Stuff about things
Wow...you Daily Shirt readers have no idea how tough today's post was.
The Shirtmaster must have false-started on this thing a dozen times, but the wordsmithing just wouldn't come out today.
First, it was going to be a tale about Frank's attic, and how today's Daily Shirt was a result of the adventuring inherent in cleaning out that space, and the treasures found therein. No dice.
Then, it turned into an idea about Shirty's references to the artworld; but honestly, I just don't know enough about art to BS my way through that. Not even the mighty (but often hilariously flawed) Wikipedia would have helped me through that - without a bunch of research to hide my ignorant buffoonery.
When that fell apart, I thought of doing a little ramble on the beauty of the non-sequiter and absurdism - as that's the premise that we work under, here (in more ways that one...). But, well, that would have taken too long; and such an amusing topic (with so much potential for idiocy) demands more planning than I have time for today.
So, here we are, a post about a bunch of non-posts. But hey this equals 'Post Count +1' and is an update with a new head on Thy Mighty Shirty, so, you're welcome.
