--------------------------------- POSTMODERNISM: THE DRINKING GAME --------------------------------- RULE ONE: If *anyone*, at any *time*, for any *reason*, believes in, supports, or likes a person, place, or idea, it's only because they haven't uncovered the fundamental contradictions underlying it and you are allowed to laugh at them because they are Less Jaded than you. QUALIFICATION ONE: If *everyone* disbelieves in, attacks, or dislikes a person, place, or idea, it's only because they haven't uncovered the fundamental contradictions underlying that disbelief, and you may support that person, place, or idea, *and* you are allowed to laugh at the other players because they are Less Perceptive than you. COROLLARY: anyone who explains the rules is an ANNOYING FUCK. Have a drink. (by hin9@quads.uchicago.edu (T. Rev))
