Most people you ask hate short films. Why do you think that is? You'll say, "Hey! I got tickets to the short film night!" And they'll say, "Shoooooort film? Oh man." Anyway, what this means is there's never any filler at short film events. It's just the people who don't need to be soothed by the magical Hollywood lullaby just to sit still for 90 minutes.

Art is great! There are 26 reasons to buy it. But it is too oft assumed that people want to be near artists. Not true! Why do you think they invented auctions? So Jeffrey Dietch could gain control of your inheritance? No! Artists can be smelly. Some of them have tattoos. They all really like Slavoj Zizek for some reason, and, given the chance, they'll sell their own arses for $1200.
