Call me sour and dour. But I regard the video clip below as boorish, bordering on irresponsible, except for the Daily Show host’s hilarious opening joke at the expense of Boston College’s Pollock Matters show, which did make me guffaw. I was not amused, though, by the slashing of a “Pollock” or the licking of a “van Gogh.” But maybe I just don’t get it because I’m the artsy-fartsy type whom they’re satirizing. Your call:
UPDATE: The New York Observer didn’t call me “sour” or “dour.” It called me “quaint” (as in, “old-fashioned”?).
