I think her negativity is childish and her perception of herself is dishonest and I see inconsistencies all over her. It really seems like she would go so far as to deny the fact that she is a human to support something ridiculous she believes in and a lot of the time it seems as though that is exactly what she is doing.

I am really quite surprised to see that I am the minority on this one. Quite interesting actually.
Maybe you need to stop projecting your fantasies about how so and so would behave and instead learn about their individual personality. It's like Bob mentioned, that was classic Lydia Lunch. What were you expecting? Cuddling with Nardwuar on the couch, maybe reading a little poetry while softly talking about her hopes and dreams?

Fact is, a lot of musicians / artists / creative people are not nice or fun to be around, hell most of them are a-holes. Especially old school punks.
