In reply to this ATMB OP:

I replied:

Then I realized the appropriate response was:

[QUOTE=Cheshire Human, in his imagination]

Actually, I think I have a better one:

  1. See people complain about “Hi, Opal”, “Bye, Opal”, etc.
  2. Come up with cheap and easy to make ‘artistic’ trinkets, that can be made with a ‘Hi, Opal!’ theme.
  3. Identify suckers willing to buy them as ‘mementos’ of Opal, and sell them to said suckers.
  4. PROFIT!!!

It wouldn’t have gone over well in the ATMB thread. Let’s sell the trinkets, here in the pit. That’s about what her ‘art’ was worth.

Oh, this will go well. :rolleyes:

It’s going swimmingly so far…

I don’t get it.

Then you can’t swim, your dog is burnt, and all you bass are belong to somebody else.

FTR, I do sculpture. I do 'em fast. I’m stuck with a bit of epoxy putty, after doing what it’s intended for, I have a little piece left. Someone says “make a dog” or “make a chicken”, so I make a dog or a chicken out of it. A damn realistic looking mutt, or bird. And my best piece was a gamboling lamb. Which I did in ceramic clay, and never looked at it, while doing it. I did that shit, without looking at, or even thinking about what I was doing. I also did a lovely hummingbird.

I also have a long line of sculptures of sheep, dogs, birds, cats, plants, etc. where I just make one, they are amazed at the realism, and I hand it to the recipient.

OK, I’m tanked. This deserves reamage. Opal still ain’t the painter, Betty, who re-learned to paint left-handed, after her stroke, was.

Nor was she ever as good as Estella, who’s rendition of ‘Old San Juan’ (which looks kinda like a Picasso) I have on my wall.

Cheshire, you’re trying way, way too hard.

11

I don’t get it either. Is this performance art?

12

I was thinking it was too much blow.

13

Not cool dude.

14

So basically Cheshire Human you have been doing animals. Cool.

15

For those of us who may not have been paying attention, is this a topic on which you’ve spoken before?

If you’ve not mentioned this before, it’s a bit of a dick move waiting until she’s dead to offer your critique.

If you have mentioned it before, maybe it’s time to stop.

16

Post modernist irony. Either that, or it just doesn’t make sense. Hard to be sure.

17

I like cheese.

18

I got to ramble, rambling lamb!
I got to gambol, gamboling lamb, yeah.

I can’t really follow th OP, but are you going out of your way to insult another Doper post mortem? Doesn’t that kind of sound pathetic to you?

You HPCFs are the worst.
