Pretentious bollocksPossibly the worst event I ever went to was an evening of turntablists in London. The lights went down, the first guy put a cymbal onto a turntable, dropped the needle on it and left it making screeching noises for ten minutes.
When the lights came up, half the audience had snuck out.
What's the most pretentious rubbish you've ever been to see in the name of art?

Oh god...There are two kinds of art student here at Kutztown.
1: The kind that wear black and go on about how their life is pain, blah blah blah, and
2: The kind with no higher brain function. Needless to say, I am of this group.
So my very first day in classes, I have Two-Dimensional Design. Lovely, you might say. Sounds like fun.
NEG.
The other students are in a circle in the back of the room, around the teacher's desk. I push through, and what do I see?
There is the teacher, sitting on top of her desk in a Buddha pose, painting her arms and talking about how every line breathes.
I can't beleive I'm paying $20,000 a year to listen to this crap.
