10. The Wave<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re from<\/span> the beach, want to be from the beach, or went t<\/span>o a popular poster site and picked the best seller from the ‘fine arts’ category, you probably have this one hanging in your b<\/span>ed room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Katsushika Hokusai’s “The Great Wave at Kanagawa” is considered to be a w<\/span>ork of great aesthetic and spiritual significan<\/span>ce. Apparently it<\/span> al<\/span>so makes surfers appear s<\/span>ensitive. “The wave is like the most beautiful part of nature,” they will say. Well don’t forget about the bro-dodendra, bro.<\/span>

9. The Beatles Abby Road<\/p>\n

Classic album, classic picture. But guess what? 90% of the people under 35, who have this poster, don’t listen to the Beatles. However, by adding this poster to your wall and talking about the significance of Paul not wearing shoes, people will actually think that you have good taste in music. Just don’t forget to hide the Gucci Mane and Ying Yang Twins cds you’ve been listening to all week.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>8. Scarface<\/p>\n

“Say hello to my little friend. His name is played out!” Everyone has seen the movie, everyone has seen the poster, and thanks to MTV cribs, everyone is over it.<\/p>\n

If you have this poster hanging on your wall, you probably listen to a lot of rap music, sell small amounts of marijuana, and think you are a total badass. If that rings a bell, here is a bit of advice. Take down the poster, buy Abby Road, stop selling pot, and read a book.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Girls<\/p>\n

There is nothing wrong with this poster. In fact, it was chosen because…well…it’s pretty hot. It does, however, represent one of the most clich? poster trends of all time. Tasteless pictures of hot chicks wearing next to nothing — or in this case, nothing at all.<\/p>\n

Do you have one of these hanging above your toilette? If so, you were probably thinking: “Man, this is cool. No one has done this.” You were wrong. You actually saw it in a bar last week and were to drunk to remember. And you have now managed lump yourself in with about 40 million other ‘dudes’ between the ages of 15 and 30. Congrats! How exciting.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

6. Mixology<\/p>\n

This poster — an absolute staple in large universities across the U.S. — says one thing and one thing only. ‘I’m a drunk. That’s right. I want everyone who walks into my house to know that I drink way too much alcohol and I’m so proud of that, I’m willing to put a notice right here on the fuckin’ wall.’<\/p>\n

If you are ever at a house with one of these, you may want to inquire as to whether or not your host has any interesting drinks he can make. He doesn’t. There is a case of Bud Light in the fridge, but you can only have one because his roommates paid for it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

5. Dali<\/p>\n

The Metamorphosis of Narcissus. It is a beautiful painting. No doubt about it. And a lot more people would probably have it in their homes if it wasn’t for all those pretentious hippies who have gone and spoiled it for the rest of us.<\/p>\n

I can’t even tell you how many times I have heard someone say that their favorite artist is Dali and then be unable to name their second favorite. Too often, Salvador is the only thing owners of this poster know about art. But they want you to think otherwise. Damn hippies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. The inspirational poster<\/p>\n

This one makes the list because it’s seen in every counselor\/student adviser’s office in the nation. There are a whole serious of them that contain innate dribblings about perseverance, spirituality, and other important life lessons. I’m sorry, if it doesn’t have Michael Jordon on it, I’m just not that inspired.<\/p>\n

These are also popular with the hipster crowd, who will sit around reveling in the irony. Oh the irony! (On a side note: If you are a hipster please click here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Muhammad Ali<\/p>\n

This poster lets everyone know that its owner is tough. He likes real men, who do real manly things. It also lets you know that he saw this poster at his buddies house and copied the idea since he was too drunk to think of anything original.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>2. College<\/p>\n

This is so clich?, words are not even needed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>1. Bob Marley<\/p>\n

I smoke marijuana. Did you know that? Well, if you didn’t, just take a look at this giant Bob Marley poster on my wall and you will know that I do.<\/p>\n

The problem with this poster, is that it’s not about Bob Marley. It is about joe college guy or jane college girl’s affinity for getting way to high every tuesday afternoon. Read the books boys and girls. Leave the reggae alone. It’s not for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
