Music will save us all.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
What a turbulent time, my friends…the Critical Asshole must once again engage in a Mix Tape battle with a travelling companion. I lost the popular vote last time. How could that be? I’m not foolish or arrogant enough to believe that the masses don’t get it right most of the time…or do they?
What makes art “good?”
What is funny is…this isn’t even the creation of art…this is a display of taste…this is the creation of experience. The question truly is: “Can I accentuate the mood?”
I cannot.
I am socially awkward. I am hopelessly inadequate. I am inconsistent. I am at best clever and at worst ambivalent. I have the idealistic weakness of an artist and an arrogant tendency of a kid who grew up in a suburb. I have NO original thought. I am ridiculously insecure. I am losing my hair. I think I might have diabetes.
I suck.
The only thing I like is listening to music…and some times I don’t even like that.
I am an asshole. Please stop reading. Go to class. Go post your online dating profile. Go get tested for syphilis.
Sincerely,
or not sincerely,
The Critical Asshole
