Just so you all know, I came up with that smileyface. I also coined the phrase "pardon my french", alright?!

I'm a goddamn genius of originality, a trendsetter of monumental proportions! Especially so when I've had some drinks. Especially. Anyway, since so many people seem confused as to just what the :3 smiley is supposed to mean, I figured I'd blog you through the fog.

[image loading]


Now you know. I'm a spreader of wisdom. Especially in combination with drinking. Goodnight!

We have fed the heart on fantasies, the heart's grown brutal from the fare, more substance in our enmities than in our love
