I don’t listen to indie music so I dunno if this is legit, I just thought it was kinda fun.

    got my first indi album in 1997(?) when my parents sent me into a radio station to pick up tickets we had won on one of those call in radio contests. while I was in the lobby some Internet walked out with two CDs in her hands. she told me to pick one. and then she handed me that one and walked off.

    It ended up being Pavement, brighten the corners. for a kid in highschool it ended up being pretty life changing.

      some Internet walked out

      I know it’s meant to say “intern”, but the mental image of the biblically accurate incarnation of the Internet randomly handing you one of two CDs like a red pill/blue pill offer is hilarious.
