Minicap: Work of Art

Work of Art

Hi hi hi, ‘Gasmii!  Are you feeling subversive and edgy and oh-so-punk today?  If you are, then you feel right at home with this week’s challenge on Work of Art! You know I’m not a fan of the enormous mini-cap, but I don’t want to leave you hanging, so here’s a little bit to whet your appetite.

Capture

Bayete has finally left us, thank you so much.  So much.  And now there are eight. That means even teams for a group challenge–four pairs of two artists.  These pairs will work together to create a piece of street art on the corner of a large building at the base of some bridge in Brooklyn. They said the name of it, and I’ll be sure to include it in the main recap. Feel free to show your NYC pride by naming it for me here, though!  (Brooklyn Bridge?  Manhattan Bridge?)

Anyway, as always happens in group challenges, there are interpersonal challenges to overcome. Dusty sure seems like a nice enough guy, a little mopey maybe, but he seems to lack a little pizzazz. Young, his partner for the challenge, is all about pizzazz, in his own preachy way. So they have their work cut out for them. Sara J and Kymia are excited to work together, and they create something I enjoy quite a bit. Sucklord and Loud Generic Sarah collaborate on something kinda boring, and Team Michelle/Lola is a bunch of assholes doing stupid (fun) stuff.

I hate that the winning team won, though I understand why. I just, ugh, hate it.  And I’m sad about who went home.  But I get it. It sure would be nice to send a fun, stupid asshole home next time, though.

Come back this weekend to talk about it all in full, and maybe I’ll make a joke or two!  (And to kill time til then, read my recap of the previous episode!)

About

Time for an update! I used to be a tall, athletic editor who lived on the East coast. Oh, I still am, only now I've gained back all the weight I lost, which changes my life-tone quite a bit. Now that I'm married, I have a lot less time to watch Bravo and Food network. We usually end up watching Big Bang Theory reruns ("all of my friends, all of my friends, all of my friends") or Wipeout. Or WWE Raw. Wow. How life has changed!  Join me as we chat about my breast friend Patti Stanger and her love minions. Or maybe we'll talk about art during Work of Art. Whatever we're watching, don't be shy--tell me what you think!

    They were in a section of Brooklyn called DUMBO, which is the area below the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges.

    I’ve actually heard of it, thanks to my “Selling New York” addiction!

    “I hate that the winning team won,…” OK, I’m with you on that. “…though I understand why.” I don’t…and can’t. They wanted edgy, but ingratiating sentimentality wins. Sigh.

    They installed near the Manhattan Bridge on the Brooklyn side. Not that I recognized it by sight, but they said so. I can’t tell one bridge from another, except for the really distinctive ones, like the Brooklyn Bridge.

    That’s exactly why it won, because it was ingratiating. That’s why I get it–it was pandering and annoying, which is apparently exactly what they want. I made an angry fist-shaking motion at the TV when they won.

    (I know they said so, I just couldn’t remember while writing it during my morning coffee before work!)

    Yeah, I know that I might be biased because my horrible girlcrush on Sara Jimenez just keeps getting more and more out of hand every week, but her and Kymia should have won. I’m all for sending the loud fun asshole home next week, and not the talented asshole. The talentless asshole who someone should really punch in the damn face.

    I’m glad it’s not just me that hated those guys winning. Also, I would love to slap Lola in her stupid face with a tiger penis.

    Lola is such a bitch. I cannot stand her type, she thinks she is so fucking special for no reason other than she’s loud and mean and she’s stuck in 7th grade so she thinks it’s cool. I wish someone on the show would tell her to sit down and shut up.

    I was Sooooo hoping Sucklord’s little crush would go home. Their piece sucked (penises). I mean it was just stoopid. Just 10th grade giggly girl stupid. Ooooh, I know, let’s put penises on it. Heehee! I also wish the other top team would have won. The person that won iritates me to no end. I just want to slap him. I felt bad for his partner. But, I bet he wins DAMNIT!
