The only way to deal with this kind of insanity is to embrace the absurdity and lampoon the hell out of it.

I wrote a poem for Valentine’s day on Mad Art Lab. Everyone on the back channel was coming up with terrible kidney puns and trying to find things it rhymes with. Then someone said something really heartfelt about how hearts are an impractical token of affection and that kidneys are way better because you could actually give a loved on a kidney. In response to that I wrote a little poem (doing a shitty job finding something that rhymes with “kidney”) and drew a little picture, which i actually like.

The poem goes like this,

When someone says they’ll give you their heart
As a token of love from which they can part

We take it as only a figure of speech
A turn of phrase, or an over sized peach

You may rest assured their affections are strong
But without a heart they wont live very long

And unless you’re a time lord, which I highly doubt
Two hearts leaves you one you can do without

So I put it to you, ladies and gents
If your love is undying and will not relent

Offer an organ you can actually spare
One that works hard, but is somewhat less rare

An organ whose measure is greater than wealth
And when shared can invigorate health

For true love, if we may call it that
Gives of itself and expects nothing back

Such a love may be given, but also rejected
For love is like antibodies and very selective

So if love is something you want to give free
Select as your symbol of love the kidney

I love the Plinkett movie reviews, but I’ve watched them all about 4 times a piece, so I started watching Half in the Bag reviews which I didn’t like nearly as much at first, but now I kind of love them. Obviously it’s all the same people, so that shouldn’t come as a surprise, but it did to me. If I had money I’d throw it at them and walk around like a complete fanboy, decked out in Red Letter Media merch, but alas I am broke. Instead I drew a picture of them, doing their thing.

I’m skeptical about everything.

Just so we’re all on the same page…

A fellow blogger at the Mad Art Lab needed a new avatar.

I recently watched Boardwalk Empire.

This year I wanted to make something special for the holiday season, but in my own Grinchy way. If you are unfamiliar with the Krampus I highly recommend looking him up.
