Duchamp was a boring artist. I don't really like any of his pieces. Everyone seems to go nuts about putting a mustache and beard on Mona Lisa, but it's not like it's something that would never come across anyone's mind. What the big deal about bicycle seats upside down is, I'll never understand, and I can't stand cubism/abstract art either. I've never been a fan of Picasso either.
Really, my interests lie in surrealist art, Dali, Margritte, Escher and such - but at least I can appreciate Monet, Van Gogh [more than most], Seurat etc. but abstract art just doesn't work for me.
I'm rambling. Point is, I'm sorry that your art history professor is retarded and focuses on crappy artists. Maybe the course should be renamed History of Crappy Art?
Ok, so, you haven't heard from me in probably years...bassitenorOctober 5 2006, 05:10:05 UTC
So this is Jacob Botello--someone you knew from high school who you probably don't remember or care to hear from--but you're still on my livejournal list and I had to comment--I think this is the greatest thing i've ever heard. Seriously. You must be SWAMPED with guys (no sarcasm)--I agree and hope that you're well. You're in...New York, or somewhere thereabouts?
I love how everything that isn't just stupid is something that's applicable for all people, not just girls, and should be a no-brainer but apparently somehow isn't.
Ah ha! This is against Nam personally, right? LOL j/k
15. Be a gentleman (hold the door for her). [Every girl loves a guy who is a gentleman] This is ok sometimes......but what do you do when the girl gets to the door first? Should I just always walk behind him? Should I wait? Open the door myself? I have no idea, please someone tell me.
Personally, I've dealt with this one before. If it's a first meeting, trying to impress or just out for a nice evening- walk behind her and as she reaches for the door, grab the door from around her back and pull it open and hold it for her. Otherwise, especially if she's an independent woman, you need not open the door for her, because she'll probably open it for herself. However, it's nice to just do once in a while. : )
Anywho... I don't suppose you're going to have some free time soon to pick up stuff? I've basically thrown everything of yours down in the basement. All except the cinder blocks which are mostly now being used by Gordon and company.

Art history... Sigh, I failed 20th Century Art midterm by writing with blank mind today. ;_; Thanks for reminding me.
