I feel like museums should get a pass on this one.
But along these lines, I’m SO over “bespoke.”
10 years ago I learnt that southern New Zealand slang uses bespoke or custom as an indicator of poor quality. Someone shittly welded a tow ball onto their car, that's a 'custom job'.
Your poorly assembled second hand IKEA bookshelf that's falling apart and well fucked? A bespoke piece of furniture.
Those words have never bothered me since. Thanks kiwis.
It's never a mistake, it's performance art.
Theres a hairdressers near me that is "Bespoke hair artistry" or some other pretentious bullshit.
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Its not as bad as the overpriced clothing store "Bazaar Boutique Emporium"
Which is basically all white linen clothing.
