The Quirk Backlash
Culture Buzz Marc Jacobs gets horrible reviews for his “quirky” fashion show; Atlantic Monthly publishes an article about how we’re all overdosing on quirkiness. Do you feel alienated because you’re the only person you know who finds Flight of the Conchords embarrassingly unfunny and Miranda July cloyingly annoying? You’re not alone. (Which means we anticipate an impending backlash to the quirk backlash.)
