"'Highly imaginative' is a euphemism for 'garbage.'"

That's nice, calling another person's ideas & work "garbage." I'm disappointed that MeTV would publish such harsh comments.

Yes, some of his pleasant comments, taken from the MeTV article:

Quote:

"I'm saying, 'You think it's good? If you think it's good, you're pathetic idiots. This is the worst recycled garbage I've ever had to work with,'" O'Connor said.

"I don't want to do outlandish, highly imaginative things. 'Highly imaginative' is a euphemism for 'garbage.'
