I'm in love. Publish this stuff and then write more and publish that until you have 'fuck you' money. Then win the super rich most offensive giant yacht contest. This is your destiny.
'a whole buncha statues at intersections' agree that everything sucks!
Rush to your destiny AST. Let's all go sailing, like anon said!
