Disliking Pollock is irrational. As is disliking Cage. Or Joyce. Or PEZ.

I love 4'33". It helps me get to sleep.

Edit: OMG! Is my humor too subtle people? PEZ!

It was, yes - maybe we need to make emoticons more normal here, since this is a recurring problem. :P

But then how will we signal our sophistication and mutually affirm our status as an intellectual subculture? ;)

Neutral vote. I like the PEZ juxtaposition but 'arational' would fit better. A simply false assertion doesn't fit well with the irony.

As it was mocking bgrah's assertion, and bgrah used "unrational", and in my estimation his meaning was closer to "irrational" than "arational", I used the former. Perhaps using "unrational" would have been better, though.

Just consider it evidence of the level of culture you'll find hereabouts. Savages.
