“Spike Lee was weird.”
A few days ago a business acquaintance of mine relayed this information about Lee; they’d lived in the same dorm while attending Clark Atlanta University.
He described Lee as a lanky, geekish type. Apparently Spike’s name was the only cool thing about him.
It got me thinking.
What is ‘weird?’
Who determines what is or is not ‘weird?’
What formula causes people to get out the ‘you’re weird’ stamp of mild disapproval?
