Monet's water lilies are the John Mulaney of art
Unobjectionable and bland and appealing to the lowest common denominator.
If a man tells you Monet is his favorite artist
His favorite food is also probably buttered pasta or plain rice
Also, anyone who tells you Van Gough ate paint probably makes more then seventy-five grand a year
You're not a shitty person because you're from a class of people who like Monet
(or so I tell myself)
You're a shitty person because you never bothered to google
Kent Monkman or Wangechi Mutu or Keith Haring
The other day my friend advised me to invest in a retirement account
I advised him that not only would I never have that much money as a teacher but also
That Boston and New York city will be destroyed by rising sea levels in the next 30 years
And also that I didn't think Monet was "ahead of his time"
Which was probably confusing given that we were talking about the stock market.
When the world is ending and the nastiest thing you can say about your Nazi rapist (former) president is that he's
"like a horse"
Can you explain to me why that's funny?
