B&B:  first-order ironic.  Pre-existing context required.  Subversive 
like a Zen koan.
SP:  higher-order ironic, but often carries its own context.  
Subversion more accessible to masses.

I like 'em both, but (paradoxically) it takes more native intelligence 
to have an ah-ha moment via B&B, IMHO.  Sadly, most of the audience for 
B&B probably didn't really have the lobes to make use of the lessons...

Huh.  huh.
