Ya, because quantitative > qualitative right?

Oh and post modernism = total BS!

Media like that should always be suggested as supplemental material, I agree. And why would it matter if the major was given a bad name? The old white men had their chance, and all they did was make the subject matter as dull as humanly possibly while still maintaining a a consistent level of intellectual masturbation. If all we're going to do is masturbate and debate smugly, why can't we travel into the realm of light-hearted nonsense?

And don't tell me that we need to keep some things in the objective realm to even express ideas with any meaning, because I'm perfectly happy not talking to any of you and exploring the nature of value all by myself [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
