those people on the left worked hard to earn ownership of their land..

..a shame about the location..

a little consistency, that’s all

here’s the thing: if you make a simple advertisement,

and it only has two images on it,

and they’re both of the same person,

and they’re supposed to tell a story of two sequential events..

..would it be too difficult to make sure the dude’s wearing the same outfit in both of them?

i never knew prison cells were made of copper plumbing

just because it’s posted above a urinal in a bar doesn’t mean it’s exempt from the rules of the universe (nor the scrutiny of my keen, dart player’s eyes).

also, i’m trying to understand the creative reasoning behind having this guy more dressed up in the jail scene. shirt and tie? is the idea to add more contrast to the environment, thus making it seem more dreadful? more unfortunate? because if they were looking to evoke that, they should’ve just kept him in that dreadfully unfortunate name brand-less polo and ‘member’s only’ jacket from the dui frame.

last night, while walking around sixth street, this all happened. let’s do the math, shall we?..

1 girl x 5 drinks = …

the bull seems void of emotion

(1 friend of girl + envy) x free shot for dancing on the bar = …

and then there were two..

2 friends / ((1 stranger + needs attention) x redbull) = …

they’re multiplying!

and then there’s the guy who operates the bull. showoff.

now what?

ummm, so we don’t need anything else then?

when they say ‘mount cactus’..

they don’t mean jump on something. they mean, ‘hey, look at this crazy huge cactus-tree-mountain-hybrid that’s going to play a major role in the inevitable, real life war-of-the-words-esque invasion of the southwest united states. by the martians. the martians, man. and they’re pretty miffed, ironically, after all of our recent probe landings. and they’ve moved past underground robot seedlings and directly into the market of scientifically engineered little shop of horrors plants.

so that’s what they mean, if you hear someone say it..

i don’t understand what i’m looking at.

some perspective on whatever this thing is that i’m looking at.

some more perspective, even less insight in what this thing is.

awestin – week 1 in review

notnotalot — Wed, 20 Jun 2012 06:36:36 +0000

Hello everyone, welcome to Austin. As you’ll see from the photos, I haven’t done too much in this, my first week as a Texan. Or rather, I haven’t taken too many photos in these seven days. But I’ll make you a deal: you take these without giving me any guff, and I’ll get you some more (interesting) ones soon enough.

When? How dare you!

a wooden foot bridge over some sort of river

i can see the capitol and a tron-lit power plant, can you?

they have sunsets here

a view from the urinals at whole foods, even that’s pretty here
