[Frumple]

Today's six o'clock (well, ten 'till) wake up call was the dream equivalent of a time lapse video of someone taking a nap in the woods, and having their face and upper shoulder area covered by an ever expanding ball of ~fist sized beetles of varying colors. Dream ended somewhere around the point there was something like three dozen beetles just kinda' chilling on some dude's head. Also distinctly remember the words, "Sleep through several pounds of woodlice" and the most amazing scorpion fight pun.

Namely, the screen (?) displayed the words "Scorpion Fight" and a dude walked in carrying a downsized siege weapon (maybe about the size of one of those smaller old black and white TVs? Lil'bigger than a human head.). The perhaps oddest thing is it was actually a fairly decent example of a scorpion, despite me not having seen an example of one of those things in probably half a decade.

People need to realise that a lot of contemporary art is about trolling people and the artsy scene. You'd think the internet generations out of all people would appreciate that, but apparently they're just constantly taking the bait and jumping on hate trains.

I don't see how realizing it's a load of bullshit means it's any better. Unlike trolls, the scene as it is is actively encouraged by people with more snobbishness than brains and, as it is in this particular case, being put in authority positions over people who just want to study their goddamn drama.

lol no

Sssso, what you're telling me is that people who pay jillions of dollars for them do it for teh lulz?

[scriver]

No I am saying trolls are all snobbishness and no brains.

edit: The one's paying loads of money for bullshit isn't the the ones doing the trolling in this situation. Unless you count the usual rich-people-spending-bullshit-amounts-on-bullshit-just-to-show-that-they're-richer-than-you as trolling.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Meaning that they still have more snobbishness than brains.

[scriver]

I probably should have bolded the "unlike trolls" part.

Also see edit above.

Flailing around in roller-skates, an oversized Bambi costume, and her own urine,

Why would anyone think this was a good way to describe their performance? Also in the preview thing I'm pretty sure she expels a plastic bambi toy from her vagina at one point.
Art?

Sure. But not the kind they think it is. I maintain that fetish porn is art, and that's what this is.

So... no, you couldn't find a racist policy.

While racism may be just the UKIP culture rather than policy, they are officially climate change deniers.
I quote:

We do not however regard CO₂ as a pollutant.

[TD1]

Meh. Climate change isn't exactly certain, and besides, so believing is hardly an ethical issue such as racism. Doesn't make them a bad spoopy doopy party that incites hatred such as everyone is trying to say... with absolutely no base at all.

It is hilarious the amount of effort people have gone to in order to turn public opinion away from them. Such as Left Foot Forward and co.

[Graknorke]

But it does make them a party I want kept far away from being in government. I mean, so does them wanting to leave the EU but that's hardly worth talking about.

[Dutchling]

Climate change isn't exactly certain

I don't think you know what any of those words mean.

[Arx]

Meh. Climate change isn't exactly certain, and besides, so believing is hardly an ethical issue such as racism.

Here. Edit: and here too.

And incidentally, I'm inclined to say it's exactly an ethical issue like racism. It's just a case of whether [ethnic group] should suffer or the whole planet should suffer.
