The Man With One Name

I was watching regular TV last night, which is unusual because I usually Tivo everything and watch it later, skipping through the commercials. I love Tivo. I had on The Soup, the only thing worth watching on E!, and a commercial for Target comes on featuring Rogan. So I am thinking who or what the fuck is Rogan? The only Rogan I know is Joe Rogan, the hilarious comic and former host of Fear Factor (if you get the chance, check out a rerun of Fear Factor and look at his eyes. Joe has admitted he only did the show for the money and was high during every episode).

So I am able to gleam from the commercial that Rogan is some sort of fashion designer famous enough to go by only one name. I’ve never heard of him, not that I should have. In the commercial we learn that Rogan draws his inspiration from “the shapes and forms in nature.” I take that to mean he looks out the window and makes shit up. We further learn that because Rogan is so inspired by nature that he only uses 100% organic cotton. I’m sure that makes the 12 year old Chinese kids that work 16 hour days in the sweat shop where is clothes are actually made feel much better. An eco-friendly designer so concerned with his slave laborers that he does not want them to handle cotton tainted by pesticides or other chemicals certainly has me intrigued. I feel compelled to go to Target and see his textile masterpieces for myself. Sadly, they will only be available for a limited time.

I’m sure by now you are as intrigued by Rogan as I am. So I Googled him and found this picture of him with Bono.
