My ambition here is to start a thread that will be around as long as XPT and/or Ford is, even if that eventually means, down the line several years, one reply every six months as we, say, take note with a mixture of amusement and horror of his latest screw-up (Platinum X/Candy Shop going under, etc.), his latest topless, man-boobed self-portrait, his latest reactionary societal rant, his latest cry for love from Holly. A Duke Floored depreciation thread by another name, if you will. Too ambitious? We shall see. The guy IS a veritable bottomless well of material, after all.

So, what DOES make the Edsel such a self-important, loathsome, stuffy, misguided, mixed-up, screwed-up L7? Let us count the ways. I’ll get the ball rolling with two of the more obviously easy reasons:

1 - He doesn't like PORN fer Crissakes, proudly claiming not to jerk off to the stuff. Holy crap! Can you believe it!?! What is his problem!?!
2 - He openly admits to liking Air Supply. Holy crap! Can you.... well, you get the idea...


OK, next?!?
