As well as the pure imaginative chaos they evoke, I like that they come across as thoughtful without seeming either to exploit or glorify the real favelas.

You want to live there, don’t you?! We might have to meet in the middle on that one.
1. Those are great
2. I want to start a band called Shantytown Simulacra
3. Scratch that; the band will be called The Bryan Tradup Experience, and the first *album* will be called Shantytown Simulacra
The snarkmatrix awaits you
