Is your main way of insulting someone to reference some obscure figure that vaguely reminds you of them in some highly specific negative way? You did it to me twice and now this guy is getting the same treatment. It just seems so meaningless. Nobody cares or wants to know these people, and nobody is impressed that you do. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Luckily architecture is one field where this stuff exists but isn't as much of a dominating force, There are plenty that do attempt it, but I think the reason it hasn't become huge is unfortunately just down to the difficulty of it more than a lack of want. Turns out masturbatory narcissists are usually too lazy to get their most out there ideas past the "what if" stage. If only I couldn't relate to that at all.
