holiday: vampire weekend

     

For some unknown reason, I love this ad. I saw it in literally every cab in New York. I just think it's kinda fun..It's like an incredibly happy & bright version of  The Royal Tenenbaums. The kids with curly hair are like Chas's kids. The girls in sunglasses remind me of Margot.  The elderly fellow is like Royal. I dunno. It's bizarre and random but kinda perfect. It's homey and family-y.

I suppose these things correlate with home and family:

I want her gold skirt...

AND SOME MORE:

A few months ago I came across one of Kanye West's blog posts. I guess South Park made him look like a fool and so these are his thoughts on it. It speaks for itself...

SOUTH PARK MURDERED ME LAST NIGHT AND IT'S PRETTY FUNNY. IT HURTS MY FEELINGS BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM SOUTH PARK! I ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY EGO THOUGH. HAVING THE CRAZY EGO IS PLAYED OUT AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE AND CAREER. I USE TO USE IT TO BUILD UP MY ESTEEM WHEN NOBODY BELIEVED IN ME. NOW THAT PEOPLE DO BELIEVE AND SUPPORT MY MUSIC AND PRODUCTS THE BEST RESPONSE IS THANK YOU INSTEAD OF "I TOLD YOU SO!!!" IT'S COOL TO TALK [bad word] WHEN YOU'RE RAPPING BUT NOT IN REAL LIFE. WHEN YOU MEET LITTLE WAYNE IN PERSON HE'S THE NICEST GUY FOR EXAMPLE. I JUST WANNA BE A DOPER PERSON WHICH STARTS WITH ME NOT ALWAYS TELLING PEOPLE HOW DOPE I THINK I AM. I NEED TO JUST GET PAST MYSELF. DROP THE BRAVADO AND JUST MAKE DOPE PRODUCT. EVERYTHING IS NOT THAT SERIOUS. AS LONG AS PEOPLE THINK I ACT LIKE A [bad word] THIS TYPE OF [bad word] WILL HAPPEN TO ME. I GOT A LONG ROAD AHEAD OF ME TO MAKE PEOPLE BELIEVE I'M NOT ACTUALLY A HUGE DOUCHE BUT I'M UP FOR THE CHALLENGE. I'M SURE THE WRITERS AT SOUTH PARK ARE REALLY NICE PEOPLE IN REAL LIFE. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO DRAW MY CREW. THAT WAS PRETTY FUNNY ALSO!! I'M SURE THERE'S GRAMMATICAL ERRORS IN THIS...THAT'S HOW YOU KNOW IT'S ME!

I actually do think it's pretty cool he is trying to humble himself...

is it 100 % sincere? maybe. 100% hilarious? oh yes.
