ROCK paper scissors

his studio address is the following

if you send your rock now, it should arrive in time for fools day

I don't get it. Besides, I only play Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock.

I wonder how the postal service feels about people sending rocks in the mail

03-23-2009, 11:53 AM

You can actually stick the address label and the postage directly on the rock, FYI.

If'n you got money to send a rock, you got $ to send me treats.
Just sayin'
Cos I got grief re offering to send treats to Merkins.
Issue resolved, FTR

Why aren’t sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they take notes in class? I’ll tell you why, because paper can’t beat anybody. When I play rock paper scissors, I always choose rock. Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist and say, oh shit, I’m sorry, I thought paper would protect you, you asshole!

If someone could please send me this rock ASAP, I'd be willing to cover the extra postage. TIA.

Huh. It looks like that big shoulder tattoo ought to be visible in the picture on the left. I wonder if they really are before-and-after shots, or if he routinely covers it up with makeup?

That is a relatively recent tattoo. Here is the history and supposed meaning, if you are interested. But more importantly, linkie has more pics
