How Not To Talk To People

If I had seen myself out of body last night, I would've fired me. I couldn't say the right thing to save my life. When did media journalism become an extension of their advertising? Has it always been this way? Aren't journalists supposed to report on what's news? Aren't they supposed to bring to light things that are of interest to their public? Aren't magazines sold based on their content? (Maybe that's why I don't buy snowboard magazines). How do I sift through the bullshit to find the truth with a media that generally isn't interested in writing about what excites snowboarders? Am I arrogant because I don't wanna play the game their way? (I don't think I'd been called arrogant before). Should I be sorry for doing things the way I think they should be done? Sorry for not wanting (or able) to buy ad space? I dunno. And I don't generally have a problem with admitting I'm wrong, I'm usually the first to do so. Learn the lesson, move on. I can't say that I was at maximum charm last night, that's for sure. But sometimes there's no convincing someone when you don't see eye to eye. What I look for in any Agent is the hunger. I like to see the spirit in a person to be cagey, like a trapped tiger, yet able to be focused. Rage is good, but only if you can aim it.

This is a t-shirt from Threadless. In the least, Threadless is a pretty good way to waste a lot of time scoring artwork.
