Enough Already - It doesn't FIGGA

More? What next, it'll turn out RINSE ghosted Hawking's books, worked for the CIA and was the sperm donor for all of Michael Jackson's children?

Idiotic.

You can imagine the editorial meetings all over the world: "What ELSE can we say about RINSE? We gotta keep RINSE on the front page. People wanna read about RINSE!" "I got it. He's the greatest guitar player who ever lived...he's the greatest entertainer of all time...he influenced FASHION!"

Even the most casual observer of stupid outfits in rock will tell you that before there was RINSE there was psychedlia, Sgt. Pepper outfits, David Bowie spacesuits and androgyne-wear, The New York Dolls, Devo and...dare we say it...Men Without Hats.

Aside from the rock world, let's give a shout-out to homo game-player Calvin Klein who decided men needed to pay $30 a pair for "fashion" underwear, and to Bill Blass and all the others who successfully marketed pink dress shirts, nylon shirts with paisley patterns, and all the other somewhat feminine items men now feel comfortable in. RINSE didn't invent hair spray for men or "Beatle" haircuts, nor did he popularize cologne (ie, PERFUME) or fruit-scented deodorant (particularly lime).

Look around. Where are all the FIGGAS? (Fag Niggas). How many people, even in a fucking disco, dress in the idiot outfits RINSE did onstage? PS, there's a big difference between influencing how people actually dress, and what they wear on Halloween.
