i saw this pumpkin

it reminded me of halloween. i don't know why halloween is celebrated. no one really knows. no one cares either, as long as they can buy things. everything is orange and scary. in the future halloween will be a celebration of the orange people. you know, the ones with almost-pumpkin-coloured faces. fake bake will sponsor it. scary!

i saw this photo of poverty (a blog action day special)

today is blog action day and the theme is poverty. i'm not going to lecture you about poverty because, in my opinion, people either care or they don't. instead, i'm going to share with a photo that has had a big impact on me. i hope that it makes you think too.


this pulitzer prize winning photo is one of the most shocking photos i have ever seen.
the picture was taken during the 1994 sudan famine and shows a starving child crawling towards a united nations food camp, located a kilometre away. the vulture is waiting for the child to die so that it can eat him. no one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer kevin carter who left the place as soon as the photo was taken. three months later carter committed suicide. (information from worldfamousphotos.com)


that is all. now think, people, think.

it's a sad statue. but look at the sky. the sky's so happy! the sky's so blue! i've never seen the sky so calm!

i saw this mohican

on an anarchist once. (power to the people!)
the clonycavan man had a mohican. mohicans are high maintenance. it takes at least half an hour of backcombing, twisting, gelling and spraying. some people use toothpaste, shoe polish, glue or egg whites. why would you do that to yourself? it's a bit like a perm. or a mullet. not to mention the mo-hullet. not cool.

i saw this graffiti

i don't think it's art. or is it? maybe what makes it art is the fact that it's not art? people think it's vandalism, but, actually, it's just cool art that only cool people get? the correct singular of graffiti is graffito. but only really cool people know that.
