no actually that was not an  insult to meg white, she kicks ass... but 
only meg can pull it off in the style of music she contributes to. meg's 
minimalistic style would sound very anemic in kj, and if it were her 
hitting the skins with little drippings of she-schwag.... then even more 
so!  
as for cankels, meg almost makes them look tasty.
