So there I was, sitting at my desk and between the tediousness of helping those who are not able to help themselves, I did a little #2 pencil sketch of the Sharpie marker that I keep on hand for special projects.
Granted, this is just a simple sketch. Practically a doodle. But in a moment of vanity I decided that this piece of art must be photographed and uploaded to Flickr and Facebook. So I did just that.
You see? Do you see that? The delicious irony made even more delicious and evil because it was not intentional. In case you missed it, look at the drawing above. It is a sketch of a Sharpie marker, done with a #2 pencil and then photographed with the camera on my BlackBerry Curve. The photo is out of focus.
Do you see? Do you see it now? It’s a sketch of a “Sharpie” but the it is out of focus and hence, NOT SHARP AT ALL!!! Oh my god, how can I be so talented and clever? I don’t question these things, I just roll with it.
