We appreciate your interest in Sub Pop and wish you the best in your pursuit.

How not having a car became Hollywood shorthand for loser. »

Good article, especially all the references in movies to insults about characters not being able to drive.  I never even noticed that before.  I think it is because movies are made in L.A. where the public transportation is still sub-par.  The part about 500 Days of Summer being originally set in San Francisco makes a WHOLE lot of sense.  I couldn’t be sure exactly where they were for most of that movie!
