OQ #31

Two for today.

1. The word X was first used in 1970 to describe an article (The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved, for Scanlan's Monthly) by Hunter S. Thompson, who later popularized the style. The "X fist," characterized by two thumbs and four fingers, was originally used in Hunter S. Thompson's 1970 campaign for sheriff of Aspen, Colorado. It has become a symbol of Thompson and X journalism as a whole. What am I talking about, and what is the significance of this journalistic style?



2. Question contribution: Sticky
Who these be?
