jjb's versions of age-old questions

(to my cousin) There are mouth-eating rollercoasters coming at you and you've been permanently transfigured into a sock. They've surrounded your house and they're going to eat you. You can get worn by some guy and walk out, but the rollercoasters will eat him but you'll be safe. Or you can stay and get eaten and the man will be safe. What do you do? And the man is your brother.

(again to my cousin) You have to sleep in the same bed as everyone in the world with ice cold feet. Your choices are to die and then no one will have ice cold feet anymore, or live. The ice cold feet mean they're crazy.

Best thing I've read. Ever. JJB is philosopher-poet. But also a ninja.

Hope your appointment went alright the other day!!

JJB is a man of many things. To be honest I think he gets weirder by the day, which means we are all heading toward a point of terminal wtfery. hmmmmm

Thanks! It went as well as can be expected and I wasn't in tears by the end of it, plus it gave me the resolve to write a book called College Drop-out, just like Kanye West's CD!! Although it won't have anything to do with college or dropping out. Instead it'll either be a FANTASY DRAGON NOVEL or a meticulous history of wheat germ or something. That's probably not what the academic counselor was aiming for, but...
