no, the special little snowflake was an extension of the conversation as i acknowledged. nor was i really responding to the op. i'm just seeing a real fear or reluctance - a timidity - all well intentioned but, i think, creatively neutering. all this trigger warning crap - again, well intentioned - flies in the face of the outrageous, the irreverent, and the joyously offensive. in other words the kind of art i like. the special little snowflakes need to grow a pair. how's that for a mixed metaphor?

it's such an odd way to be old and cranky. the old should be criticizing the young for carrying things too far, not for being too timid.

somehow my post managed to conflate all that extrapolating it out of ... pretty much nowhere.
