Vapid is the new black

Vapid is the new black

I was not sure which recent magazine cover grossed me out the most, Kim Kardashian in sailor drag, showing off her only, but ample assets, or the sculpted cow made of fresh hamburger meat extolling the virtues of a $30 hamburger in NYC.

Both say a lot about the current state of American culture – selling meat, albeit different packaging.
