You can imagine. We don't care about your fashion sense because we have already experienced just about every corporate fashion trend foisted upon us. We don't give a shit about your music because, back in the day, it was not all corporate drivil. Nothing you can do on corporate media surprises us. It may annoy us and it seems that the only reason this crap is on the air is to schok and offend but we have already gotton over the bullshit! Try something stimulating like an actual discussion of the issues. That would be different!
