Yeah, him. Me too, except when I get paid. Then it's " '80s Hits".
Quesadillas are only avant-garde if you put hummus in them. And even then they run the risk of only being "nuevo". |

I haven't read through the whole thread but having looked a bit I heartily recommend you have a look at this book:

I don't know what a lolpwn is but I think I share your sentiments...ie Sokal did a good thing.

lol = laugh out loud
pwn = victory Personally, I'm pretty critical of the idea that postmodernism is a unified school of philosophy so I do agree with Sokal in criticizing those who treat it as such but I'm also wary that he commits the error as well to some extent. However, that's just speculation since I haven't bothered to read his publications. |

I was with the sonics this summer and I called a lamp avant-garde in a snooty voice as a joke and Thurston and Kim laughed and Lee was like "no, it's not quite avant-garde."
