i can count on one hand the artists i've seen that can draw a convincing punch. #
"I imagine that's because most artist haven't thrown a punch…"-@Bigesta #
reiser show cancelled after only 2 episodes. kinda makes me want to watch it, now. #
i'm not really looking to personally criticize anyone's art, folks. if i was gonna name anyone i'd have done it already. #
"man you stepped in it now, everybody wants to know who is better than they are at drawing punches" -@charliechu #
i heartily disagree with rye, but this is a pretty nice list http://t.co/O61VCCc #
also i love that you guys think i'm literally sitting here with an actual numbered list. #
it is interesting to me that when accused of bad behavior, rather than defend themselves a person will try to incriminate his accuser. #
"Character staring at a faded photograph. SAD MEMORIES! #clichesthatneedtodie quot;-@CharlieChu #
i love that we skipped spring altogether and went from winter to summer in the space of a week. #
sometimes you rent an entire food truck for all of 4 people. #nowhiring #
i know these vents like the back of my chang #
44 days total in europe. tickets are on hold… technical difficulties… #
GAH- why do you taunt me so, NY? how is a man supposed to wear reasonably sized clothes under these conditions?! http://t.co/8YEfKSB #
"Advice for anyone who's personal data was lost by @PlayStation: Buy yourself something nice & say it wasn't you."-@GerryDuggan #
i am deciding right now, with the internet as my witness, that this year, maybe this season, even: i will revisit prose. #
