People who hate on modern art are either too stupid to understand it or afraid of it.

Like you don't have to like or love it, but imagine saying it's not art...

The thing that i happily hate on is the art world's reverence for it. Half the time modern art pieces are mocking that specifically.

It's like someone says something is only profitable because it's unethical then the other person does it because they heard it's profitable. Often quite literally wrt modern art.

Anyways, these urinals would be much funnier if they were installed in the restrooms splashing half the patron's piss back on them.
