Well, keep posting because I enjoy them. It is only on popular arts threads that people get accused of “showing off.” You don’t see that on technology threads or weapon threads. Only on threads that start out about movies. It is because in America the arts are held in such low esteem as is a good liberal arts education. How many times have I been attacked by someone with an engineering or technology degree for writing that an art history class should be mandatory??? Art history encapsulates the history of the world but try telling that to someone who writes computer programming?
How true...it's ONLY on threads about movies or paintings or books, that some people "feel" that "opinion" takes pride of place over FACTS; sadly. :-(
