Embarrassment of Riches

2017 August 16

Seen about town today…

Oh, my. An embarrassment of riches. Where to begin?

Clothing…

  • A tee-shirt emblazoned in the Facebook logo typeface with the word “Farcebook”.

  • A bikini top with cups made of stitched-together cowrie shells.

  • Another tee-shirt reading “I think you want some cake.”

Sleeping people…

  • A young man, sitting on a park bench, asleep, head thrown back, mouth agape, drooling. On his chest he wears a baby in a Snugli, asleep, head thrown back, mouth agape, drooling.

  • A young man, asleep on the grass. He shields his face with a book: Larry Niven’s Ringworld.

Advertisements…

  • An ad for a tattoo parlor, on a free-standing A-frame sign, including the hashtag #definitelynotapenis

And…

  • For Guy Colston, a dude with a full-sleeve tat montage of Marvel Comics superheroes.
