Sharpie Night - The Sequel! Merchandise soon to come.




Sharpie Night 2!!! - February 6th, 2009

So, last night started out as any other night... I went out, picked up a friend and went to the bar I usually go to. We took a lot of Sharpies. 8 of them. OH yes. Black, brown, green, purple, blue, orange, yellow and red. And they were all used. The brown one, I assumed, had no purpose. Aimee proved it useful by drawing a nice little tree on my arm. After she did that, I offered a sharpie to Shannon, and she was kind enough to draw a tiger lily on my arm. As gorgeous as it was, it has to have been the best piece of the night. Jeff was also kind enough to add onto it by writing "It should be harder to take away an idea, return it, or ignore it."

Matt drew a swallow on my right arm, not sure why... Kim also added a nice touch by writing down a favorite quote of mine by Charles Manson, "Believe me, if I started murdering people.... There'd be none of you left."

Kayla also drew on my arm a sun with the words "UR 2 HAWT 2 HANDLE". And Aimee drew a beautiful Celtic knot thing. All in all, t'was a good night.

Intro + Night 1. The Beginning. The one night to Rule them all!

Hey there. This is the story of my triumph, my eclecticism... (Sp?). I'm a normal 20 year old male. I wake up every morning. I brush my teeth. I procrastinate. I heart Lego. And I enjoy poetry and a glass of scotch. And this is my story.

After liberal amounts of alcohol (3 pints), I get a crazy idea. I write Love on a lesbians arm, to be spontaneous. Then she takes the sharpie from me, writes her phone number along with "I'm usually a lesbian." Then she says to me, "Do you know the official days?". I gave her a puzzled look. And she said "September 19th is Talk Like A Pirate day!". And then she kissed me upon the lips. So we're talking a bit, and then she laughs at something I say, and I write on her other arm "Always keep faith in YO'SELF!"and then she writes down on my other arm: her phone number, again. Her name, which I already knew. And a nice little quip about her. Later in the evening, there was another girl and she was quite smashed... I asked her what her favorite song was. And she wrote down "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton. And then her friend had her own marker and drew some kind of retarded ram with cat-eyes in it's neck. It was quite entertaining.

Basically, I'm taking pictures of what people write on me. For I am the walking Sharpie Canvas. I will encourage people to write profound quips, something they strongly believe in. Or just... Whatever they feel like as long as it isn't derogatory or disapproved by me. Who knows? You may be reading this blog one day and say, "I wrote that on his arm!"
