This proves to me you've read little of what I actually said.

Done with this conversation until you actually read what I've posted and stop being defensive just cause I said the words "lily-white people with penises" or whatever it was I said that got your panties all in a bunch so that you can't respond to anything. And note here that I'm allowing for the idea that it's not your reading comprehension that's the problem.

And still, you're wrong. Here it is again: Just 'cause you don't like a culture or you find it's economic underpinnings morally reprehensible doesn't mean it's not a culture.

If it were the case that outrageous oppression rendered a society cultureless, there would be no culture. EVER.

I can't believe this. You've been posting under that name for all these years and you don't know this. And freaking Mr. Yeats doesn't know what EOMS is. What's going on around here?!??!

ANYWAYS, I was a Duranie, so I know there's no way that, as a 17 old boy, you could have admitted this to anyone! Interestingly, cool-o-meter rag Vice published an article a few years back saying how Duran Duran were actually really good and rocked and how that was safe to say now. So the hipsters are behind us, if that makes you feel any better. I know it doesn't make me feel better. ;-p

Your list does not make me puke, though I never liked The Cure or The Smiths. I also loved Bananarama, particularly Siobhan Fahey (whose son is now Georgia Jagger's boyfriend), who I think proved her mettle with Shakespear's Sister. My favorite Duran member was Andy Taylor, and to that end I once went to see Power Station at the House of Blues here in Chicago and ended up doing blow backstage with Tony Thompson who then absconded with my ID, as he had been using it to cut lines.
