

i love this song! you got into triple j’s hotest 1`00 with it congratulations! my favourite line is “i’m so post modern i make alphabet soup, dye it purple and throw it on the lawn”

it’s great! :D

Posted by Natalia on 4 Feb 2006 at 9:10 am:

Dude, you better get on Tripe J’s C.D! I’m peeved about Bernard Fanning AND the Gorillaz! Why are conformists voting and icky-ing up the votes!

you rock hard! alla my friends are falling in love with your song! :D

I wish i could’ve voted but my computer is “so postmodern” it seems that it’s too good to work for me. grrrr.

Posted by Georgia on 4 Feb 2006 at 9:53 pm:

this is the awsomest song ever! its just so cool and random..love every second of it!!

Posted by Sam on 5 Feb 2006 at 5:45 pm:

Omfg Mia Wallace how could u bee so meeeeean!!! BLAM BLAM …………………………………………………………. *cry*

anyonw who said im so post modern i replied to this thread should slam their head in a cardoor and then finish themselves off

Posted by I Am The Real BERNERD FANNING on 5 Feb 2006 at 5:47 pm:

DURRRRRR PAT EATS POO POO

Posted by Mia Wallace on 6 Feb 2006 at 3:56 pm:

i’m sorry, Sam, but I did apologise.
Anyway, good news: this song has reached Sea FM!( A very popular radio station on the central coast of NSW,) and now I’ve heard it twice on that station! Someone rang up and requsted it in the all- aussie hour. That’s pretty good for a station who usually only plays Pussycat Dolls and radio-friendly MOR rock.
P.S RHCP rock!

Posted by Sam on 7 Feb 2006 at 10:27 am:

go die

Posted by Anna La Rose!! on 8 Feb 2006 at 8:16 pm:

ok well i only heard this song this arvo but i love it, it has truly inspired me!!!!! very inspiring song indeed…..

Posted by Mia Wallace on 9 Feb 2006 at 3:46 pm:

dearie me, Sam- don’t worry, be happy!
It takes a lot less effort to be nice :)
I heard a rumor Justin was going to be at the big day out next year.
Bring on Bedroom Philosopher T shirts!

Posted by HannahPaige on 10 Feb 2006 at 8:42 pm:

Oh! Don’t tease Mia, we can only hope as of yet.

Posted by Aleks on 11 Feb 2006 at 1:17 pm:

Tre Cool! I’m wif u Sam!!!!

Posted by Mia Wallace on 11 Feb 2006 at 1:57 pm:

has anyone else heard that rumor, or am I too gullible? Well, only Justin knows for sure!
I’m not teasing, but my friends most probably were…

Posted by Pinky on 11 Feb 2006 at 2:05 pm:

With all these suggestions, there’s probably enough to write a sequel!

I have one: I’m so postmodern I sent a lettuce in the mail to the queen so she’d give me a raddish of diplomatic immunity.

Posted by skamy on 11 Feb 2006 at 3:47 pm:

I’m so postmodern i bought a teddy bear at a 2nd hand clothes shop, cut off its ears and reshaped it to look like a duck, stuffed it with baked beans and sent it floating in the ocean with a note in its beak reading “im so postmodern”.

Posted by Alex! on 12 Feb 2006 at 1:57 am:

Happy birthday to me…
I’m so post modern I threw a party 9 months to the day I was born so I could celebrate the day I was concieved.

Posted by Beattme on 12 Feb 2006 at 12:10 pm:

Love the song. Desrved higher than #72. It feels like somethings missing at school without you alex

Posted by lynda on 12 Feb 2006 at 8:15 pm:

Posted by BIG D on 13 Feb 2006 at 12:06 am:

Posted by Doogie on 13 Feb 2006 at 8:27 pm:

Im so post modern i dont listen to music i have it sent to my brain teelepathically, this one i liked.

Posted by John Howard on 15 Feb 2006 at 6:15 am:

I’m so post modern I take “illegal immigrants”, provide them remote, indefinite accommodations, wait until they crack, and send them back home.

Posted by fucken-groovy-sister on 15 Feb 2006 at 2:52 pm:

I’m so post-modern i made my own radio show, called it Panasonic and chucked out all my curtains

Posted by freakazoid on 15 Feb 2006 at 2:56 pm:

I’m So Postmodern that i bought a calculator, translated the instructions to hebrew and sent them to myself

Posted by elizabeth on 15 Feb 2006 at 5:13 pm:

how can you be the real bernard fanning when you can’t even spell bernard?

Posted by elizabeth on 15 Feb 2006 at 5:14 pm:

the clip for this song is great

Posted by Shelly/Charlene?? on 15 Feb 2006 at 8:59 pm:

i bet that Sam looks on the dancefloor..mia eat my poo poo please..

Posted by Kate on 16 Feb 2006 at 4:28 pm:

this song was a sick one.
i enjoyed it.
that is all.

Posted by Lou on 17 Feb 2006 at 9:29 am:

Love this song!! Was good to see you perform it at UC. Love your humour.

Posted by Society’s fungus on 18 Feb 2006 at 3:01 am:

i wil admit to downloading all my music off the net. i havent bought a cd in years, firstly because all the songs i wanted where by artists that can afford it, or the rest of the cd was so shit that humainly disposing of it in a shalow grave would be an insult to mother nature. but i think ill buy your cd. not sure why as i try not to think to much as that leads to sanity and rationalisation. so in short you could probale use the dosh and your a hoot, worth a punt at any rate.

Posted by Joey Joe Joe on 22 Feb 2006 at 6:59 pm:

I’m so post modern that i rewrote a history book, wrapped it in alfoil and mailed it to myself.

I’m so post modern that I train pandas, dress them up as humans and enter them into the symmetrise swimming events in the olympics.
I’m so post modern that I bought a welcome mat, wrote a note saying I noticed that you have a poor quality mat, then replace it with the poorer one I bought.

Posted by Midge on 25 Feb 2006 at 6:28 pm:

Man, I love this song. Though seriously - “I’m so post-modern I write four thousand-word essays on the cultural significance of party pies,” - doesn’t everyone do that?

Midge.

PS. I’m so post-post-modern I worship santa claus, eat nothing but rubber and like to smell other people’s feet. And just one ‘post’ isn’t good enough for me.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 26 Feb 2006 at 1:46 pm:

Any chance of a sequel, Justin? Pinky said something about it a while back.
I’m sure Hannah Paige would be down with the idea, too!

Posted by Ben on 26 Feb 2006 at 6:43 pm:

Hey Justin! It’s Ben the infinate rainbow spacebag of cosmic yay-yay here! my 2 bros went to your gig at the mandarin club last nite! they loved it they thought u were heaps funny.

love the song btw

Posted by HannahPaige on 5 Mar 2006 at 10:41 am:

Mia Wallace,wanna have lunch some time? We could get a $5 shake =D

Just, can you feel the lurve? ^-^

Posted by Mia Wallace on 5 Mar 2006 at 2:29 pm:

Woooooooooo… :P
My postmodernism denotes only $6 shakes to be on my yellow- only diet.
Anyone else for a sequel?

Posted by Mia Wallace on 5 Mar 2006 at 2:49 pm:

BTW, to answer ‘It’s Meeeeeeee’s’ question, postmodern means to not follow the mainstream, maybe to not have anything to do with it, even predict or lead the way for the REAL cool people, and to be cool in your own right, kinda like Chris Martin.
Just for fun in spinning out the moral majority, it can even be like when in the Simpsons when Barney’s girlfriend goes, “I’ll have a single plum, served in perfume, floating in a man’s hat.” (!) As long as you feel comfortable, it’s whatever you make it. (This is what happens when you write an essay on it for visual arts at school!)

Posted by peetsta on 8 Mar 2006 at 9:49 pm:

I’m so post modern i groupie’d this song then bagged it out on its own website and lied about it . :)

Posted by HannahPaige on 10 Mar 2006 at 2:50 pm:

Mia - that’s meant to be Yoko Ono!!! The Simpsons Barber Shop quartets rise and fall reflects that of the Beatles, and Barney is John (RIP). So yeah.
That’s one of my favourite Simpsons lines ^-^

Posted by Mia Wallace on 10 Mar 2006 at 4:11 pm:

I knew it was meant to be Yoko, but what she said was just so funny in a postmodernist yoko sort-of way, you have to think it’s cool and laugh at it at the same time.Have you ever seen those postmodernists that take themselves so seriously it kinda funny? It’s fun, though! finally got my friends onto this song at school( Justin’s one, that is!)
NEW RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS OUT MAY 9!!! WOOOO!!!!!
*I beat up game show hosts with rusty curtain rods*

Posted by Justin on 10 Mar 2006 at 5:18 pm:

What about the episode where Maude Flanders dies and at one stage Homer says ‘there’s Yoko Ono…eww she ruined Plastic Ono Band.’ Mia, I’m not sure who you’re working for but I assure you that the chilli peppers album sales will be ‘red hot.’ I hear their advertising campaign this year is limited to a consortium of female ‘webspace team members’ targeting semi-obscure Australian folk singers’ guestbooks and the occasional footpath chalk message in Alice Springs. May 9 is the exact date my album was released. How coincidental!

Posted by splooge on 11 Mar 2006 at 3:29 pm:

im so postmodern that i grow tadpoles in condoms and right diaries on thier growth, in ancient greek

Posted by HannahPaige on 11 Mar 2006 at 4:43 pm:

Hahaha! I’ve seen that one ^-^

I can’t believed you used the word ‘consortium.’

I love you so much Justin. In all definitions.

Everyone who’s looking forward to Justins next release raise your virtual hand.

Posted by HannahPaige on 11 Mar 2006 at 4:51 pm:

Also - Mia Wallace - I don’t think you’re picking up my Pulp Fiction references.
This breaks my itty-bitty heart but hey..I’ll live. *stares wistfully into middle distance*

Posted by candy apple on 11 Mar 2006 at 7:34 pm:

omg!!!!! i totally love this song and the film clips cool…….i cant stop laughing at it !!!!!

Posted by Mia Wallace on 11 Mar 2006 at 8:03 pm:

Oh yeah, I totally got those references, (so, I dare you to say “what!”) and I’m still waiting for the makers of fox force 5 to call me back. Anyway, Justin, if you too, want me to go post some lovely subliminal messages on Backstreet Boys.com praising the deep, meaningful lyrics of Megan the Vegan, consider it done!
Would you ever do an under-18’s show on the Central Coast of NSW?
And to Hannah Paige’s suggestion, I raise my virtual left foot.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 11 Mar 2006 at 8:10 pm:

By the way, I didn’t intend boys .com to be red, SO DONT GO TO IT!!! You might get a shock, unless you like that sorta thing!

Posted by Camera casa caso! on 15 Mar 2006 at 6:21 pm:

OMG do a show in hobart!!
YAY meaghan is my hairdresser and dylan is emo…bad dylan!

Posted by Justin on 15 Mar 2006 at 6:42 pm:

Yes well, there ’s an eastern coast tour planned in late May, including Hobart! Hey, check out the I’m So Post Modern lyric workshop, located above the I’m So Pomo lyrics in Struth Be Told. It’s academic and fun! Mia I thought boys.com would be pictures of large plastic multicoloured balls floating in the sea…but no!

Posted by casa caso! on 16 Mar 2006 at 4:54 pm:

large plastic multicoloured balls sound very interesting though!!
lol

Posted by casa caso! on 16 Mar 2006 at 4:58 pm:

eeeew an old man was jacking off nest to my friend on the bus today….sooo wrong!!!

Posted by Mia Wallace on 17 Mar 2006 at 4:30 pm:

Oh please, stop right there.
I actually think there is a cult right now as we speak in Connecticut, USA devoted to the mysterious dimential intricascies of the Large plastic multicoured balls that float in the sea.
If anyone finds this cult, I’m not interested. I find delicate paper doilies served with tartar sauce and a side of grapes far more intriguing. eg; are you REALLY looking at the doilie, or is the doilie LOOKING AT YOU? Wooooo…
That quote on colored balls seriously should be put in a song, though.
P.S- I didn’t think stairway to heaven really had a satanic message when played backwards, but spicks and specks really opened my eyes… and just proves that some people have way too much time on their hands.

Posted by Erin on 23 Mar 2006 at 3:09 pm:

Yay for way too much time!!

(and spicks and specks) =)

by the way, i can’t find the acoustic megamix =(

Posted by Justin on 24 Mar 2006 at 11:36 am:

I had to take the acoustic megamix down for a little while due to legal shananagins. (Ben Lee took a swing….he didn’t try and punch me he just stole my favourite swingset out of vengeance) It will be up again soon, hopefully. In the meantime, check out the Postmodern lyric writing concern in StruthBeTold section! Inquisitivity.

Thanks for the explanation…. I feel a little bit like that already. Actually I’m just a nerd. But nerds rock!
and biology is boring.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 29 Mar 2006 at 4:52 pm:

You’re no nerd. Anyone that is proud of it is a postmodernist, and we all respect you for that =D
It also depends what type of Biology you’re talking about, cos’ I like when they talk about animals.
You sound like a fun person! Comment more!

I first heard this song a few weeks ago when you played it on Triple J. I just wanted to say you’ve done a great job, thats the most random thing ive ever heard, fully original

Such a funny song. Congratulations on such a great piece of art, kinda reminds me of the art exhibition i never got invited to, although it only had a Chupa-chup stuck to a swimming cap. I’ve spread the word around to all my friends.
Keep writing such funny songs.

Posted by LouLou on 10 Apr 2006 at 12:49 pm:

this song is hilarious. im so post modern that im not.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 12 Apr 2006 at 3:16 pm:

Posted by Grey on 13 Apr 2006 at 5:50 pm:

it was funny. once or twice. he can do better. it does inspire me to want to see his act live, so i guess its doing what it was written for.

I’m so post-modern that i reallised that people who look at their feet when they walk are really just looking for the person who stole their shoes….

Posted by Danielle on 4 May 2006 at 8:19 pm:

Nice Song…… I think that pretty much sums it up.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 7 May 2006 at 2:05 pm:

Anytime, LouLou.
Always interested in creative ideas…
yours was indeed that!
bit of a bookendian line, and we need more of those.

Posted by bella on 16 May 2006 at 2:44 pm:

i love this song… it reminds me of the time i vacuumed up my sock. good work!

Posted by Scott on 22 May 2006 at 10:11 pm:

Funniest song ever! I have just one question

What the hell’s going on at the end?
Is it backwards, it it gibberish, can you help me out here, i’ve been trying to figure it out for ages.

Posted by Leinad retaw on 25 May 2006 at 10:25 pm:

it’s completely and totally random. I loved it, indescribable
PS:Scott, it’s meant to be gibberish

Posted by mr_plough on 26 May 2006 at 8:05 am:

I’m so post modern I think this song is so yesterday.

Posted by mr_plough on 26 May 2006 at 9:11 am:

…but I’ll hear it again tomorrow.

Posted by Mia Wallace on 26 May 2006 at 3:39 pm:

The bit at the end is adding onto the joke where he says “i’m so postmodern i recorded this song and laced it subliminally telling Shane porteus to buy a smock”
it is about the last 3/4 of the song reversed, indicating he really did put that message in there.
if you listen carefully you can hear him telling Shane Porteus to buy a smock.
Ingenious!
i hoped more peole would get that.

Posted by Daniel on 28 May 2006 at 8:42 pm:

I heard this Song on TV late at night…god its funny!..Funniest song ever The Bedroom Philospher Rocks! I’m so Postmodern That I sit Down to pee and stand up to poo at job interviews…..

Posted by Shrike on 29 May 2006 at 11:17 am:

You need tabs for this? C’mon, figure it out.

Posted by Richaod on 29 May 2006 at 9:51 pm:

I heard this song on Triple J recently. I just stood there for the duration of the song laughing my head off; not something I do often.

Who cares if it doesn’t have any variation? :P It’s awesome.

Posted by Christopher on 30 May 2006 at 1:46 pm:

I’m so postmodern I printed out a verse from this song and put it on the noticeboard above the students’ essay submission box.

Posted by Three weird dudes on 31 May 2006 at 8:05 pm:

I just went through the guidelines, and I didnt realise there were four different types. Most of the ones I just put there are Standardina, but a few could be classed as Super-Syntax, unless Im just reading too slowly. So I’ve decided to have another go, and include all 4 types somehow. If not I’ll just have fun instead!

Ahem.

I’m so postmodern that I started my computer, I’ll finish it next week…

I’m so postmodern that I realised that multiball-entities are too hard to think of so I made this one a super-syntax…

I’m so postmodern that my Grandma disowned me, my Mother doesnt like me and my Neighbours dont care…

I’m so postmodern that my mates all live in Minibusses made by Toyota, before 1985…

I’m so postmodern I sold carrots on e-bay, got a reply, and made fifty bucks…

I’m so postmodern I have no more need for currency, from now on I’ll just barter with whatever is in my pockets….

I’m so postmodern that Im going to quit my job today while looking for another one and staying unemployed….

I’m so postmodern that I boil up my Redbulls, in case of infections, caused by sheer neglect…

I’m so postmodern that I force myself to go to sleep while hanging from the Harbour Bridge with nothing but a tie…

I’m so postmodern I do radio shows in sign language, paint pictures in braile, while eating a capsicum…

I’m so postmodern that I keep running out of ideas, nope…

I’m so postmodern that I sign up to mailing lists with my name as my address, and my address as my phone number….

I’m so postmodern that I plucked 3 live chickens, in front of my teachers, in class for show and tell…

I’m so postmodern I got dumped by my Girlfriend, but refused to accept it, and were still going out…

I’m so postmodern I eat Chicken Noodle Soup, but only on a Thursday, and only when it rains…

I’m so postmodern in my mouth I stuck a lollipop, my eye I stuck a chimney and my nose a Kazooo…

I’m so postmodern I leave comments on the Bedroom Philosophers website telling him that I shall be back with some more…

I’m so post-modern that I dressed up in garbage bags and caught the ferry…to toyworld.

Stoned randomness????!!!!
if justin was stoned he’d be laughing at his own jokes the whole way through it and then walk off midway cos’ he had “the munchies.”
so… stoned?
more like…witty.
he makes it convincing.
that’s clever.
read his other blogs if you think he is just a stoned rambler…

Posted by JoebTheGreat on 1 Jul 2006 at 7:17 pm:

he means stoned randomness as in it was random (which it obviously is, as it’s postmodern) and it was as solid as a stone. So he basically said it was solid (meaning good, it works, c
