This image was the source of endless amusement in the Silly Season of Christmas 2009 so I thought it was time to resurrect it.
It may look like a crude MS Paint cartoon drafted by a jaded, whiskey soaked old journalist, but for me it is both beautiful and brilliant in its simplicity.
We could do well to learn a few tricks out of Stickman 2's book. Cut the bullshit and tell it like it really is once in a while. Here's an example:
Suitor: I'd like to sign up to be your German teacher. How about we catch up for a schnitzel next Thursday.
Heidi: How does 'Not in a million fucking years' sound?
In theory it's oh so easy. But I pulled out with the excuse that I had a rip snorting hangover. Pussy. It only delayed the inevitable.
So let's make a pact, you and I, to pull out the big truth guns every now and then.
Isn't that what all this new age sensitivity is supposed to be about?
