Someone who habitually �devours� lots of culture. People who frequently go to concerts, plays, gallery openings, art workshops etc. as well as avid art collectors (including people having large book and or record collections) are called cultrivorous. (-vorous as in herbivorous/carnivorous)
In recent years, as the world becomes �smaller� thanks to internet, travel etc., the term is also used for those hungering to learn about different cultures. |

Speaking about culture, a cultrivorous is a person who feeds with alphabet soup. This diet is very good to increase knowledge without reading books or going to class.

If
nectarivorous is the adjective used to describe a bird that feeds on nectar
then
cultrivorous must surely be the adjective used to describe people that feed on cults |

Well, this is a very strange cult devoted to a modern tool by crazy men : a cultrivorous is fond of the CULT to the RIVets (particularly the steel ones) devoted to make the skyscrapers � god OROUS. I swear I read it in "The Curious Cults Celebrated by the Skyscrapers Lovers" ! A very interesting book on the different types of madness linked with the vertigo felt on the very top of the skyscrapers. |
