happiness is a warm gun

i don't mind quotes that define you. that's what they're there for - to be researched online using relative keywords and then hastily plucked out of cyberspace and tagged onto your e-signature. sure, they're supposed to let the reader know something about your personality, but you have to realize that signature quotes are like tombstones - they'll stay with you forever. here's a few examples i've come across...

"Happiness is the Best Adventure on Earth!!" - thankfully, i read this on an empty stomach. otherwise, i'd be typing on a vomit puddled keyboard. note the unwarranted capitalization and egregious use of the double exclamation point. this quote can be roughly translated to "i live on antidepressants! wheeee!"

"There's a Natural Mystic Blowing Through the Air" - again with the overcapitalization. but the main point here is that this dude loves marley... especially while he's smoking that natural mystic.

"All this worldly wisdom was once the unamiable heresy of some wise man" - and that man was... you? are you saying that you're a wise man and is this quote your excuse for your current state of idiocy? well played.

and now i will attempt to define myself with a few quotes...

"reality is wrong. dreams are for real." -- tupac
"to find joy in work is to discover the fountain of youth." -- pearl s. buck
"i'm very important. i have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany" -- ron burgundy
