Art has wasted countless hours of my time, especially the most valuable early years. There's nothing interesting about haiku, yet I was forced to do it anyhow.
I've got an engineering mind, so my perspective is that form should follow function. Furthermore, the functionality of the world depends on engineering, not art. For example, if a vehicle works well but looks terrible, it serves the function of transport, but if a vehicle looks awesome but doesn't work, it's useless.
Then there's the fact that 99% of art is boring and not good. If someone painted the Mona Lisa and gave it to me as a gift, I'd thank that person and then store it along with other papers I'm never going to look at again... and that's the best of art. The best of art is junk I'd never want to look at again.
I managed to have some school art project featured in the Bush Park art exhibit every year. It was almost always some clay piece. If I'm being forced to "be creative", clay is more interesting (which probably explains why the video appeals to me despite my disdain for art).
The listening is the entertaining part, because comedy relies heavily on delivery.
