“I don't appreciate it when women - or men - bandy about these stupid stereotypes about feminism that are age-old, and that are meant to keep people turned off from it. It's like, "All you have to do is Wikipedia feminism to know that it's not about man-hating - so shut up." That makes me annoyed.” PeopleKnowsMenAgeHateFeminismStupidAppreciateShut UpStereotypeAnnoyedWikipediaTurned OffMan Hating Author:Kathleen Hanna
“I did a lot of bad stuff from the age of 18 to 21. Those are days when everyone is usually in college doing a lot of stupid things. But since I was playing baseball, I was in the spotlight.

“[Diego Luna Cassian] quite a smartass, and I really appreciate smartasses. He used to make fun of me for the stupid backpack I wore. There were a few situations where I couldn't [wear the stilts].

“I like art that challenges you and makes a lot of people angry because they don't get it. Because they refuse to look at it properly. Rather than open their mind to the possibility of seeing something, they just resist. A lot of people think contemporary art makes them feel stupid. Because they are stupid. They're right. If you have contempt about contemporary art, you are stupid. You can be the most uneducated person in the world and completely appreciate contemporary art, because you see the rebellion. You see that it's trying to change things.” PeopleThinkingWorldTryingMindArtChallengesStupidPossibilityArt IsAppreciateRebellionContemptUneducatedTrying To Change Author:John Waters
“Literary fiction and poetry are real marginalized right now. There's a fallacy that some of my friends sometimes fall into, the ol' "The audience is stupid. The audience only wants to go this deep. Poor us, we're marginalized because of TV, the great hypnotic blah, blah." You can sit around and have these pity parties for yourself. Of course this is bullshit. If an art form is marginalized it's because it's not speaking to people. One possible reason is that the people it's speaking to have become too stupid to appreciate it. That seems a little easy to me.” PeopleIfsWantWritingLittlesArtRealSometimesReasonSeemsFormFallCoursesEasyPoorPartyFictionAudienceStupidTvsRight NowMy FriendsAppreciatePityBullshitFallacyMarginalizedBlahHypnoticPity Party Author:David Foster Wallace
