A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

    … and then give Daniel a pretty sweet makeover. (Actually, did that, in addition to taking the photo.)

    Doesn’t this photo of knifefight have a wintry, almost Russian feeling to it? Like a sexy Dostoevsky novel, where Raskolnikov seduces the unscrupulous (yet scantily clad) pawnbroker, beginning a romantic journey that teaches them both a lesson abou— uhh, never mind.

    Reckoner: Hello?

    Buddy: Hey, it’s me. What are you up to tonight?

    Reckoner: Oh, hey. Actually, I was about to go for a run. Probably shower after that, get some reading done, and put some dinner together. And after that I was planning on taking some photos with a Spiderman toy riding my dick. So, kind of a busy night, actually.

    Buddy: What are you having for dinner? Wait, what? You’re going to have a Spiderman toy …

    Reckoner: … riding my dick, yes. Well, it actually depends on how you look at it. One person may see it and think, “Hey, that Spiderman’s got one hell of a cock on him. Nice.” Whereas the more cultured viewer may think, “Why, Spiderman is riding that dick like it’s an A-bomb, Dr. Strangelove-style! What an odd yet surprisingly rewarding mélange of cultural references!” So there are really a lot of levels at work here.

    Buddy: I see.

    Reckoner: Anyway, the point is that I’ve got a pretty full dance card, but maybe we could get together later in the week. Oh, you wouldn’t happen to have any old G.I. Joe action figures, would you?

    Buddy: Absolutely not.

    Reckoner: Don’t sweat it. Talk to you soon.

  • I Have the Heart of a Small Boy … and I Keep it in a Jar on my Desk


    Hey, guess where these came from! I think you’ll be … whatever. First one to guess correctly gets a strip of Dramamine and a blast from one of those Men in Black memory erasers. Guh.

    Keloid removal by Brooklyn’s resident shaman, IAM: xPUREx at Pure Body Arts. Those suckers developed on ear piercings the client got when she was 12 and in which she wore jewelry for only a few months. The scar tissue kept growing and, after years of being turned down by doctors for treatment unable to manage getting it taken care of by cosmetic surgeons, she went this route.

    Squick yourselves to sleep, ModBlog, and we’ll see you in the morning.
