I wonder when a happy interest in popular culture over-rides, and one becomes dull in the repetition of unchallenging media? And I wonder how far into intellectual snobbery and puritanism am I going here?

Art should speak to us. Art should connect us and nourish us, should add meaning to our lives, not subract it.

Art is possible in a kitschy age, just harder to find.
