OK then, bye.

Just reading all of this. Amazing!

Interesting. I respect your view John. I'm sure you can still create a very cool world of escapism and tropical delights without the tikis. It will be more challenging but why not? Maybe you can create decorative ideas that none of us thought of simply because we sort of rely on the tikis. Outside the box John. More power to you.

I was conflicted, should I post a thoughtful reply or a critical one?
but I really think I would be wasting my time & energy in this case.

If I can just say no one here would slight you for being culturally sensitive
but the fact that (if you really did build a Tiki Hut) you have already used
traditional South Pacific tribal art in your (Styrofoam) masks etc.
and that makes your reasoning hypocritical, doesn't it.

If I am to take your remarks at face value (despite your Jekyll & Hyde contradictions)
you only seem to half understand Mid Century Tiki, Which you state you don't like
much of anyway, so why are you here? because I find much of what you say insulting
it definitely has the appearance that you are just fucking with us.

So if this is the case I would like to ask you not to waste our time
and find another hobby that you yourself would like better.

Tikis are cool. Jesus and Indian gods are not.

I think jungle fever has set in already.

I naturally think you're a boring fool so I wanted to post something disagreeing with you, but I can't. It sure as heck seems like Jungle John is bipolar and having a manic episode, with his tangential speech, thoughts of persecution, narcissism, etc. just seems straight crazy.

Tiki Centralites are piling on with ad hominum attacks, so I ask the moderator to please just delete this whole thread.

I made the mistake of sincerely voicing my opinions and explaining my transformation of views as I grew and thought about things. Shame on me telling that I changed my mind.

good bye
