That's the most functional, brilliant definition of "postmodern" I've ever seen. I am so totally postmodern almost all the time. Kewl. Matt,

Thank you so much. That’s the most functional, brilliant definition of “postmodern” I’ve ever seen. I am so totally postmodern almost all the time. Kewl.

Anyway, to assume "God laughs" is to assume to know the mind of God, which is blasphemy. See you in hell, Regina. Benjamin! Hi! I figured it out. "Antifolk" is folk music with more swearing. "Postmodern" is a word people say when they have no idea what they're viewing, hearing, reading, or saying.

The phrase is mysterious to me--it reveals a paradox inside me. It seems I both think that any God worth her salt must *surely* laugh, and be laughing constantly at the astounding surrounding absurdity, and I *also* think that any God worth her salt must surely be ongoingly exposed to so much pain and horror that she dasn't/couldn't laugh. Hmmmmm. what is the relationship between antifolk and postmodern?
