It might be a bit early in the morning for this, but could anyone sum up Situationism in a paragraph for me?

Guy Debord was asked this at the ICA in c.1963 (?): his reply — "I don't to answer such cunt-like questions..."

What a wag!

It's about five times too long an answer for your cuntlike question, but try this. The nothingness site has lots and lots and lots of other situationist junk too.

Situationists = Cheap holiday in other people's misery.

I am inordinately pleased that this thread is the first one in the 'philosophy' category.

I eventually read Greil Marcus's Lipstick Traces, and was surprisingly impressed (not caring for his other books so much).
It answered many of my most cuntish question, and anticipated many more (thoguh not in the cuntish manner of: 'please can you sum in up in a paragraph...')!
