You can have the "long tail." I want the "tall neck."

What's the opposite of "The Long Tail"?

Why, "The Tall Neck," of course. And when people get tired of a maze of twisty little works, all obscure, they'll flee the long tail and rush back to the warm, familiar comfort of the tall neck. You'll see.

(As of now, Google doesn't seem to show any usage of "tall neck" to contrast with "long tail", except in the animal kingdom. See [ "tall neck" "long tail" ] or [ "tall neck" ].)
