This is somewhat tenuously connected to our discussion. Okay, so over the  
weekend, I spotted a picture of one of a current teen pop sensation (no, not 
 Lady Gaga) wearing a t-shirt with the VOID insignia on it (Void, for those 
of  you who don't know, were a crucial D.C. hardcore band in the early 
90s).  I was deeply incredulous that a whistleheaded pop irritant like _____ 
dared  sully Void's good name with her vileness. Upon sharing this revelation 
with a  colleague this morning, he answered: "Dude, check out her MySpace 
page ... she  likes good music." I find it imposible to believe that a child 
capable of  making such awful pop would be fan of decent music, but check out 
her list of  "influences" and see if you can guess who I'm talking about:
