Grayson Bailey
I've put on Feldman for (normie) friends and they've liked it.
For some reason the only stuff my friends don't like when I put on is anything overtly sad, but they're probably right and it's pretty autistic to put on slowcore when hanging out.
My point though: Morton Feldman is chill. Also mellow philosophizing with your friends is chill.

Aaron Rodriguez
I only use the term "normie" for pragmatic reasons because I know where I am and the sort of words Sup Forumstants understand, which is an attitude that also kind of explains why I have friends in the first place.

Brayden Mitchell
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Cuphead. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Cuphead’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Cuphead truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Cuphead’s existential catchphrase “------------” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Jared Moldenhauer’s genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Cuphead tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid.

>fundamentally misunderstanding how CIA infiltration worked the CIA responded to critical praise of abstract expressionism and decided to push it further with covert jacking up of art market prices so people making stuff that was avant garde would move to new york. the actual genre of abstract expressionism is still an important aesthetic movement you dunce
