Yes, I guess that would be "a big fucking NO"

I am so in love with this passage from SashaFrereJones.com:

Still, if the social content of punk rock is, in part, a big fucking NO to the shimmery tungsten cage of boredom that appears around us viz corporate transmutation of every border of daily life into some kind of slick product we are free to buy or not to buy, that is the (only) question, then Green Day can't really qualify, now can they?

- Felizitas (aka Joshua Clover) on The 3rd of the Five Propositions, "some thoughts on musical genre." Very enjoyable and smart; don't miss the first two.
