It does sound awful in that room for sure (and is lit like an operating theatre), but no worse than Grumpy's, which has an arguably worse atmosphere, being pretty damn Sports-bar looking as well as hard and boomy.
Grumpy's is cool when you can play outside in back, but inside? Please.


Anyone using the word "Imma" has no grounds calling people pretentious for liking art.
I am so sick of people talking about "art fucks;" who do you think designs those cool packages on your rock purchases? I like art, and I like rock. No problem.
A guy with a beard, unkempt hair, demin vest and a PBR is wearing a hipster uniform of another type, but a uniform it is.

Ok, Ok. You win. I don't hold the sort of art you usually see at the Soo gallery in very high regard. Yeah, it's better than some of the other galleries around town (e.g. Density, or that place downtown in the elliot park area, and there are still more, I guess, none come to mind.).

I also didn't say that people were art fucks for simply liking art. What I meant to say is that the people at the Soo last night, and nearly all the people I run into at art showings are pig fuckers.

Argh. This isn't a very cohesive retort. You know what I mean though, right? I mean, you've been there, you've read these people's paragraphs by their work, right?

I think it's funny that you mentioned the PBR, because as soon as they showed up with the stacks of PBR last night, you could read "PBR" on everyone's lips.

I know, I came off like a prick, but Christ you have to admit that in large people take themselves very seriously when they walk in an art gallery.

Fuck.

You want to get a beer sometime, and I can better explain myself?
