Well today Facepunch, my mum acknowledges me with something that I found fucking pathetic, £300 for a painting. A fucking picture, FUCK, I could've spent that more wisely. ANYHOW, whats the worst case of something like this happening to you in your family or friends or what ever or even yourself that you regret buying.
so what you're saying is because you're too uncultured to appreciate artwork that it's meaningless to society
Money should not be spent wisely

The irony is that OP's avatar is a parody of a famous painting
art isn't useless, you probably just aren't mature enough to appreciate it.

Who cares, it's just opinion, she might think spending it on expensive graphics card is a real waste. Who cares, it's only money you can't take it with you when you die.
