Everything I draw ends up wearing a bow-tie

I would not, but then I’ve always had terrible difficulty in knowing where the boundaries between confidence and arrogance lie, so I suppose I simply trained myself not to approach one in fear of wandering into the other.

On the other hand I think cheerfully haphazard is one of the most delightfully accurate descriptions of me that I’ve ever read.

I didn’t know you had to ask permission for that sort of thing.

I have transcended gender

I am above this lowly mortal plane

I am all that encompasses and that excludes

I am

a spoon

why do people always send me these after a post of me pulling stupid faces

Anon-chan I’m sorry but my heart just doesn’t go doki for anyone that isn’t fictional like me.

Well I’m actually meeting a client at 1 to discuss character designs so I thought I’d wear the jacket my sister got me to buy over Christmas.

The only problem is it’s a bit more garish than I usually go for and I sort of feel like I’m obliged to pull faces like Jim Carrey or

Austin Powers or some shit

idk guys I think I need to break it in

I AM HERE AND YES I DID SHOUTY ANON

Sorry for being slow at posting stuff but yes, as you have so astutely deduced I’m back home in the UK for Merry Chrimblemas and having a lovely time with a very weak internet connection hohoho and all of that.

Anon, are you familiar with the term ‘sodomy?’

It may explain a bit.

That said, if you consider the way that human beings actually use swear words, they often completely forgo any particular relation to the origin of the word. It’s a means of expressing distaste or insulting someone, yes, but it’s also a means of venting, much as the way someone stubs their toe and says 'ow’. Ow has no intrinsic value or meaning, it is a sound, a sound that your body and brain produces to distract you from the pain; swearing or screaming is a way of getting rid of or numbing yourself to pain, irritation or anger.

In other words, in the unique case of oaths and curses, the importance of knowing the original meaning of the word is lessened, because the function of swearing is not literal communication but emotive communication. One of the most interesting things about swear words (in my opinion) is that they are so versatile that you can not only use them as adjectives, nouns and pronouns, but you can also use them positively or negatively as freely as you wish. The meaning of swear words lies in context and expression. It is the intent of the speaker or writer that defines the word, not the original meaning of the word.

After all, when was the last time that you said 'motherfucker’ and genuinely meant what you said?
