The pop-culture pictures are part of a parody of the song "Monster Mash" called "Modernist Mash," which is rather brilliant, leaving aside the question about whether these things should be joked about.
But I wouldn't say that thread strikes me as inappropriate and immature as a Fisheaters thread by any stretch of the imagination. The guy doing the parody is not defending vile pop culture artifacts like "Kick Ass," like that FishEaters guy, but using them to show the degradation of the Novus Ordo, comparing it to Animal House, as a theologically orgiastic pagan mess, which it is.
Raoul, no doubt the immaturity at AQ is properly directed at the libs. Thus, AQ is not as pathetically worldly and liberal as FE, I agree.
The problem is that the example thread I posted is endemic to AQ. Often one cannot get a serious discussion going without the resident clowns, a lot of them mods, posting their "brilliant" jokes, leading to more jokes, turning a once promising thread into amateur hour at the AQ comedy club.
Also, even though most of the Queeners are not flaming modernists/ worldings/ feminists/ Neo-Caths like FE, if you so much as utter a peep the mods even perceive as something they don't like, you get knee-jerk perma-banned. I've seen it happen many times there to good solid posters. Now that they have banned all registration, I suppose they will winnow down the remaining members until all that is left is a lock-step unquestioning legion of sycophants who can write good mocking lyrics in the dialect of Hans Kung.
Thus, obviously, CI is head and shoulders above both of them.
