My Ivory Tower

I have enjoyed living my life in an ivory tower, cut off from most of the negative influences of the world.  My viewing habits, and associations are arranged to avoid foul language, graphic violence  and obscenities. The entire family lives by these standards. It was unavoidable today.  We had a critique of our film editing project.  I was expecting to hear things I wouldn't appreciate.  I wasn't ready for this.  In 3 hours I heard and saw more garbage that in all my adult life before this class. What was the most disturbing thing was the reactions of the other class members.  If it was violent or crude it was funny or wonderful.  If it was clean it wasn't worth commenting on. I want my tower back!
