I'm not sure why my generation has such terrible taste. Maybe it's our crappy visual landscape... it seems like the last vestiges of the modern era disappeared in the 70's. Luckily tiki people are really welcoming (especially in the northeast!) But you still get your mai tai nazis, exotica snobs, etc. who would rather see the scene die with them than welcome someone who "doesn't quite get it."
