Ah, that's interesting. Reagan certainly sucked in a lot of rock stars who should have known better (looking at you, Neil Young).

What do you mean by "like that"? Eloquence?

Where did you hear that about Iggy Pop? I've been listening to his BBC Radio show and his John Peel lecture recently, and when he touches on politics it's never seemed to be from a Republican or even right-libertarian viewpoint.

But with underage girls, so the comparison stands!

Wikipedia has a good list of notable people who've had the toothbrush moustache, as it would probably prefer to be called if it were sentient. My favourite was Moshe Sharitt, the second Prime Minister of Israel. There are fashion faux pas, and then there's rocking up to the Knesset with a Hitler 'tasche…

You're new on planet Earth, I take it?

I still like Sin City, despite it being the point at which Miller's issues with women became impossible to ignore. Something about the insanely excessive, hyper-concentrated noir universe it takes place in makes it feel less offensive and more inevitable that so many female characters are prostitutes.

I don't know, Jezebel would run twelve articles on how it was super problematic, then turn around and cheer when Rihanna did the exact same thing four months later.

For me, it's his tongue poking slightly out, as though he were a pervy lizard.

That's surely what a lot of them are riffing off. In terms of things before that, 'Getting Better' by the Beatles is not quite the same, but similar.

Are you seriously disregarding the groundbreaking papers on the human genome by Professor Pissflaps McVulva?

'It's a Beautiful Day' always reminds me of that point in the mid-to-late 90s where it was obvious that Britpop had peaked, but to a lot of the mainstream music industry it was still this exciting new thing, so a lot of pop stars whose careers were struggling had to suddenly invest in horn sections, put on broad…

I'd never considered this before, but I wonder if that was an in-joke about the rumours of Rigg disliking Lazenby?

Due to his "lavish lifestyle", according to Wikipedia. I wonder what that's a euphemism for?

Oh man, I want to be there when this guy finds out about Michael Savage's past with Allen Ginsberg.

Or let us kill you and dress it up like a suicide.

Or what Lord Byron said about Viscount Castlereagh!

He came out against it by the end of the film, but lingered on it for long enough that it gave people the impression that he was endorsing it.
