In most of Canada, hard liquor is sold exclusively through government entities rather than private companies. These government storefronts are known as the "Liquor Control Board of [province name]". The Liquor Control Board of Ontario had been on strike for the last three or so weeks, but their union prevailed and the stores re-opened today -- to the benefit of my evening plans.
Thus the haggard-looking gif. It is from Trailer Park Boys, season 2, episode 1. Ricky and Julian have just been released from jail and Bubbles asks them, "So what's the plan, boys?" The gif depicts the following scene in its entirety.
I have spent the last few days near the elderly and a rotary phone and that exposure may have influenced my current interest in the aesthetics of old technology -- VCR-quality video and the like. So I made this gif.
I love how scuffed gifs used to be by necessity and I have wanted (and tried) to perpetuate that art-form born of low bandwidth.
I am drunk from the liquor for the first time in three or so weeks and thinking about art.
