See? Hawaiiana has no place here? It's a "Beyond Tiki" topic?

Huh?????

So let me get this straight, should lets say a mug in the form of Ku be discussed in "Beyond Tiki" because the likeness of Ku is a representation of a God the pre missionary Hawaiians worshiped?!? Purely Hawaiiana. And any image, carving, trinket etc. of Ku should then also be shoved into the "Beyond Tiki" forum.

So should topics regarding restaurants, bars, theme parks depicting anything related to Hawaii i.e. hula girls, music, surfing not be aloud because someone has deemed it "not tiki"? Do we really need someone drawing such thin lines here? Jeez, I see posts with pics of '57 Chevy's with a bamboo dashboard and they wanna know how cool is their "tiki" ride and then pages of responses.

C'mon, it's POLYNESIAN pop culture, do the math...
