#1. Fake Art

To me, Fake Art is anything mass-produced, ready-to-hang, and/or sold at a Big Box retailer. This is a quintessential irrational hatred that makes me seem smug, so I try to keep it under wraps as much as possible.

Irrational Reasoning:
It's tacky.

Legitimate Reasoning:
To me, Fake Art says to the world, "Yes, I want my home to look nice, but I don't want to put any thought into it or have any personal connection to it."

For the same price as Fake Art made in a factory and sold at the mall, you could easily find something made locally that is unique and full of craftsmanship.
