Come on guys, you have got to face up to it.
It is why having a dozen different random badges is cool.
It is why people will look at you incredulously and not enjoy your company if you keep on at one idea.
It is at the centre of pop.
It is why rock stars are sexually desirable while powerful businessmen are far less so.
It is why monty python and the young ones are funny.
It is why going up to someone and saying 'the sky is purple' with extreme randomness is considered an act of considerable prowess.
It is why band names are as they are.

It is postmodernism, and while it is limited to superficial culture and while I indeed foresee its death, it is silly to dismiss it as alot of people seem to! Well, it makes no difference anyway; you already live by its principles for much of your lives...

The Grand Narrative does not serve, in the West. But things are changing...
