a brief conversation with neanderthals


this is a photo of a very nice kleenex box....this box inspired this conversation at the grocer:

bagger (middle aged woman)-my, what a nice pattern!

cashier (young male)-yeah, it looks like ed hardy's artwork!

bagger-oh, is his artwork popular?

cashier-definitely, i mean, i can get his stuff for cheap at ross, normally it's like a hundred bucks!

bagger-are these lithographs or original prints?

cashier-i don't think he makes lithographs, but at ross you get originals!

bagger-well, i am glad the youth of today knows about art...do you know who this artist is, sweetie?: looks to me:

me-he designs gaudy tee shirts that aren't even worthy of carrying the name art.i'd rather be in a room of nagel prints for eternity.good day!


...really?ed hardy,oh,i'm sorry."don" ed hardy isn't even an artist!!!his brilliant designs are done by one christian audiger who is so greasy looking,he makes john galliano look like a well manicured man...although,it should be noted,galliano can design)cone bras cicra 1994,anyone?)i just really hope that remark wasn't meant to engage me,since like hairgel and affliction shirts,ed hardy also extablishes assholes from a mile away(1/3 of this joke is stolen from demetri martin,which in turn is probably stolen from the spirit of mitch hedberg{rip})

i realize i may not be one to bag on the fashions of others,since generally i can be found in tee shirts and jeans,but ed hardy?really?tiger/wolf/lion shirt motifs are only acceptable if they are tacky zoo souvenir shirts or clearly someone else's tacky zoo souvenir shirt.

...i do have a zoo pass...hmmm...
