Pioneering Works of Art - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

I'm interested in where the bar is for this term.

South Park is undeniable. They brought swearing to mainstream media - as unimpressive as that may sound, nobody can argue that expanding language isn't epic ****.

If you are bringing up southpark than you need to bring up the entire culture of comedy. It has been freeing our minds from being church peasants for decades now.

It's basically science and comedy that are leading the way to freeing the minds of people from puritan/religious conservatism and beliefs. Any other art coming close to that?

I really think the past few years of Mary Worth have been hitting it out of the park. Is "poker" considered art? It is also very good.

Will have to check out South Park, tia.

Grunching - has anyone mentioned the entire culture of comedy? It's right up there with science as a pioneering work of art. Both have been freeing our minds from being church peasants for decades now imo.

I expended as much effort as I was willing (which wasn't too much) to try to find it, but I fear it has been lost to the ages.

ETA: I think if I could have one misplaced wish that could be fulfilled, it would be the complete restoration of the original mspaint thread.
