"Red Square. A Painterly Representation of a Peasant Woman in Two Dimensions"

I looked at it for ages. Nope, no peasant women.

I went to the Tate Modern once and the person I was with stood there looking at a huge canvas painted blue and was spouting all sorts of nonsense about it

There was a piece of coiled rope dumped on the floor and it was supposed to represent the randomness and unpredictability of nature

[Ashberto]

They all got liquidated. :cooper:

[Monty91]

Oh, sorry, that's your mum.

I may have got his name wrong but the crazy man who did that scream *******s.

Trying to impress this arty bird I wanted to shag a lot. She had travelled down from somewhere reasonably northern for the event, met her at Euston. Smoked 2-3 pipes on my way to try and see me through the boredom, ended up not saying a single word to said arty bird for about 2 hours. Lots of staring at paintings from various angles.

Not the best date ever.

they'd laugh me out of the building.

Though I did think of doing a **** diary once. take a photo of 1 months worth of dumps each day and compare it.

Must be artistic. It's do with the daily mundane routine of **** that is life. or something.

Or did she make you Munch?

Actually, that one's quite good...

f**king disaster it was.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It does tend towards dryness even by art gallery standards.

Pipes? Crack or crystal meth?

It was a saturday afternoon ffs.

[Peter]

Why on earth did you do that?

[Ashberto]

Do a dump on a plate and put it in the middle of a room, it's a dump on a plate in the middle of a room.

However, some pretentious prat with an arts degree and the right contacts does it and it's suddenly Just Like, OMG, So Amazing.

[Monty91]

her mates, which as you can imagine I was overjoyed about.

I proceeded to get absolutely battered and knocked a table of drinks over. Then I basically forced her to let me come back to hers where I, ahem, possibly pushed the boundaries between coercion and full blown rape :-|

All of it or just the evening bit?

The former I have explained, the latter was desperation for some normal company and a feed of pints probably.

She's lucky the boys weren't heading to the Gresham that night.

Is there actually some people who say ok this year all t-shirts will have new york on them.

Mind you, I'm grateful to whoever decided that women should be wearing leather jackets this year. Women look great in leather jackets imo.
