There was this really awesome industrial (as in EN style, not NIN style) band in Seattle in the late '80s to early '90s called the Metaphonics, and they had this hilarious song called, "I don't know what I like, but I know what art is!"
For some tangential reason, your post reminded me of that (though I'm going even further off topic now...)
