cabaret of the nameless
One of the most notorious nightclubs in Berlin, Germany during the "decadent" Weimar Republic area of the 1920s. The usual show consisted of short acts, skits, and songs, etc. performed by "amateurs." (i.e, nameless or unknown) In reality the "performers" were almost always mentally or physically handicapped people chosen specifically because they had no actual talent and were presented solely so the audience of tourists and "intellectual" slummers could laugh at them for "entertainment." The diminuative Jewish Master of Ceremonies, Erwin Lowinsky, was the inspiration for the character protrayed famously by Joel Grey in the much toned down stage production, "Cabaret." Also the club was more distantly an inspiration for the equally infamous '70s TV show "The Gong Show."
Come to the Cabaret of the Nameless and leave your decency behind.

NPR-American
A class of US citizen that receives all their news from the National Public Radio, or NPR, and no other sources. See: shit-lib, NPC, or SWPL (white educated liberal bohemian).

This personality is the counterpart of an American who is addicted to Fox News. Both demographics fail to cultivate objective opinions due to a biased media diet. This is to no fault of both groups; it's the result of the USA's piss-poor journalistic standards, ethics and values.
Josie is such a NPR-American, all her political knowledge is from sound bites on her morning commute to work. She has no reason to be so smug.
