Which branch of culture consumption is the eye-roller over? Are we talking about the E!/VH-1/entertainment news brand of entertainment culture specifically or any old cultural group?

I think, Tuomas, that you are missing a salient point here.

Maybe Tuomas has point, though. How safe is safe?

Wiseman and Rohmer are two whose work, especially in subject matter, is removed from fads and easily explained social movements. Unlike Waits, who combines generations of counterculture signifiers.
