That picture of Cobain and Love at the start of the video is so lovely, and so heartbreaking.

I always understood the “straight” of “credit in the straight world” to equate with a conventionally respectable lifestyle (“leave your money when you die”), rather than sexuality.
(And yes, I know the words to Hole songs.)

Well, yeah — I was including that in the whole respectability thing. But apparently I missed the joke part.

Go back far enough, like 40 years or so, and “straight” coded as “not freak…”: as in not Hippie, not longhair, econ major not art major, frat not flag-burner, all of the many caricatured binaries of the 1960s, and so encompassing both Notorious’s and H’ann’s usages.
