I agree it can be rude. But the idea of it being plain rude suggests that
there is nothing much else going for it. This might not be the case. Just
sometimes one has to admit that some rude things have style, class and even
so much so that the upfront rudeness is part of it. Personally, I like rude
where I am forced, after an initial irritation, to laugh or be otherwise
impressed. I would be alarmed and annoyed if a clown burst through my open
front door and did a funny. It would be very rude. But if the act was good
and he pissed off quickly afterwards, I would forgive him.
Bottom line, not "Period". But it better be good and appeal to a fair few
people.
