"Once everything is Tiki, then nothing is." You may quote me.

Without borders then there's just no specifics. TIKI is an historic mid-century movement and therefore a whole encapsulation of ideas, dreams, happy escapism and associated items. I make no apologies for being a purist when it comes down to my obsession and collection. I WANT to enjoy the movement as it WAS, and as the many lovers of it try to re-create. There are now, just as there were back then many things that are NOT Tiki! GET OVER IT!

Sure parts of Tiki can NOW be denigrated by the current "everything is offensive" movement, but don't try to change it, don't try to tack on your own fantasies and then demand everybody accept it .....OR ELSE!!!. (An all too common dictate now.) Go start your own damn genre.
