I was horribly tempted to respond with, "Pfft, who even thinks that sort of bilge anymore?" and then remembered my life as a semi-professional recluse from pop culture, who has friends that live all over, temperate rainforests and austral coastline and the great frozen northland included. I am not qualified to pass comment on the mass media ouroboros.
