The instructions on growing this thing are a little… complex.

“Feed and water with inspiration and practice daily.” Really? I don’t know, man. I’ve got video games to play and an Internet to stare into aimlessly. And when the heck am I supposed to find time to go out with friends and complain about how I don’t create anything anymore? “Daily” seems pretty high maintenance.

And look at this part: “Show off to others periodically to gain both positive and negative feedback on your abilities, and adjust accordingly.” That’s sort of terrifying, don’t you think? It hardly seems worth growing if someone’s just going to tell me how much it sucks. Why bother even putting it out there for anyone to see?

You know, I think maybe these Pop Culture Dandelions over here are more my speed. They aren’t hard to find, their seeds spread like wildfire, and they basically choke the life out of every other artistic endeavor in the garden. Simple, easy, and perfectly lazy. Definitely a better choice.

Wear this shirt: as you stop to smell the roses.

Don’t wear this shirt: if you have a visual arts allergy.

This shirt tells the world: “Your party sounds great, but I should really stay home and get some painting done.”

We call this color: Fertile Black Soil
