Yeah, they were funny
Wow, even Freddie Prinz in there - that’s goin’ way back.
Seriously, when I was in college, working for the campus radio station, there was an unspoken rule of thumb - you always tried be creative and to entertain cleanly. If you didn’t, and had to resort to using cheap fallbacks like sex, it meant it was because you had run out of ideas, and was looked down on as a sort of failure to do the job.
So, judging by today’s proliference of porno-culture, it’s pretty obvious that the days of creative writers have passed. But why are people proud of it?
