When your pen pal finally gets early release and he's everything you ever dreamed of

“This was the damnedest thing under the sun. The way these guys figured. Steve had heard them plenty, in the pen. Talking, talking, talking. How they were right and the rest of the world was wrong. The rest of the world was full of square-johns, guys dumb enough to work for a living, dopes. How come the smart guys were inside and the dopes outside? Ah, there’d been a little slip-up. But the next one. The next one would pay fine, a big haul.” ~ John & Ward Hawkins

This is genius and lovely.

i really hate when the mobile loaves and fish homeless giving truck parks on the sidewalk infront of the ex con halfway house that’s by my house and i’m walking home and I have to walk on that part of the sidewalk so i’m walking towards the truck that’s surrounded by homeless people and ex cons and they think i’m walking towards the truck and some of the men try to talk to me and sometimes yell out nasty nasty things and i’m like ugh, i’m sorry but i DO NOT even look homeless today!! #walking!!#problems!!

Haven't you ever heard of putting your best foot forward?
