 * "why can't I marry a 12 year old?" - Piero Scaruffi

Piero "Crazy Legs" Scaruffi is a legendary Italian-American hiker, historian, philosopher, poet, scientist, and art critic. He runs a website containing his music reviews, poetry, photography, and writings about various subjects. He is likely smarter than you about all all things because he has more PhD's and has fucked more bitches than you ever will. He is by many considered a "master patrician" with undeniable taste such as Korn, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, Aqua, Animal Collective and Xiu Xiu. He is also a prominent leader in the anti-web 2.0 movement. While visiting his site, you may think to yourself that the site hasn't been updated since the late '90s, which is still unknown to this day. He is believed to be sexually attracted to 12 year old girls.

The fact that so many music enthusiasts still name the Piero Scaruffi "the greatest or most significant or most influential" music critic ever only tells you how far music criticism still is from becoming a serious form of journalism. Movie fans have long recognized that the greatest film critics of all times are Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Music fans are still blinded by commercial success: Scaruffi attracted more internet traffic than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore he must have been the greatest. Movie fans grow up listening to and reading a lot of movie citicism of the past, Book lovers grow up reading a lot of book reviews of the past. Music fans are often totally ignorant of the music critics of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that Piero Scaruffi did anything worth of being saved.
