Tiki Trash - Collecting Tiki

But then, someone just joining the board to hawk their wares is just cashing in on a fad. (Which, once again, fits in well with the TRANSPLANTED Tiki theme. Aiiigh! It's all so post-modern!) Actually, I consider the high/low culture thing to be a false distinction. There is a difference between the two, but it's more in the use things are put to, not some classist hooey.
