I heard the 'on acid' thing twice today as a way of describing something that's a bit weird. I don't know why but I just hate it when people say that.
You know the thing I'm talking about: someone says something like "David Lynch. He's like Frank Capra ... on acid!" or "James Ellroy. He's like Mickey Spillaine ... on acid!" or one of the ones I heard today: "the Aphex Twin. He's like Kraftwerk ..." you get the picturte. The annoying thing now is that, the more I think about it writing this post, the more "... on acid" comparisons I keep coming up with. This is madness. |

Odd, odd, odd!!! I was thinking about that term a few days ago, as well as a number of lazy journalistic expressions used to describe music way too often.

I remember Lee and Herring did a pretty funny piss take of the overuse of the "like x...on acid" thing prompted by, I think, someone saying that Lee Evans was like Norman Wisdom...on acid.

These neologisms can go on forever:
Avril Lavinge - Like Toni Basil...on acid.

I like using this one, we used to use it on customers where I used to work... "That guy looks like blank if instead of doing movies/music/etc. he did crack instead."
