I was thinking we could have art appreciation/criticism threads. That is - someone posts a picture (preferrably with name of author, title and date) and we could comment on it. What do you think?
Welcome, O ye culturally deprived! We are Green and Gustav. We will be your guides to the cultural debris of the day: puns too bad to listen to, let alone repeat; cultural kitsch of such glorious, shameless, extravagance as to humble the audacious tar; random acts of cultural carnage and senseless acts of blathering by the congenitally clueless. A guide to cultural atrocities so wonderful that you'll be inspired by the inventiveness of your fellow humans. A page, in other words, devoted to - with apologies to the immortal bard - all the natural cultural flaws and gewgaws that flesh is heir to! A page which can best be appreciated, and contributed to by denizens of - in the words of the late great Spookz- The Sciforums State Home for the Permanently Bewildered. /fairuse
booth on the us constitution via Kucinich..... ...you must admire his unabashed, dweebishly patriotic enthusiasm for what many assume to be the blueprint for American democracy, really an assemblage of Pickwickian axioms insisting, in the grandest tradition of existential absurdity, that the best way to experience freedom is through strict adherence to the claustrophobia of rules, rules that, in this case, were written down more than 220 years ago with a feather and then immediately rendered completely meaningless by myriad ever-present prejudicial hang-ups, the usurping of the government by private corporate oligarchies organized on tyrannical and virulently anti-democratic business principles, and, finally, the perpetuation of gargantuan economic and social disparities among the population.
Fark gustav, give me a break! I've decided to do the grapes tonight and you're tying me in knots. Are you taking up Satyr's mantle? Speak Gustav to me ya wally!
