I'm pretty sure Pete Johnson is a fan.

Just kidding, but some of the same demographics overlap a bit.
I think it is the whole "Tattoo, brightly colored, tacky piercings and Hood Rat attitude" thing. One particular trade show I go to in Vegas every year has so much of it around every corner and infesting every nook, cranny and orifice, not only the regular "licensed" stuff but really bad knockoffs. I just laugh at it now, but people buy it, and it is it's own little portion of the economy. I couldn't bring myself to pimp it out like that. Garish Tatoo-ey wanna-be-retro-Gangsta-ish but mostly-never-was art doesn't trip my trigger.
I'm a middle aged white suburban guy with a 90 year old mans cranky attitude, though, so your mileage and Blingy Cool Factor may vary.
