GFDC

I worked in a pet shop, where we sold animals and supplies to owners of animals. It worked out. One goldfish got really weird about being as deprived of meaning as it was. Anthropocentric, but illustration is hard? for me! It acted like other goldfish; it just died sooner. This goldfish and I have practically nothing in common (though I will die sooner than I’m buried…probably…so we have a word). Too many changes for this fella, I think. None of them probably that different. This is a pet shop goldfish. But they are different. Difference is alright for goldfish it seems. None of them seem offput if I feed them in patterns of pentagrams or caribou or other things I think about a lot when I feed golden fish. But if I take away what makes things strange or different, their whole context (like when I put a half cup of l s d in their soil or make them take bergman seriously) most of them don’t do a hot damn thing. This goldy fish, though, really flippered into lala . All to not do it. Ignoring devaru-chakras, it didn’t even happen. Our [you better take responsibility for this pal by now!] gfishy went all shiny happy flower rythm and just tuckered all out. Still though, GOLD fish make so little energy. our frIEnd really fucked the system.

I composed a song about it; the song went like this, and you can get a wax cylinder recording from iTunes’s store.

“I’ll grant you a wish

to be a fish

I’m adick adickted toDickCheney

For you

It’s the most I’ll ever do for you”
(After dICk Chaiiieeekkkny sent us this little anecdote he was fired for torturing people (this Pet Shop does not encourage ‘intensive interrogations) so he stopped selling dead dinosaurs and moved to selling happiness. What a killer!)
