What is more absurd than an air guitar competition?

The Air Guitar Competition at the Independent? Very educational. From it, one can learn at least the following:

1. Unfortunately, us ladies need to start air guitaring younger because many of us? We suck. But the beauty of sexism and heterosexism is that we still get bigger applause and many many more woopings and hollerings. Even the blonde headbangy rocker spectator in the front row actually got much more attention than most competitors. Yeay for sexism.

2. Blues songs? Although a pleasurable respite, do not belong in U.S. Air Guitar competitions. Which makes my ears and everything else so so so sad.

3. That guy Bjorn Turoque? He's still a tool.

4. Visually speaking, epilepsy and air guitaring are sometimes dangerously close.

5. (I know, this is SO obvious): White boys? They LOVE their air guitar. Wow. It is startling.



But back to the title question: Well, I figured on NOTHING, but then today I came across the following headline under "TOP NEWS"

Top News: Harry Potter Gets His First Kiss

Yep.
