Pobre corazoncito mio.

Poor stinky lonely pitiful little pump.

Woe is me.
WHOA, Nelly.
I mean... Bambi? Bambi is that you??!! BAMBI??

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Be still my heart!
No, wait, don't be still. I need you to keep thump-bumping for another half dozen decades or more. I got shit ta do.

It's ok, my little beatbox. I know you're still hurting. We're hurting together.

And like a solitary soldier with a broken leg, we'll wander in circles in the desert seeking an oasis but finding only, again and again, the same mirage.

Actually, fuck that shit.
Let's not chase any more mirages, Pumpy. Let's just sit here and wait for the oasis come to us.
Might be a minute...

All the stuff (pictures, words, dead things, etc.) I put in this post and any of my other posts is mine (unless otherwise stated) and can't be used by anyone else unless I say it's ok. Same goes with ideas. All the cool ideas are mine. Especially the ones I steal. So don't steal them. Who the hell do you think you are, Picasso? I'M the Picasso! Don't make me drag you out into to the [gluten free] wheat field and get all Van Gogh on your ass. Wait. What? Oh, you're into that? Oh, ok. I guess that kinda changes things, huh. Can I get your number, then?
