SXSW is Finally Over

Thank God

The freaks and the geeks and the self-appointed “hippsters” have all gone home — or back to their day job at Flipnotics “online coffeeshop and clothing boutique”.

Why do I hate SXSW? Well, Karmalized — who loves SXSW and actually works the show as a volunteer — hits a big reason right on the nose:

Music has started. I’ve only seen a few bands that blew me away, the rest is just really crowded and full of attitude. It’s such a jarring difference between the crowds during Film and Interactive and the ones now. The streets are full of waifish people dressed in all black, glaring their way up 6th street in an air of self loathing. Yes. You are bad ass. Now get out of my way and stop littering.

Exactly.
