Art Speak
I can't think of anything that irritates me as much as "art speak." A couple of years ago, I put one of my paintings in an art show. I was standing beside it at the opening and watched a woman lead a small group down the row of paintings as she lectured them.
I wasn't paying much attention until she stopped in front of my painting and proceeded to lecture her small group of devout followers about my particular work. After she moved on I dove for paper and pencil and wrote down what she said as nearly as I could recollect it
