but, dude, if you told some straight-out-the-suburbs
white trash wigga that Kid Rock was "dumb-as-
bricks music" with an entertaining "bad kitsch" that
was high in "dada irony," he'd probably call you
a faggot and push you really hard.
i think the true dada irony is to be found in
begining this post with "Among anyone who has
truly cultivated their taste in music to a high
degree in this day and age, there is xxxxx" and
end it by incinuating that Wells is elitist for
calling praise of Kid Rock ("dumb-as-bricks music")
retarded.
