wait wait wait what’s the deal with the Simpsons faithful and Grimes? The wiki entry doesn’t detail any umbrage!

moderately off topic: my favorite part of hte Fab Five documentary was the bit about black socks. One day those dudes decided to rock black socks, something that was deemed super uncool until they decided they wanted to do it, and bam, black socks, everywhere since.

eh, I like his writing (and understand why people don’t), and I know the following won’t change yours or anyone’s mind about the guy, but here’s my response: tongue clucking over his word salad patois is sliiiiightly unfair.
