this is a 4 minute report based on the huge non-critical tongue kiss of a feature over at the minnesota monthly. i always wish these stories would frame the issue in terms of 'business decisions' instead of just 'altruistic awesomeness'. the strategic value of trendy/disposable vs. boring/timeless, that type of thing. is that even a valid analogy? i'll have to check my s.a.t. study guide. also this: can we all just agree those teapots and toasters are ugly and always have been? you know i'm right.
