Jeremy the choiseul crested pigeon spent way too much money on his twin lens lomography camera for you to be asking what kind of instagram filter he used for his beach & twigs photo series.
Andy the blaubok is a stoic (that’s what he tells people when he gets picked on and they ask him why he didn’t say anything).
Some jerk of a salmon told Lydia the...
Drug dealer at the Grateful Dead cover band show: Do you like nitrous?

Me: Then no.

Brenna the Japanese sea lion is terrible at jump rope (she’s okay at four square though).
Melvin the great auk is never certain as to whether or not people call him “great” because they have to or because they want to.
Tabitha the moa is not a taxi, you guys, come on.

natashavc replied to your photo: You all know about King Cheetahs, right? Not…
do u think this cheetah loves dubstep?
No. Pretty sure this cheetah just wants to sing along to Gilbert and Sullivan’s “I Am the Very Model of a Modern General.”
I’ve gotten a lot more requests than I imagined I would have when I made that post yesterday about drawing your pets. So!
A few notes:
1. I’m going in order of emails received, if you don’t see yours soon, you will in the next month or so (also, I’m not going to do one every day continuously because I get bored easily and also, I work 12-14 hour days on the weekends).

This is an exercise I use whenever I want to start complaining about something arbitrary: I imagine a world in which there is a feature length movie version of Salinger’s Franny and Zooey starring, well, take your pick of actresses typically cast as the manic pixie dream girl, and actors typically cast as broody smokey jaded dude. When I stop imagining such a world, I awaken to a reality in...

Here is something I would like to try.
If anyone would like me to draw their pet, email me a photo of said pet. I will draw or paint the pet and post it here for my “365 days of drawing” thing. And maybe, if you’re lucky, when I have some extra cash, I’ll even mail you the physical drawing and you can frame it in that solid gold frame you picked up and few years ago but just haven’t found the right thing...

I just saw a bumper sticker that said “Fish naked” but at first, something about the light or the wear and tear to the sticker, I thought there was a comma and it said “Fish, naked” and I was like “well duh, fish don’t wear clothes. Come on.”

Is this a safe place? Can I level with you? I don’t want to put away this chicken broth I’ve been cooking all night. It just seems like too much work right now.
