okay. here's the deal. dudes, the election is OVER. please, please stop emailing me and asking for money. don't you know? it's officially a recession. how do I know? cause all last week when i was driving across the country with hopper arguing about whether the magick markers were cool enough for her road trip or not we defaulted to NPR. and it was ALL recession, recession, recession.
i mean, i realize that the ART WORLD has not been affected by these blaring headlines. and i do appreciate their valiant efforts to keep the poor school kids of the US blissfully unaware of the dark times ahead. (for real. i mean, seriously)
but i am an adult that is only peripherally attached to the art world. and not yet in the position to be making money while burning it, YET.
SO.
that means that i totally do NOT have $25 for a pretty lame, let's be honest, blue knit winter hat.
first: i currently reside in southern california.
second. it's $25. come on. i mean i could get that thing at a 99¢ store for 89¢.
third. limited edition??? really. big deal. does anyone really believe that one day you might find yourself a proud owner of one of the last remaining BARACK OBAMA GENERIC LOGO KNIT HATS. you might have the last remaining one outside of the smithsonian? i doubt that will happen. i mean i know that won't happen.
now. had i gotten an email from the DNC saying they were going to be celebrating the release of the DARK KNIGHT on bluray dvd, that would have piqued my interest. maybe they could have offered a bobblehead barack with shitty JOKER make up on. i would pay donate $ hundreds for that.
and finally. here's another thing. before you assume i am totally down with your "movemement for change" allow me to see some of that movement in action first. so far, while i am not as disappointed as some, i am not totally stoked on some things. don't make my brothers weird libertarian vote seem like a good move.
(please note. most images in this post found using google image searches with the relevant subject + "eat shit". try it. it's fun.)
I would let you slam a pencil up my nose on principle alone.
