snd me ur txt msgs, plz?

elephantEveryone, I thought it might be fun to get your help on this. For the Dollar Store Super Summer Tour, I’m scheduled to read for 5mins in Houston this Monday with Gene Morgan and others. The dollar store item that I received is in the above picture. It is an elephant cellular phone holster that attaches to my belt or hangs around my neck. This holster gave me the idea to ask you to email me favorite text messages you have sent or received. I would like to combine these text messages into poems/stories/texts/things to read at the Dollar Store Show Tour at Domy Books on Monday night. I promise to post the things at HTMLGIANT after the event so that everyone can read them.

I think this could be fun? Please email the exact text message, with text message language intact, to htmlgiant [at] gmail [dot] com – use subject $ STORE SHOW or DOLLAR STORE SHOW or something like that. I will take whatever I can get through like 10pm CST tonight. I will try to use every line I receive. I hope this works.

Oh, new idea: or you can also post them in the comments section. That might be fun also. Then other people can play with them too, maybe? The point is this should be really messy.

      I’m destroying the bathroom while you pass gas in Morningside Heights

      I’m passing gas on cat faces

      That’s okay, they passed gas on your face when you were asleep

      Explains the extra fierce morning breath

      Leonard Choen was really good

      Not as good as Susan Boyle

      She’ll always be the one who set my standards WAY too high. Damn her!

      The boner that no other boner can out-bone

      That girl’s got nice tonsils

      This poo is extra stanky

      Put some in a jar for later

      That would be selfish; no, I’d rather let it be my gift to the world

      As all the lonely jars in the world shed tears of neglect

      Can’t please everyone, not even with a poo this stanky

      Too bad there aren’t double toilets in there. We could hold hands and make stanky poos together. As one

      You should become an architect

      An asstronaut

      I got nothing

      Booyah. Dawg.

      its nice to know no matter how good/bad the writer is, texting can bowl us all down into the same pot.

      still, this is some funny shit. and kinda good/bad too.
