This kind of crap would be more convincing and amusing if it weren't obvious, on a moment's consideration, that exactly the same formulaic principles govern the whole "Crackyfag" power-and-status game as govern the power-and-status games based on "knowing poetry" that you people pretend to despise.
People who do actually love poetry, as I do for example, always find ways to apply it and redefine it creatively - which is why we can never be accepted in any hierarchy of power and status.
But there does, of course, exist a huge ugly boring cowardly industry that provides more or less degrading employment for hundreds of thousands, if not millions by now, and that is based on learning certain ossified "culture"-related formulae and permutating them endlessly in a way that gains you the kudos of your "peers" - and academic tenure.
You know the kind of stuff I mean: the stuff that reduces Eliot or Kafka's writing to no more than a lifeless illustration of the point made by Prof. Dr. Soandso in his widely-respected article on soandso blahblah blahblah...
Have you people really not noticed how EXACTLY your wild, crazy, edge-y, unpredictable, iconoclastic, homicidal /b/tard "flights of fancy" about Cracky reproduce this tired, ossified permutation of pseudo-ideas by rote that one finds in university seminar rooms and that you affect to have only contempt for.
It's EXACTLY THE SAME PROCEDURE: "saline bath....blah blah...remove the skin...blah blah....look at me Daddy see how well I've learned all my edge-y dangerous /b/board lessons...see what a GOOD little unpredictable iconoclast and transgressor I am."
