lerouxI want to strangle everyone in my art history class. Including the instructor.
We have two (2!!!) classes left before the final exam and we have to get through two decades of art history, and people keep having these moronic discussions about how Facebook is watching us and the internet is making us anti-social and you guys, I don't know if you know this, but corporations rule the world. And all three of those topics were brought up by the instructor. Who sounds like the Chicken Lady from Kids in the Hall.
Direct quote from today:
Girl: Uh, I don't understand the stock market? Like, what are they doing in there with all the paper flying around and stuff? And like, who watches them?
Me: Is an art history class really the place to find out how the stock market works?
Girl: Ahaha! No, but really.
And then the teacher was like, "HAHA Mike the Business Student, answer that for us!" and Mike the Business Student was like, "Um, [quick explanation], but about that Art History..."
And then two minutes later Charlie, who I used to have a thing for but NO MORE, CHARLIE, NO MORE, he was like, "OH MAN I JUST HAD THIS THOUGHT ABOUT THE INTERNET!" And I actually banged my head against the desk.
In conclusion, here is what I learned today:
In the nineteen-eighties, there was Reagan, and also photo-text was a really popular genre. Also there were feminists, and they were up to something, but I don't know what exactly because we DIDN'T GET AROUND TO IT.
