F*cking Art Students

[GrnBay007]

Ty seems to be in "debate mode". I feel bad I haven't been involved in a debate with him....so decided today is the day!!

Ready Ty?


I'll go first....


It is day time.


...ok, your turn Ty.

OK, let’s analyze:

A person fabricates a story about sick and depraved activity.
People respond to that story in the manner that is completely expected.

Because the liar calls herself an “artist” and the activity was a project for an art class, then it is art.

Let’s contrast that with the UW student a couple years ago who seemed to fabricate a story about here own abduction or disappearance. People responded as expected and a search was commenced. When it was discovered that it was fabricated, she was charged criminally.

Too bad she wasn’t an art student so she could have called it “performance art”.

It's hard to argue with people about art. Under the most liberal of definitions, my latest Etch a Sketch masterpiece qualifies.

I think what she did was the performance art equivalent of one of us taking a dump on a Bears helmet, and capturing the moment with a Polaroid. Is it art? Well beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I'm still kinda pissed that part of my college tuition in the 70s went to the WSA in order to create these works of art:

Hadn't noticed...

[Tyrone Bigguns]

Never thought I'd be saying I wasn't proud of the fact that my daughter will be graduating from Yale next month.........but.....
knowing what my daughter has had to got thru to submit her thesis, the constant contact with advisors and professors....what were they thinking????at what point could not one of her advisors had said...'maybe this might not be the best of ideas'................but hey, made the news didn't they?

YOu have it backwards, which is no surprise.

The fact that EDUCATED people, more educated in art than you i'm guessing...listened to her, approved her thesis, guided her...that tells me that it has validity.

Because you don't get it..and apply your standards doesn't mean it isn't valid.

I certainly am not going to list my credentials for being 'art educated'.....suffice to say I probably know more than you do but less than the professors who aprroved her idea for her thesis. As far as my 'standards' ................yes, I do have moral standards.......and they were offended by the fact that a great university, such as Yale, would allow a student to 'pull off' a stunt like this. And that is exactly how I see it....a stunt........nothing more, nothing less.
And Tyrone, I'm not going to argue with you.........because it won't matter what I say.........you are always right, right?

No, i'm not always right...but, you are often wrong.

Credentials: Interesting. Of course you won't list them. And, i find it hilarious that you think your's are better than mine. How so. I think that is the height of arrogance.

Not to mention saying you have morals..which implies others don't. More arrogance.

So, you admit your credentials don't match those of Yale's, yet you impose your value system on theirs. Interesting.

I find it best to leave the judgments to those with the credentials.

I gave formal criteria for performance art. She met those criteria.

Now, if we wanna debate whether it was good or bad performance art that is something completely different.

My son's an art student on a scholarship no less. I knew you'd find that astonishing.

I thought you didn't debate vaginas...?

[Harlan Huckleby]

he's debating you

[MJZiggy]

No he isn't. There's absolutely no debate there...

[Harlan Huckleby]

i was trying to call you a C

I'm just a simple man of simple pleasures

[The Leaper]

George Bush is more EDUCATED than you. So, I expect to never again hear any comments regarding the Iraq war. Bush is more educated than you, so he knows better...correct?

How's that for validity?

Education often doesn't mean shit, Ty. You have to have money to be Ivy League, you don't need brains. GW is proof positive.

It's a publicity stunt. Don't listen to Tyrone's idiotic babbling.
