I will kill those preverts who give a shit in my mouth every second day. FTR, don’t give a shit about anything except making it to the next month doing what I like – and then, the whole thing about paying for (and being eligible for) some rad health insurance, seeing if my nephew survives his next valve implant, fucking some awesome chicks whom I don’t hate, and saving enough bread to make sure I’m not playing harmonica in the street (or, jesus-cross myself, a guitar) when I’m 60 and dying of treatable cancer. ---

Now wait, what about the incident when I was working at the press clipping place and I’d cut a lot of clips and the boss came along saying “Give me your shit!” And I lost my job because I took it literally, and try explaining that to the DOL. ---

I’ve never really given a shit, but I have taken a shit. In the past, I did give a flying fuck, but that was when I was younger, thinner and airplane bathrooms were bigger. ---

> [@Mewl\_Dear](#): > > Why do you hate harmonicae? I don’t – it’s much better playing harp than stuck behind a guitar. All those hobos have mange-ridden dogs and smell like patchouli. (People from the music threads know I’m kidding – I love guitar. But good guitar, not that hobo kind). ---
