Did you know that “Tron: Ares” is an anagram of “Tron: Arse”?

To be fair I think Tron whatsit would have been crap anyway. As long as they keep wasting him on poor movies I don’t care.

I’m very happy being an engineer, I just wish I could draw.

My sister studied art, had some minor success as an artist then started teaching it at the prep school we went to. She’s now head of the department. So she got all the artistic ability!

I’m still not entirely sure who Mr. Beast is but I’m deliberately not looking it up so I can enjoy my ignorance.

DO NOT EXPLAIN IT TO ME OR I WILL BLOCN YOU.

Because when something illegal is done to someone you think is a bit of a dick it’s still illegal. Also his daughter was fired by the DOJ too.

At least in the 80s they’d show us those horrifying docudramas about what happens to kids who do drugs.

Not scary, more like observing the tropes of the genre.

Maybe when I retire I’ll give it a go. Too much other stuff on right now.

That was it. No constructive criticism or suggestions on what I could do better.

I never did another art lesson in my life.

Now I had no real ability but I understood the basics of perspective and shading so I tried to do a reasonable picture of the apple. I doubt it was amazing but it was a heartfelt effort.

The teacher came round to look at what he'd done and when he saw mine he said "Rubbish".

When I was a child I did art like all children do; I think my mother's still got a few pieces around her house. But then when I was 13 I went to secondary school and we had out first art lesson. The teacher, Trevor, put an apple on the table and asked us to draw it. So I did.
