Bonnie and Clyde

Discovered via Don't tell me what to feel. All my fuckin' life people have been telling me I do things wrong, I'm always the fucking asshole, and I look around and I see everyone else is infinitely more fucked-up than I am.





Most people seem to associate Bonnie Parker with Faye Dunaway and don't realize she was only 4 ft 11 in and weighed 90 lbs.

Jimmy Fowler, writing for the Dallas Observer noted, "although the authorities who gunned down the 23-year-old in 1934 conceded that she was no bloodthirsty killer and that when taken into custody she tended to inspire the paternal aspects of the police who held her ... there was a mystifying devolution from the high school poet, speech class star, and mini-celebrity who performed Shirley Temple-like as a warm up act at the stump speeches of local politicians to the accomplice of rage-filled Clyde Barrow."[8]

Speaking of assholes, it would appear as though Dick Cheney is really set on shooting gray wolves in his retirement.

On The Limits Of Memory

Square America: On The Limits Of Memory - About 70 (45 new to the site) optically distorted photos. Dreamy and strange, they are the product of cheap cameras and damaged negatives- no photoshop necessary.







Last month's Smoke series is also worth noting.

Inhaled. Burned. Thrown away.

This is one of 20 bizarre Japanese smoking manners ads featured at InventorSpot.

12) "Inhaled. Burned. Thrown away. If it were anything but a cigarette, it would surely be crying."
Could this be the world's first Emo cigarette ad? I really feel for that poor, discarded cigarette butt; left behind, all bent & broken, nothing left but to decay into dust like windblown autumn leaves... hey, now I'm doing it! And tell me a chick, er, a woman didn't write this ad. Boy meets cig, boy uses cig for his own vile and selfish purposes, boy dumps cig like... well, like a used-up cig. Call it catharsis, lightly scented with menthol.

lamarde has quite an impressive collection of vintage smoking related advertising.

In other strangely appealing aesthetic news, this image below sure reminds me of the early '90's. For similar images sans fig leafs check out Zillow Book for cash back at close.
