He Said So

Because we ought to believe in talking parrots since they are a miracle in the animal world. Speaking non-human beings are precious and so are their words.




Is this true?
Don't ask me, I don't know shit!

It is Sunny Now

I hate it when I have hi-hello-how-are-you conversations.

They are just so (..)
- Hi!
- Hello!
- How are you?
conversations...

With (..)
- Fine! And you?
- Me too!
affirmations...

And (..)
- Fine
- Well
- Good
variations...

Oh, and it is sunny finally, sunny but cold.
Anyway I ate a winter ice-cream the other day - a Choc-and-Chip Vanilla Swirl - and it tasted SO GOOD I just don't know how to express it.
Winter ice-cream because it has milk in it. Summer ice-creams are water based, I personally dislike those types of ice-cream, they are not fat enough and they taste fake to me, like those unknown substances they add to your food to make it look nice and colorful.

Coffee Party

Strange thing happened today. I was in my room when my paintbrush rang!
I found myself wondering whether I should pick it up or not because mom said I only have permission to answer my tennis shoes, but I decided to take the risk. A familiar voice said:

What is the root of three thousand and ninety seven times eight?
Huh... Well, I don't know! I'm in the arts business!
Well, alright then, would you come to my Coffee Party?
Alice? Is that you? What about the Mad Hater's Tea Party?
Tea is so last year and I am more of a coffee person myself. I think you could use a coffee break so I decided to call you on your paintbrush.
I though paintbrushes didn't ring!
Well they didn't but if I called you on your shoes it would make your ear dirty and I can't have dirty people in my Coffee Party. Besides, that way we have have colorful conversations!
Great, should I take something with me?
Yes, please bring some broccoli
Why the hell do we need broccoli? Isn't it a COFFEE Party?
Yes but you see, we're trying to innovate here. Who created the rules for Coffee Parties anyway? I can bring whatever I want! I can bring my brother Raphael if I want to!
But... Bringing a person is normal, that is what parties are for, for people to enjoy themselves! Why shouldn't you bring your brother? It's normal!
What if my brother Raphael is a broccoli?
You're brother Raphael isn't a broccoli, that would make YOU a broccoli too and you know you are NOT a broccoli.
Well now I'll declare myself one, and you will come to my party and bring ME broccoli because I said so or else I'll serve you green tea.
Nah!
YES!
Okay I'll bring your damn broccolli.

MAC+++

You know you're a computer addict when...
Seriously, it happened to me. Sometimes I make a mistake drawing and I find myself in a fictitious search for a non-existent ctrl-z button.
But really, wouldn't it be great to have a little button to press when you made a mistake? Think about all the daring experiences you could make and that you avoid in the real world because you're afraid to mess something beautiful.
And I don't just mean Art.

This is a shitty old drawing but since it made a good point I decided to post it here. I don't know why I drew the gentleman or gentlewoman with loads of belly fat... It puzzles me now.
