Email inviting me to an art museum ...

Art is Sinfully FUN!

The Blanton Student Guild hosts the first MIX of 2008. The theme is ?The Seven Deadly Sins? so come indulge in live music, great food, fun art activities and docent tours of the museum! Admission is FREE!!!

Uhm, is it just me, or is this the worlds shittiest themed museum party ever? Art is a sin? Should I dress up like Brad Pitt in se7en? Should I wear a fat suit? Should I screw the docent? Paint myself green with envy/jealously? I thought museums were meant to foster creativity, not label it a sin.

Seriously, who comes up with this shit.

Very well known word for museum staff that are familiar with the galleries and artists.

QFT. It is the precise label for a "tour guide" in a museum or art gallery setting.

The English language is a beautiful tool for expression and communication. It has more than twice as many words in it's lexicon as any other language on the face of this earth.

It always amazes me that those who would shake their head sadly at someone who confused a dual core cpu with a core 2 duo cpu as lame and ignorant also sneer at those who use our mother tongue correctly, as if that were elitist. :roll:
