To paraphrase an old saw:
Good taste is skin deep but tacky goes to the bone

The only thing to "kill" off the current generation of rice will be them getting old enough to realize how silly they look. (Think 40somethings nowadays who shudder when cleaning the old leisure suits out of the closet)
The bad part is that there will always be a new generation to take their place on the Annoying/Obnoxious/Idiotic frontline. To combat this our children must be taught the value of the V8, the strength of functionality and the wisdom of understatement. Thus the battle against stupidity will continue.

Or am I romanticizing it too much
