Our patron saint, Oscar Wilde, has kindly agreed to answer a few of our more commonly posed queries.

Q: Isn't WAG wicked and venal?
A: Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attractiveness of others.

Q: Are you guys trying to suggest the Web needs to be more organic or something?
A: A really well-made buttonhole is the only link between Art and Nature.

Q: Are you guys for real?
A: If one tells the truth, one is sure, sooner or later, to be found out.

Q: Would you even realize it if you were real?
A: Only the shallow know themselves.

Q: I was wondering if you always knew what was about to—
A: To be premature is to be perfect.

Q: Isn't everything you're advancing here fundamentally immoral?
A: Any preoccupation with ideas of what is right or wrong in conduct shows an arrested intellectual development.

Q: Why do you guys always wear those silly yellow suits?
A: One should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art.

Q: Don't you put too much stock in your appearance?
A: If the poor only had profiles there would be no difficulty in solving the problem of poverty.

Q: Sometimes your magazine can be a little obscure. Is that intended?
A: Only the great masters of style ever succeed in being obscure.

Q: You also seem to contradict yourselves an awful lot. Have you ever noticed that?
A: The well-bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves.

Q: If the present era is the Age of Information, what does your site offer me today?
A: It is a very sad thing that nowadays there is so little useless information.

Q: Isn't useless information precisely what we need less of? How about talking about something that actually happened and has some weight in the world?
A: Nothing that actually occurs is of the smallest importance.

Q: Your brand of hedonism seems to lead to nothing but mindless pleasure-seeking. Isn't that a bad message to give to our youth today?
A: Pleasure is the only thing one should live for. Nothing ages like happiness.

Q: You guys are so superficial. Don't you think—
A: It is only the superficial qualities that last. Man's deeper nature is soon found out.

Q: Why do you run reviews for books that are more than a hundred years old?
A: In old days books were written by men of letters and read by the public. Nowadays books are written by the public and read by nobody.

Q: I would like to join the WAG Fan Club. Is that okay with you guys?
A: Even the disciple has his uses. He stands behind one's throne, and at the moment of one's triumph whispers in one's ear that, after all, one is immortal.
