“Cultivate hatred, it’s your greatest asset”

RIP Malcolm McLaren

You taught me about the Situationists.

You may have saved my life, or, at least, a part of it.

Maybe your later incarnation as a dandified cultural trickster/clown/provacateur/ was less substantial, but that's the nature of the true dandy -- to find the profound in the superficial, to shift shapes while wearing a Saville row suit.

If there is a heaven, I'm sure yours looks like Paris, St. Germain, c. 1962.

Say hi to Sid and Miles for me.
