At first I thought, "oh, cool, they get it." And then, on second thought, I realized, "no, they don't get it." And then I wrote back to the station manager that no, the community didn't need enlightening; it was already enlightened which is why it immediately hammered your station. The issue isn't that the community is unenlightened. It's that Rob and Arnie are unenlightened. To wit, they're unhip. They're dinosaurs. Neanderthals. We don't have to enlighten the community about feminine men, we have to enlighten the community about its epidemic breeding of violence-prone masculine men who prey upon all feminine souls. --Mitz "Femininity is not a crime."
