Re: [bomp] its getting silly

[Michael Baker <roky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

disentangling the layers of irony (eg the clash, perfume; willaim faulkner; 
maker's mark; the jam, 30000 dollar cars) re music and advertising (as 
opposed to tired criticisms by people who live in their mommies' basements 
re "selling out"--hell i'd sell my dyke sis for 20 bucks if it would mean( 
a). import beer that night or (b). she'd be happy for one fucking day in her 
life) is fun and pop cult criticism at its finest--but then i remember that 
it's simply thirty and somethings on mad ave who care not a thing about 
origins, meanings, semiotics, or desire/consciousness


but yr example is the best yet re confusion, irony, misplaced signifiers


time to ogle sharapova--
