broadway @ 82nd

combing your hair with a Metrocard

feels good!

aft-thought on the previous blog-post

maybe i thought it said "the algorithm killed jesus," in which case itd be a billboard placed by the romans and jews (perhaps even pontius pilate himself) in an attempt to exonerate themselves of the execution of christ lord our king, jesus of nazareth.

so many people make billboards these days its really hard to know :(

nazi propaganda or search engine ad?

the first time i saw this ask.com billboard i mistakenly thought it read "the algorithm killed jews." im not sure why as its quite a jump from jeeves to jews but ¡wow! is what i thought in my head out loud. until i got closer. but still when i pass it, i wind up thinking about my original misreading and how this billboard was placed here by the nazis in an effort to escape responsibility years after the holocaust. and wouldnt that just be their style!?! and what a poor excuse for genocide it really is!?! and do the nazis seriously think im that dumb!?!

she said that

my grief,
was her spoon,
feeding her,
her eternity.

falling off buildings was soo much safer in the old days
