why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

Mothboy must at least be given the chance to have a normal childhood

As far as I can see, the USA indoctrinates kids to harbor grandiose dreams of fame and fortune in imaginary artistic careers and generally overinflates their sense of their own talent.

Aimless OTM. This leads later to at best, a jaded distrust in all hopes and dreams, or at worst - crippling depression and inability to cope within society.

Keep clipping those wings, 50s parents, you had the right idea after all...

the scissors tho u r not holding them at the correct angle

youll maybe clip off a tiny bit of wing that way

dad's murderous look indicates he might be holding the scissors so as to cut off boy's head and not wings

O_O

i think it's good to encourage kids' creativity. no sense adapting our personalities to capitalism even if we do need to adapt our careers that way.

i agree basically - if there's a problem - i don't think there's really a problem - it's about encouraging aspirations which are attuned to the sickest fantasies of capitalist society rather than encouraging fantasy in itself - fuck dealing with the hegemonic version of reality

Don't look so sad, kid. Those wings were useless except as decoration anyway. And it would be hell to find clothes that fit you.

having wings like that would just encourage destructive fantasies of masked vigilantism.

but he could FLY TO SCHOOL that would be rad

His body would have to shrink considerably if those sized wings were ever going to get him so much as an inch off the ground.

i wonder if he would get more or less OK Cupid messages as an adult with those wings

You should NOT message me if...your wingspan is less than 6'0''. Sorry guys... nothing personal but I just do not go for chickadees. Bonus points if you have tailfeathers too...or can shake it like you got em ;)

That one friend with the high-school bad-girl regret macros occasionally posts things like this:

decided to be unapologetically himself, i heard

“How would your life be different if…You stopped making negative judgmental assumptions about people you encounter? Let today be the day…You look for the good in everyone you meet and respect their journey.”
― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

Yeah quit being judgmental and respect Steve's journey.

The day they took that photo, John Lennon had been tripping on pure grade LSD for 300 days in a row. In that photo he just noticed a giant purple paramecium floating through the wall.

yeah but which bee?

the bee that rests upon a leaf in the cosmos, staring down at tiny earth

which man then

I must bee strong, and carry on

maybe the man is Albert Einstein?

Albert Einstein was a bit out of his area of expertise there.

if e=m (b x b), then yeah, we're all dead.

bee-lack holes?

Also wish I knew how to make a superscript 2.

I'm trolling (in the fishing sense) through this guy's page. He's an old guy up on the ridge who puts up at least one macro a day.

They all look like this:

It took me a second to figure out what was going on. On my first computer, when I'd make photo edits within whatever was Mac Paint, they'd have those letterboxes at the top too. But this guy, this guy, he's taking a screenshot of his iPhone and then posting that to his page.

Oldies. They're funny, aren't they? Check out some more of his humor.
