For those who don’t remember, I once dissected several weeks of Facebook instant message conversations between me and my best friend, Liz, in order to make poetry. If you’re interested in seeing how that went, click here. I promise it’s a really quick and very funny read.
Last night I was talking to Liz again (as I sometimes do) and I thought maybe it was time for round two. So here’s a quick refresher on how this works: Each line is either part of a single IM or an entire IM. No out of context quote will be continued beyond one line (which is why some are way longer than others) so each new line is most likely from an entirely different conversation. Which is what makes it so fun!
I think that’s it. Enjoy!
#1
What’s the opposite of a miracle?
It is fairly tragic
There are always hurdles
Sometimes known as life
That is pretty much everyone else’s story isn’t it?
No I just went with mistake
#2
Have you forgotten the plan already?
It wouldn’t work anyway
#3
I drank an entire bottle of champagne last night
It fills the pit of my stomach with awful
I figured you could just ignore the words that don’t make sense
#4
His life fascinates me
He seems to have childrens
Unless he buys lots of drugs which…yeah maybe
But to go back to three seconds ago
I am too harsh perhaps
#5
I’ve just accepted that I will never take the time to develop talents because laziness is what I live for
We all feel like bitches sometimes
Which I hate
It’s just like the gypsy woman said
It’s nice when we have justification for our hate, isn’t it?
#6
It seems he’s liking your services
You can call him Leather Damnation if you want
Weirdly, he doesn’t seem interested in civil discussion
That’s what my bladdy blah insert BDSM reference here
#7
It’s just like the gypsy woman said
She was blondish and always wore inappropriate clothing?
Is that not fucking ominous?
What’s really weird is that does make sense
Oookay this isn’t real. This cannot be real.
Yep. Now it’s an omen.
#8
I could just spend hours licking your face…
That’s a good attribute in a fake employer
#9
Is that what the Thanksgiving guilt trip was about?
She was blondish and always wore inappropriate clothing? So yes?
Jesus Christ what did we do???
It’s like a freaking soap opera
She’s never had sex with you
This woman is unacceptable. Like everything about her.
She doesn’t even know words
I hate it when people are so easy to figure out
Why can’t anyone be not the worst?
Just adding on in case you thought my reaction wasn’t furious enough
#10
Also that is a fake job that fake people make up for real money
And I’m not even a literal prostitute
That’s a good attribute in a fake employer
#11
You may want to add in some subtle details about our lesbian affair
You can leave out the shelf of rainbow colored dildos
And I’m not even a literal prostitute
#12
I’ll be sure to treat everyone I meet like scum
Thanks. Now I feel….better?
Southern hospitality is for the weak
#13
I know all those feels
I have lots of sympathy for people who have to write dissertations
I would’ve stolen them otherwise, I’ll be honest
#14
I MUST ALWAYS MAKE MY POINT AS HARD AS POSSIBLE
Subtlety is my middle name! Or is it Danger? I’ve forgotten my middle name!
RIGHTS, DAMNIT. You’re no Dr. Freedom.
Maybe it really is God’s country out there
Yeah, I mean if you don’t have a good point, at least make a big one
24 is the new 67!
You’re PASSING DEATH
Maybe making ghost noises while doing it
It’s better than feeling stagnant, that’s for sure
But just because I say something doesn’t mean it’s true
#15
Aw man is that murderer back?
That’s worse than regrettable tattoos!
Mmmm internet? Blame the internet somehow.
#16
I mean like…flowers have roots. Flowers are pretty! Bam. Done.
I saw one knock a doughnut right out of a kid’s hand
No lesson was learned
#17
Dear god that sticker is so fucking appropriate it’s almost creepy
It better have smelled like Queen Elizabeth’s left nipple for that price
#18
It’s hard to find for some reason
But it feels important!
I don’t know many details
IT’S SO PRETTY
And probably not coated in barnacles!
Thickly layered paint, lots of colors and surreal elements
For some reason it seemed much more permanent
#19
I needed to escape my life so many times
Like just staring at a single picture for way too long and then not being able to focus on lunch
I guess that means something happened. I don’t know what. Something wise or whatever.
Maybe that’s good for your creative process
Pointless because all the characters are awful
Even more interesting! Or something.
#20
I do not understand taxes
Just like…”Hey world! Buy drugs! #thuglife” or whatever
#21
Now you’ve redeemed yourself. To yourself. The only person who ever cared.
For shits and giggles
So that must’ve been fun
#22
Now you’ll be able to give me grandchildren!
Are you trying to make me explode with envy?
I am so sad because I am selfish fuck you
#23
I’d like to believe the brown was chocolate. Otherwise what’s the point of brown existing?
That wasn’t the point at all but man….peanut butter is important to me
