i sorta wanted to get in on the anti-SOPA/PIPA thing today but it’s obvious this bloog doesn’t have enough traffic to be impactful and i didn’t want to seem like i was just using it as an excuse to be lazy and not post. so then i thought about wearing all-black attire instead, i planned on having that ready specifically for this occasion. but as plans are wont to do, they got waylaid. so here i am posing in one of my rarer ensembles of blindingly light hues.

don’t you hate it when shit just doesn’t turn out right that way?

maybe you’re not aware, but the best place to get Hanes teeshirts is Kmart. so one day while i was on my way to the men’s underwear section i spotted these pants in the children’s department. they’re reversible even, the other side is red with black stripes. i think i paid around $12 for them.

i get complimented on them all the time. i finally got tired of explaining to people that they’re from Kmart kids, so now i just lie and say they’re Gaultier. and then people really love them.

you know those weirdos who persistently mistake kindness for weakness and only become nice when you start to treat them like shit in return?

no? it’s a difficult concept to grasp, i know. but, give it a try on one of those inexplicable perennial assholes in your life, what have you got to lose. works like a charm every time, believe that.
