Bruiser - The Cultural Giant 

Ganelon I think he's quite like a Larry David character.

I didn't make that connection but now you've made it for me my mind is blown

@Polite Comments On Current Affairs how often do you manage it ? 😅

Wickerless there's another sketch like "DO YOU SELL POISON"

Georgie Roberts its a quote from the same skit

He literally said "Squidward" 🤣

You need help

Could you? How many hours?

+Cool Guy George Costanza was all I could think about while watching this!

That's a mistake. A 7 year old mistake. Hi.

How are they cruel? They asked him if he liked art, ballet or jazz and he lied and said that he did when really he found it boring and confusing. Shoulda been honest, no point having a go at them.

@@angusmarch1066 my sweet summer child... the world must be beautiful through the lenses of your eyes

@@ingrid9635 yeah it is pretty beautiful and freeing to not be a fake twat, who pretends to like things I dont actually enjoy. I've also found that people tend to like me more, which is by the by, but a nice bonus. And if I am unfamiliar with but interested in something, I can say some shit like "oh no, Im not familiar with that, please tell me more." And they'll explain it to me.

@@angusmarch1066 I get it, but that's not the point...you clearly didn't go to arts school. It's hell there. Everyone is a snob, even trying to outsmart the teachers. Your reputation as an artist starts there, with your networking. Someone like you would be eaten alive. Makes me wish I didn't go lol

@@ingrid9635 lmao fair enough, but they arent at art school, theyre sat in a cafe.

S mooooooooooooth.

Man is pretending he knows about art to impress his cultured friends but they can tell he doesn't know anything. This sort of thing happens often

@@gitman3486 What do you mean? He goes to operas 2-3 times a day.

JunkieKit nice

oprah

I think YOU'VE got Mrs Winfrey confused.

@@hughjones4049 and frankly, what she has to do with baallet, i have no idea

hipsters are nothing new at all, everyone throughout history has found some other people pretentious and tryhard

Not really hipsters. Culture vultures have been the same since time immemorial.

@@Vesnicie I think the first one recorded was called Gorgias, but now I'm being pretentious lol

elitism is not new

He actually doesn’t love jazz. That’s why he called himself a taxi.

I think it's the xylophone being played but he thinks it's the doorbell.

Ahh..Na, i got that..I thought there was something else. I guess it's kinda funny.

You're allowed to question it, sure. But if you're not open to try and understand why these are seen as masterpieces, you're not going to be taken seriously in your questioning of it.

Some modern art is interesting and thought-provoking. Abstract art, however, good lord. It's like the artist is taking the piss from people trying to deeply interpret his/her random smearing of paint on a canvas.

+GMovieSeeker youve sorta misunderstood the idea of abstract art a bit there. if you look at william turner's late watercolour's you can see a formation of the main idea of abstract art coming through. turner starts out painting boats on the water but then takes out the boat and the water. what are you left with? and thats really the point, its just pretty without being bogged down by trying to be anything. for some reason people think that enjoyment of abstract art is some super wanky interpretative thing when really its just pretty colours etc.

...But then the question becomes: what's so special about just some pretty colors on a canvas? Why should anyone pay any money for the effort of the artist making it, let alone thousands and millions of dollars? That's the point. "Well, those are nice colors, but I can paint something like this myself."

you really can't paint those colours yourself. its a massive deception that anybody can paint a Rothko or something. if you see amateurish abstract art you can quite easily tell just from the confused brush strokes and bad choices of colour. keep in mind as well that these paintings are massive too. like there is still the same amount of skill going into an abstract piece thats going into a painting of person or object, just theres no real way to say "oh that doesnt look like a person so its bad" (which is a bad way of looking at art aswell). of course some of the prices are inflated by the fact that these artists are famous and art collectors want to use them as an investment. but they still have quite a lot of value within them just for their skill and technique and beauty. i recommend you look at more abstract art so you understand thats it still has an immense amount of skill put into it

Congrats, you're a normal person.

Congrats, you're American.

Found the non-barlez-enthusiast

@@dansaunders1655 I don't know what the fuck that is. I also watched the first clip in the video and I still don't understand anything that's going on here. Not sure I want to.

@@Lucifronz kek

no. no it's not. it's what a person who looks at art ignorantly thinks of art

Chase *as Fry* unsure if sarcastic or just stupid

That might possibly be the idea.

That's the joke

Yes

It sounds like sample instruments on garage band hahaha

Currently reading your comment and imagining how it would sound in an erratic John Cleese voice, like when he played a wound up Basil Faulty, or his character during the parrot sketch.
