Sure, there's some exaggeration, a little bit of a put-on, perhaps, but that is no excuse. Have the sins of the hipsters taught us nothing?
Personally, I've always been tempted to read "No One Else" as if it were "My Last Duchess". But you aren't arguing it, and the post's take on the whole Rivers Cuomo picture makes it feel...unlikely.
And! That the underlying emotions are sometimes (often!) odious is sort of neither here nor there. is just wrong. What's the point of being honest about your odious emotions if you're not going to, you know, reflect on them a bit? "Yes, I know I'm a creepy sexist asshole. That is all."
