F.A.Q. #15:

Q: What is your favorite horror movie?

A: If you’re forcing me to pick just one, then I guess I would choose The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The original from 1974. I like it because the killers in it have what you could call a “perverse conservation ethic” which is ironically contrasted against a lawful normie society that runs on an unsustainable consumer system of factory farms, fossil fuels, militarism, and a corrupt and incompetent police state. Leatherface even seems to conserve the souls of his victims by wearing their skins. So, as horrible as they are, Leatherface and his kin do have a system of values that challenges the normie world they are fundamentally at war with . . . and that’s interesting to me. Because the movie didn’t necessarily have to apply itself to such an extent. But it did. And I appreciate that level of effort. I really do.

THE NEW OBVIOUS #32:

If you have nuclear weapons . . . and there is someone in your neighborhood who doesn’t have nuclear weapons but wants to get some . . . and then you-who has nuclear weapons-tries to tell your neighbor that they are not allowed to have nuclear weapons . . . well . . . you-the one with nuclear weapons-have a major credibility issue when trying to boss your neighbor around. 

Something to keep in mind.

DON'T BLAME ME . . . (#6)

. . . for drinking Snapple. Rush Limbaugh told me to drink it. Who am I to question a direct order given by an attention seeking multi-millionaire?

NOTIONAL HEADLINE #171:

“GET IT AWAY FROM ME. GET IT OUT OF MY FACE. I DON’T WANT IT.” TRASH CAN REFUSES TO ACCEPT HEGSETH DUE TO “EXTREME SQUICK RESPONSE” TRIGGERED BY THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE’S DISPLAYS OF “EGREGIOUS INCOMPETENCE AND DISHONESTY.”

. . . TWO WORDS . . .

 . . . SIGH OPS . . .

. . . this is when government propaganda gets, like, super passive aggressive. 

Uncle Sam isn’t pointing at you with a penetrating glower. He’s walking away from you while throwing a sad glance over his shoulder. He’s just leaving the decision up to you. That’s freedom, right?

Lady Liberty’s holding her torch sideways, arms folded, yawning, tapping her foot, and rolling her eyes. She got all dressed up for this, but that’s fine. Have fun doing what you’re doing.

Lincoln’s slouched down in that big chair, scratching his balls, while watching sports at maximum volume on his mobile device, no discernible emotion on his face. No outbursts of frustration or exultation. Just some farts here and there.  

The flags all keep flying themselves sideways. Not upside down, just sideways. That’s all. Just something for you to think about.

Honestly, you would rather they just send the goon squad after you than put up with this bullshit.

YOUR DRAWING PROMPT #67:

Regrets and recriminations of the post-church service parking lot.

FUN YOU CAN HAVE #12:

If you’ve been engaged in pure, unadulterated avarice aided and abetted by a corrupt government that’s in your pocket, then why not dress down, take a walk on the wild side, and try some of that street level not-so-pure, adulterated avarice. It might get good to you.

MANDATORY RULE #15:

All video games must play the audio of the guy saying, “Resident Evil,” in a creepy voice whenever you start.

This I command!
