Is It Just Them, Or Is Everything A Lot Shit?
Alan McArthur and Steve Lowe have put together a modern encyclopedia that attacks modern culture. They say their book is "for the large percentage of the population interested in saying NO to the phoney ideas, cretinous people, useless products and doublespeak that increasingly dominate our lives."
They look at the world around them and wonder what’s going on. They knock Loyalty Cards, The British Royal Family, Hip Hotels, Kate Moss, CoolBrands, Che Guevara merchandise, stuff like that, you know the supposedly cool. They wonder why everyone from the builder of your apartment and to your supermarket has to sell you a ‘lifestyle’ rather than just products.
Just some guys with too much time on their minds– or unhappy & uncomfortable about the misguided eternal search for cool?
