The pollluted sublime. Pockets of the sublime. The sublime as haunting. The sublime as antechamber. The powerless or disconnected sublime. The sublime immanent in its opposite (gnostic sublime). Beatification & the anti-sublime: Visions of Johanna. The absent or absurd sublime. The ironic counter-sublime. The failed sublime. The lost or misplaced sublime. Jouissance & the carnal sublime. The sublime of the commodified, or spectacular sublime. Intellectual branding & the cosmological sublime. The sublime will eat itself. Lists of unsublime objects presented as being in some overall way sublime (the rhetorical sublime). The toon sublime. Light slowly peels the surface of things. The Indian Ocean.

The clichéd sublime (being in such a state of desperation to be the first to respond wittily to a post about the sublime that one willingly opts for the clichéd use of the word ‘clichéd’ and then immediately feels that this has to be actually explained within the body of the response in order to maintain the delusion of having retained some shred of intellectual integrity in the process).
Ah – the sublime molds.
I misread this as ‘mad boy’. It’s good that way too
