Culture

It seems like most people don't like to learn now a days. I don't really get it. Not only did I go to a museum today to broaden my cultural appreciations, but I watched a documentary last night. That is more learning than most people do in a month for God sake. I dont know about you people but I absolutely love learning new things. I dont know if its the area that I grew up in but it just seems as though the people in my life never really got into that kind of stuff. My friend Justin is literally the only person who will ever do these things with me. Seriously, are museums that bad? I could stare at art for fucking hours on end and enjoy every second of it. I mean actual good art though. Not some stupid shit like this...
That is an original art piece by me. Its that easy and its that shitty. I mean I honestly saw a piece of "art" that was a wooden box with white box inside of it. How long did that take you dude? Five minutes? And then these art enthusiasts will try and defend it which is completely ludacris because its literally something that a gorilla could make and put as much thought into. But stuff like this, which is actually in the Pittsburgh Art Museum, is spectacular. 

I literally stared at that for a solid couple of minutes. But that's actually not where I went today. I went to the Andy Warhol museum in Pittsburgh. His stuff is also spectacular. Anyone who hasn't gone really should make time to go see it. I mean look at this thing. This painting took up an entire wall and I couldn't stop smiling. 
How could you not like that? I guess people don't understand it or something. But like I said, I also don't understand why people don't like watching documentaries. I mean, its about shit in real life. What gets deeper than that? Not some of the stupid ass movies people watch today like Avatar. That shit is so mind numbingly stupid that I can even begin to explain. I know many other people have said it but its literally the plot of Pocahontas on another planet with some bestiality thrown in. God I hate that movie. Do not even get me started on the fact that its the number ONE top grossing movie of all time. That makes me instantly sick to think about. 

But in all seriousness people, get out there and get a little culture in your life. It does wonders for you.

  1. Couldnt agree more on your insight about Avatar. I also seen it in 3D which makes any movie 10x worse
