I know, I know.

Here's what the creepiness inspires in me (purpose of art, eh?)

How do we hold those two ideas in our mind at once:

the creepy disgusting Cos and the wise gentle Dr. Huxtable.

the creepy disgusting Cos and his creepy soft drinks.

Pretty fertile ground for creating art. Pretty finger picking over creepy, slightly out of tune string sounds. Lyrics that almost make you empathize with him until you hear his vengeful voice in your left ear. Plotting revenge against the girls that shamed him in his youth.

Pretty creepy!

Yes and further evidence of how hard it is to let go of the stories we tell ourselves. Everyone liked Dr. Huxtable. I guess that's how people get away with what they get away with for so long.

Monsters, hiding in plain site. Reminds me of Twin Peaks.
