Call me an anti-semite but I hate an empty wall. Nothing but paint and shadows; reminding me that I better not tape or tack anything to it otherwise I might not get my security deposit back. Well fuck that, in the words of my co-blogger A. Hanley as we carried 24 Buffalo Wild Wings into my apartment, "We're already fucked." I think my landlord's going to notice that my carpet is now 50% beer, whisky, vomit, and tears before he notices a nail in the wall.
Seriously you guys: the poster sale is top-notch this year. There are three new prints of Bob Marley. One where he's looking up to heaven surrounded by mist and the words, "One Love." Another where he's in a reggae hat smoking a joint WHILE smiling. And finally, one where there are three little birds sitting outside his window.
And if Bob M. aint your thing, there's a new Bob D. poster. Now, my co-blogger A. Hanley has a very fine poster of the man with the quotation, "I accept chaos, but I don't know if chaos accepts me." And that's all well and good, but A. Han might be tempted to dump the zero and get with a hero this year at the poster sale because there is a new print with the quotation, "Come in, she said, I'll give ya shelter from the storm."
But don't worry, even if you're a complete tool there are plenty of posters for you! For example, whoever said 4 Scarface posters are 4 too many? Get yourself another! And for the real hip hop fans out there, how about a Lil' Wayne close up?Cooliooolio!
So anyway, just get yourself down to the poster sale. After all, they're not just posters, they're freedom markers: middle fingers to Landlords and Landladies everywhere. KEEP THE CHANGE, MOTHER FUCKERS.
