This is probably the most obscure guy I've ever used in an AHTT... no, wait, Chrysippus, nevermind.
This guy had too much crazy to fit into one comic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Darger
Hey, I finally got a URL for the website. www.HandTurkeys.com
I promise to try to update more regularly now. But keep in mind that a promise is not a guarantee. I think I'll try Fridays, again. Yes: Fridays.
I didn't eat anything at Thanksgiving yesterday. I'm never hungry when it's time to eat, so I usually end up only getting like some mashed potatoes and a slice of pumpkin pie. Pumpkin Pie is underrated as one of the things that make life worth living.
I have no other information to give.

It's fucking scary that I've heard of every single guy you've used in AHTH (with the exception of Chrysippus and the Asperger's dude).

i agree writing posts in all lower case has passed its used by date, hence i no longer do it.
these things used to make me laugh, now i barely raise a smile.

You're half right. It has nothing to do with being gay. Straight guys can spoon all they want. Snuggling isn't the realm of homos, everyone can enjoy. But I got it when I was way young, like, four or five because if anyone was ever in bed with me I'd spoon them. It was probably pretty creepy, except for that I was young so it was cute.
Still love to spoon though. Snuggling in general is awesome.

Manly men don't 'cuddle', we fuck then make the bitch make us a sandwich and then kick her ass out on the street.
Of course we keep her cloths as a trophy of sorts.
On I side not, I got the nickname 'Doodles' when I was about that age too, but I don't know what for.

i love darger. i thought about doing a post on him a while back
---
I did an APW post on him awhile ago. He was on display at the Andy Warhol museum when I visited in the summer, and it was weird. The art's actually interesting in its own right, but I still think Darger himself is a fucking nutball.

Sorry I didn't do anything for Thanksgiving, but here's the deal: I didn't have any good ideas at all. So that was the end of it.

Should have been here yesterday. And had to do with thanksgiving.
I was emo and cut my wrists because I had no AHTT post of my turkey day.
I also had no turkey.
Or pumkin pie.
Infact all I had was a hamburger and fries.
