We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
ere will be no peace until we abandon the concept that "different" equals "ba
Bad,bad, Leroy Brown. The baddest man in the whole damn town. (You know the rest.)
Brave Dad and Bad Guy are wearing the same uniforms. Are they at a paint ball conference? Is Brave Dad guarding AWOL troops? Has he fomented a coup d'etat? Is Bad Guy in trouble because he's sticking his tongue out at Brave Dad?
that's weird facial hair, not a tongue. Five fingers on one hand, only three on the other. Poor Dad. Love the see-through gun.
is "dad" crying?
and two finds from the british isles. nice.
yikes.
hate guns
Dad and the bad guy look like they're half giraffe.
Bad guy looks like he's wearing pajamas with little ducks on them. Dad has a unibrow. With the extra combat pay and tax advantages of being in a cobat zone, dad will definitely come$ back.
Cute picture overall. I like it.
Are both these guys wearing yarmulkes and long Hasidic sideburns?
Maybe Brave Dad got called up by the Israeli Defense Forces.
That wouldn't explain Brave Dad's lack of upper body strength, though. So maybe they aren't yarmulkes, but are US Army helmets with the chin straps un-latched.
wait wait wait wait wait... what the hell is a windowscreen in a car? My car only has storm doors ...it would be great to get som screen doors though...
My Dad = Paul McCartney in Camo
Bad Guy = Ringo and Paul has had enough
Windscreen=Windsheild.
Now I'm stuck with "You're in the army now,
Woah-oh you're in the Army, in the army now."
Brave Dad's helmet is very Louise Brooks.
Bad Guy looks like Will Ferrell to me.
Bad Guy didn't actually do anything wrong; Brave Dad is just trying to stick him with all the blame for the leprosy outbreak.
Flarg, maybe it's a vitiligo outbreak.
Ouch. This Find brings a tear to my eye for my friend, Rob (hi, Rob!), currently in Afghanistan, (and will be for at least another year) while his wife and kids worry about him daily, and wander through life without Dad in the scene.
He WILL come back.
(and yeah. The dad in this picture is probably crying.)
Oh. and here's an apostrophe you can put in "kids" up there. '
Oh yeah. That said, Flargy, it's good to see you.
I GUESS THE CUNT OF A MOTHER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHILD'S OPTIMISM. LITTLE KELLY HAS BEEN SET UP FOR DISAPPOINTMENT
I'm disappointed -- shouldn't some brilliant soul tell us what the half-life writing (presumably on the back) says??
Why not you, Merrily? Why always someone ELSE?
All I can get is ...but (glue?) ... and special xxxxx
This is a really disturbing one when you think about it: if evil-ass Dick Cheney and mildly retarded dry-drunk W. hadn't stirred up a hornet's nest in the Middle East, Dad wouldn't be creeping around a village in Iraq or Afghanistan under cover of darkness with a silenced 9mm and this artwork would've never been made. Also, it's creepy because Dad has obviously said what exactly it is that he does to little Cannon Fodder, Jr.
It seems like a boy's drawing, but a girl's handwriting.
I was thinking maybe that the dad is in jail for shooting someone, and told the kid that it was a bad guy he shot. I know they're wearing camos, but it might not be that they are in the military. Could be that the kid just thinks it's a cool style.
Why was this put on Elaine's windsheild?
@Enough levity
Ah that's sad. Sadder still for the wives and families who will have to "wander through life without Dad in the scene" permanently because Dad got shot in the face by Rob.
Well okay, my apologies: that's mean, and I've no basis to claim it as fact.
My experience is far from all-encompassing, but I have seen a lot of different types of violence on a lot of different scales. I've still never seen violence that I'd reflect on as 'a good thing'.
Ah, it's a cheesy song but it fits well enough:
"We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?"
