Philebutards Beware

...As a blog, we here at Ugh News have often hinted or alluded to a cretin type of person, with the overwhelming assumption that we were all on the same page. While never actually pointing any... well, let's say phingers...


Yeah, that shit's over.


Photobucket

(Thumbs up in drunk photograph = "I have been with less then two women, and she/he is one of them.")


With an alarming influx of flaccid nightlife photog blogs, comes an equally yawn-inducing influx of people, whom we here at Ugh News are coming to call,“Philebutards.” (Aka people whom live in Philly, think they are well known, act as such at bars and DJ nights, then loom in front of the nearest photog awaiting their newest default photo.) And we plan to bring them to social justice.


If you are obnoxious enough to be one of these people, beware. You will be made fun of... (Unless, that is of course... you don't alway look like you just biked from South Philly, are a good dancer, or if you dress cute, or if we like your hair/shoes/or nails, or if you're our friend.) Yeah, so watch out bitches.


And because it's pretty obvious who we are alluding to, let's begin with Philebrity, and their photog's sister or girlfriend or something...

(Yet another example of how American Apparel has style fucked our generation. Hoodies at bars = insecure girls looking for an easy out, and girls who look like they've biked from South Philly everywhere.)


While there were some cuties...

(Cute foursome who look over 30; Cute bathroom; Cute everything.)


We were really surprised by the amount of photos of that same girl. (Is she in a band or something?) Whatever, she has good skin, but seriously, either Phiberity's new photog shoots from a very heavy tripod in the conner of bars or they've thrown in the towel choosing to view their only competition as DigPhilly.com (Which we think they might have done.)

(DigPhilly.com photos = Us one step closer to becoming Ugh News Portland.)


Either way, let's thank them for helping us create our (already) new favorite word/new Ugh News series: Philebutards

well, as i figured, thankfully none of those shots are from Sex Dwarf!!

We're a Philebutard-free zone, after all

Oh wow Conrad. Just...W O W.

I'm afraid to say who I am, because I might be in some photos like that, but I also viewed them with complete confusion. There are only about 10 photos and they are mostly of weird people sitting around. If nothing else, take photos of people wearing fly outfits or bustin' out of their sweat-stained poly-blends.

I know you and I saw you last week. You had a vest on. HOLLA!

I see this blog entry's author in more of those pictures than anybody. It seems like he goes out of his way to get his picture taken.

I bet you have an entire section on your myspace of you out at bars posing with your hipster friends all wearing AA v-necks.

Wow. Let's contrast statement with the contents of the author's myspace photo collection.

Ok, Anonymous

It's a joke. I'm obviously apart of Philly nightlife. I'm making fun of myself, my friends, and the scene as a whole as much as I am making fun of the "Philebutards." This is a recurring theme on Ugh News.

Remember: Ugh News is not required reading. If you're not into it, get out of it.
