Regarding this little corner of the Internet
Proposition: Ira Glass is a rock star.
Make of it what you will.
I saw Sarah Vowell introduce Ira Glass at a speaking engagement a couple of years ago. In the course of the introduction she made the assertion that Ira Glass is God. While I can appreciate her point of view, and this idea has led to some interesting theological discussions, my own beliefs have led me to undertake a much less faith-based initiative: determining whether the general public accepts the proposition that Ira Glass is a rock star.
In my heart of hearts I know without question that Ira Glass is a rock star, but I'm curious to see how far this realization has spread. The mechanism for discovery is a simple quiz that boils down to one question: when forced to make a choice, will you identify Ira Glass as God, as a rock star, or as something else entirely?
As long as you're here, you might as well do one of the following:
- Take the poll. Is Ira Glass a rock star, or not?
- Check the current results — pretty charts!
- Buy the shirt. The proceeds go to WNYC.
