I hate iconoclasts, self-declared or otherwise. Why? There are limits to their iconoclasm. As the tales of certain fearless animations and operas tell us the same people who cackle psychotically over Christians do a
Star Trek transporter vanishing act when faced with M----ms. Also they can dish it out but can't take it; they'll attack your supposed bad taste but accuse them of philistinism or groupthink and they'll scream as though Comedy Central went out of business -- or like an army of
KATHRYNS. Worse, they tend to be Machiavellis -- and MARKETERS.
We mention this because up north is congealing
a classic case of self-declared iconoclasm (A NEUHARTHISM OF THE WEEK AWARD TO GUY GUY!), and we suspect everyone behind it is precisely the sort of fake we've just mentioned. All the better to make the millions they probably won't make. That it's coming from THE AMERICAS' MOST POLITICALLY CORRECT COUNTRYâ„¢ enhances the smell.
I want to see SAMMY GLICK...MAN dance around this one.
