The kid's called YAH-cob, for chrissakes, he was doomed to be either a horrible piano geek with pocket protectors and too short pants, or to be an elitist RETARDED asshole.
I don't even like surrealism, but he clearly doesn't understand art, he thinks that if I don't like something it's means I'm suggesting it's bad, so I had to explain to him that the way of looking at art is "I like this but that is not ugly." ...he spectacularly failed to understand and went off on this whole anti-art thing and another student was like GOD, if it's just about anti-art than why not blow up the museums, you fool! And I was like THANK GOD, SOMEBODY WHO IS A FRESHMAN AND NOT BRAIN DEAD.
