Henry Darger, Camille Paglia, the Boyle Street puppets, extra sassy fat girls and working class artists.
I tend to like people who have little tolerance for bullshit. Having said that, I also love a wordsmith who can spin a fascinating yarn about a trip to the grocery store. Actually bullshitters are magnificent.
