From: book grump Category: Art Date: 01 December 2006 Time: 08:34 AM Review: Cool people are revolting and loathsome. I bought the evening standard (eugggh) and saw a photo of cool young people doing a funny clever MP3 rave-up in the train station. COOOOL! A ruddy faced Urban Outfitters-clad bunch of spoilt shits with matching audio equipment! Euggh. Then the new Banksy cool-fest with some really cool and clever swipes at Blair and like, bad guys and stuff like SUV's. I will poo all over the Apple Mac shop and muck up the clean glass surfaces. I'm enraged by so many things. But not, I might add, by The Road by Cormac MacCarthy which cheers the book grump right up because it is superb.
