have issues, will draw

a friend quoted recently, "am i the only artist who doesnt have issues with the world?"

it would seem so, yes, mostly. at least as far as i know. it does seem so wonderful, being able to conjure up wonderful images
with casual movements of the wrist and not have a single care in the world. yes, it does sound wonderful, but sadly, it would appear that i would never arrive at such a stage. perhaps he just decides to close an eye over the issues, choosing not to think about them, afterall, he has a happy life going for him, why should he be bothered with issues?

went out yesterday with my brudders, and was talking about cars, which soon diverted into car talk shows, and ended up with radio shows.

SQ: you know, you should go start a radio show man, all those shows now with their wannabe ang moh accents, act-tuff bravado, and chirpy happy attitudes. you could start a new trend man.

me: huh? what talking you?

SQ: you know, all those pussy DJs who wanna act tough, act ang moh, act happy. i mean, look at fucking G**n* O**, fucker wants to act tough get tattoos, or that whats-his-name, wad O*g, with his ang moh faker accent. all those are posers man, you, you're the real stuff. radio show with attitude man. you'll be like the-whole-world's-fucked-up attitude guy who goes on air with those hokkien curses and "ai-ting-mai-ting, zhe gei song hor le play liao".

and this point, the 3 of us proceed to laugh.

JH: i dont think he'll get past the censorship boards. i think his whole show is gonna be filled beeps.

me: i dont think i'll even last 1 day on the job. they'd be like putting this on their website, "Med**c*rp radio has announced due to certain issues, so-and-so has hereby been suspended from the air" or something liddat.

SQ: then you can like after suspension go, "because my producers dont want to hear me swear in english, so i shall not swear in english. lanjiao nabei cheebye censorship boards. there, ladies and gentlemen, i state that i did not swear in english. i mean you dont even give a fuck right? you got that world-against-you and dont-take-no-shit attitude with you wad. i swear if you start that show, its gonna be the biggest hit.

JH: yeah and SQ's gonna be your number 1 fan.

me: yeah, big hit and one day later, pulled off air.

cue more laughter.
