I've experienced a fairly serious bout of writer's block lately. Granted, it is a totally pretentious illness - and I should know, I only listen to music in which the artist has a one word name, that is a noun. It isn't that I hate any certain types of music more than others. The fact is, I hate all types of music - it is a terrible, diluted art form that's only useful purpose is to divide people into easily definable categories. One-name artists are, for my mind, the only artists worth listening to. I have an Amazing* friend, who argues ferociously for artists with names that have the vowels removed, and sometimes appear as an acronym. This friend and I frequently argue over things. Just the other day, he described a fully grown man as cute. I disagreed.

*he is African.
