That chimp in your avatar is drinking Ice Mexican beer, so show some goddam respect.

Neat. I got nothing against Los Mexicanos Frios. Especially if that beer is good.

You realize, I am just ribbing you.

The word "Art" can be taken many ways, and many claims for it being a "fraud" can be made.

For example, a painting of a sunset is not a real sunset.  It is a fraud.
duh, I know that! just like a dollar bill isn't really money, dude. but, automaton's reply to my post still doesn't make any sense, especially if cramulus has interpreted his meaning correctly.

because if we put it all together:
all art is fraud
fraud pisses people off
therefore all art pisses people off

that wasn't at all where I was going when I said I laugh when art makes people mad. however, it's even better than what I had in mind.

btw, F for Fake looks interesting. it's now in my queue.

Haha! Fraud doesn't piss people off if they are the ones being fooled!

Oh, and I agree with you, I think.

This art thingy has gotten out of hand.

Q <-- ART

Lemme break it down. The circle is a symbol of infinity and perfection. The dash protruding from it's side embodies finity, or a glitch in it's perfection: the chaos within order: the rebel in the flock, acting as a thorn in the toe of authority.

Boom. Art. It's not hard. All it takes is a mind for abstraction and a way to portray it.

Which I suppose is the part that makes it art.
