“Decorative” is sometimes the meanest word you can use in art, a real no-no.

I did the roach stuff to keep decorators, or the kind that buy art to match the furniture or to put over the sofa, away. Although, my art would fit over the sofa because it’s long and thin, so it’s a joke! I don’t know how many people want to hang The Process, the giant, scary one of someone who worships Christ and the devil over their sofa, though. That’s what I like; it might be sofa sized, but not sofa-subject appropriate.”

You’re attitude about the things going on in your life is disgusting. The beauty behind the concept of the blog is that you have every right to say what you feel, and I respect that. I’m not telling you to be any different, or to stop writing. I’m simply expressing how completely ridiculous I find you to be.

Talking the talk vs walking the walk. The latter the measure of a person, the former, an exercise in egotistical justification.
