the RF counter Culture

[Sparrow]

come'n chaps, the pseuds are catching up

Hilarious stuff, but mostly true. A lot of these apply to RFFers, whatever your tribe.

Stuff White People Like can be a total scream, but it seems like it's not updated nearly as often lately as it once was.

Another one is Stuff God Hates:

Not for those who take things too seriously ...

We have rather narrow taste, I'm afraid.

more coffee? (#1)

 

[Jonas Adolfsen]

Have RF
Beer is for barbarians
Betty page was before my time
And so was Bauhaus, the real Bauhaus, but i adore them.

 

[NDAv]

I know the band Bauhaus, but somehow I take it you are not referring to that awesome band.

I don't have a rangefinder, I don't like beer (unless in the company of other people), and I never heard of Betty Page before.

 

[Ezzie]

Bauhaus, well yes I thought of the improvement store, but in honesty I thought the question was if one has knowledge what Bauhaus modernist architecture is (all) about. Since we are talking photography or photographic interest(ok in a loose sense) here?

Oh, and I'm surprised not more are fond of beer. Is that at all possible? (not being fond of beer). There's a beer for every taste, if you don't like beer, you've not found your brew yet.

 

[OurManInTangier]

I'm amazed rangefinders haven't made it to this list:

after all, Moleskine Notebooks have:

OMG! I'm white

Moleskin notebook - check
Old cameras - check
Desmond Dekker ( probably lumped in with Marley ) - check
Living near water - check

I always knew I wasn't cool but never realised how uncool I really am!

Beer is nectar, Bishop's Finger is Soma
Bettie passed me by but Sam and Linda certainly didn't, neither did Sabrina for that matter. I remember scrutinising the bit in her video where she got out of the pool more times than is healthy for an eleven year old simply because rumour had it one of her nipples was visible.

Have I said too much? Revealed myself as the pathetic saddo I suspect I really am? I think so!

Here, in the UK, Moleskins are pants … and pants are … oh never mind

How many RFF counters are out there, and how is this a culture?

 

[Copied21]

During the same time we had Italian 'singer' Sabrina to lust over on the mainland. It was the summer I gave up Lego forgood. Beer was still four years away in my case (made up for that since) and the RF bug only got me three years ago, but man, did it bite.

i still like beer very much, but i no longer drink the kind with alcohol in it. yeungling's non-alcoholic brew is excellent ...

 

[ErnestoJL]

Here in Argentina we drink mostly red wine. Beer is a soft drink for hot summers.

Of course, I'm still puzzling over whoever wrote in the header that Susan Sontag is one of the best authors on the subject of photography. I tried to read her book "On Photography" once upon a time and found her to be utterly inarticulate.

Others agree with you. A.D. Coleman has written about her poor grasps of what photography was really about, as have other critics who, like Coleman, specialized in photo criticism or history.

 

[Paul Luscher]

Bauhaus--do you mean the German architectural movement, or the 80's musical group?

 

[wotalegend]

I'm 63 and I have never heard of Betty/Bettie Page. Just had to google her.

 

[Sparrow]

... googled Bettie Page, eh?

 

[cloud worlds]

1;Yes, have one 2; Can't drink beer, allergic 3; Too young to remember her, but I knew of her 4; You mean Bauhaus, the band?

 

[israel_alanis]

Yes RF, just one beer thank, off course Betty Page and the Pin-up Photograhy, I saw Betty page rules when I was young, and I have not to Google Bauhaus, We know Bauhaus of course a friend of mine study there and I am a rhetoric, hermeneutic and semiotic student of Bauhaus.
