Also wear a cork hat and a knife belt then say, "thats not how you spoon, this is how you spoon"

Yesterday was a decent start to my new route, even with the gatling-like lane assist.

Today is significantly worse. I started my shift at 2am, pre-tripped my truck, fueled it. Usual stuff. Then, when I go upstairs to get my first assignment for the day, I'm told that I will not be using that truck anymore. That I would, in fact, be using different trucks each day this week. Something that no one bothered to mention.

So I wander out to the yard, find the new vehicle, swap all of my stuff to it. It's crap in comparison to the one I drove yesterday, with twice as many miles and a computer that freezes up frequently, plus the fuel tank was near empty, but by this point I was nearly an hour behind schedule and just wanted to get moving.

I somehow got to my first appointment on time, and they even unloaded me quickly...but I have no other assignments. I've been on the clock for nearly 5 hours and ready to go for one of them, and yet my boss is keeping me sitting.

Cork hat? :O
So I've unnoticeably been tired lately, sometimes misspelling words, and sometimes misreading works (like while browsing out daily newspaper, I misread buck as 'back' and the ensuing confusion of wondering 'where's the support in this article o_O' had me re-reading it again)

And I have typos here too that I chose to not edit just to emphasize that :v
Woo, not-knowing-own-status-effects.

It is a hat with corks tied to the brim. Supposedly they ward off flies. Also make you look like a total drongo.

Boots are love. Boots are life. If I could get away with it, I'd have a huge pair of 17th century riding boots.

Today's WTF (well, mild 'Oh, dear'); I see the rat poison fairy has visited the courtyard. The poor buggers likes to curl up and die in the passageway out to the street, where they're difficult to see. Nearly trod on one last night. Scooped him up in a paper bag and gave him a Christian burial in the bio-bin. I'd like to think it's a kind gesture as well as sanitary, maybe the rats will put in a good word for me. It happens now and then, but the rats seems to soldier on anyway.

Seriously. WTF I just watch.

That's what I get just because I googled "jazz hands".

You are poisoned, confused, exhausted, and drained. You are standing in a web. You are regenerating wounds quickly. You are covering ground quickly. You're welcome!

Truly, the art is in the interpretation, and not the object.

Nice try, art critic.

[Solifuge]

Displaying a random piece of anything and saying "There, solve it" is not interesting and, in my opinion, not art. I just turned a mug on my desk upside-down and called it "The Death of Diana Ross". Figure that one out.

The upside down mug is the perversion of order. Though Diana Ross still lives, the inverted mug invokes her death through the clear connection to the minor arcana of cups. Imagine existence beneath the mug: closed off, sweltering, dark, and confusing. The very vision of death, but not just death of the body, the tortuous life-in-death of the Ancient Mariner. This is the fundamental experience of Ross, who attained fame yet still was discriminated against for her skin color and wished dead by many, utterly unable to avoid the living death of a reality mired in racism.

The body lives on, but the spirit is caught, ground by the careless systems of our civilization in pain and death. Horrifying.

Truly, the art is in the interpretation, and not the object.

Kind of exactly this. I've had several Art and Art History instructors say basically this.

All art is an act of intentional communication, from creator to audience. The art object are like the words. The art itself is the meaning the listener (the audience) derives.

That said, flip a mug upside down and give it a nonsense name, and some members of the audience will see what you're intending to say. "Abstract Art is Bullshit". Totally a valid artistic message. Of course, intended meanings don't always come across; you might end up with MSH-style interpretations as well. And oddly, those are valid too. The meaning they create and draw from it is real. (Though I would say it's a miscommunication. If that's how it goes for you more often than not, you're probably not a very good artist.)

Doesn't matter what the artist is trying to say, man, it's what the consumers of the art feel about it that matters.

[pisskop]

I feel like the modern interpretation of art is like that of genitalia; everyones got one and they all think theirs is waaaay more important than it really is.

[NJW2000]

Both are pretty damn important to them, though.
