25. GREAT POST
i 'know' these guys too. The Brooks Brothers. you can't not do business in nashville without doing business with 'these guys.' they send their kids to elite private schools (that offer lacrosse) and piss on the local system. they have law degrees or finance degrees or law degrees. :) they have no sense of personal greatest that doesn't involve a party invite. they are beyond money. they don't worry about money. they collect people. attend the swan ball. golf at belle meade.

what's worse than the brooks bros types? the brooks bros WANNABES. I've been sandwiched in between these two social groups since i came to nashville. Vandy, btw. and it's not like i haven't worked at the 'alt weeky.' i have and take that FWIW. it was the paper here in nashville that built the money deal that bought the village voice and LA weekly.

here's the thing about the Wannabees -- they have no ideology. they snuggle up to these lizards only for the thrill. neither group has 'religion.' neither group has alleigence. it's all a state of nature.

'boorish' behavior -- Duke has been after these guys for 'boorish' behavior for a year now. that's a euphemism for The New American Psycho.
