Not Dead!

Just to clarify. We are not dead. We (Dan and Vince) are still around, still working at Starbucks, and still very much surreal.

Sorry for the lack of blogging, but we've been working on something big- you'll see it soon.

Dan

Hey Vince
I just typed a blog saying sorry we hadn't been blogging because we were working on a big art project
hahaha
that should keep people happy
now we just need to come up with something we could say we've been working on
since, actually, we haven't been working on anything.
Vince?
Hello?
Oh crap.
This isn't IM is it?
This is blogspot?
Meaning I'm typing all of this into a blog and not into IM?
Crap.

"I hope today's blog is better than yesterdays..."

Uh- what? You didn't like the video, I thought-

"I thought you said that every Thursday you would publish an 'Art We Like' column."

Well, yeah, but dude... I'm trying...

"No you're not, you're just throwing some crap in this little window, trying to get together what can barely be considered a blog so that I'll leave you alone!"

Okay fine, voice that haunt me every time I open up blogspot, I'll try harder. I will I swear.

"Good. Now how's the job?"

It's going alright. I just wish people weren't so dumb though, you know?

"Yeah... I know... I used to wait tables and-"

Oh, see I didn't even know that about you. Wow. But, yeah, you know, it's like 'for the last time a berry chai infusion doesn't have milk in it, we're infusing berries and chai- can't you read'?

"No milk? Weird..."

Yeah, I guess maybe it's not that obvious...

"I don't know, maybe it is, I'd have to see the sign."

It's just a chalk drawing actually...

"So, we'll get a better blog tomorrow?"

Yeah, you will. I'm sorry.

Blog Blog

Okay guys, we need to discuss the fact that all of our blogging recently has been about the fact that we don't blog. And now that it appears we're blogging again, well, it looks like we'll have to come up with something else to blog about. Perhaps we shall blog about how we consistently blog? So something like...
woke up today, typed a blog, this blog, that you're reading, see, now I'm almost done with it, I'm still typing it now, but I think I'm almost done... almost... alonst... ouch, made a typo in that last word... and... done!
So, clearly, this is going to be awesome!

Talk of a Corporate Take-Over is Exaggerated

Okay guys, we need to discuss this lack of blogging.

Check this out, do you guys want to buy a surreal story? Like you give us a few bucks and we tell you something weird- "she models for potato chips!" or whatever? Does that interest you?

Of course not!*

Turns out it doesn't really interest anyone. So we, Dan and Vince, have had to get real-world jobs to support the surrealing for a little while. It's a recession. Things are tough all over, and if we make machiatos during the day, it ensures that our art can remain free from any kind of corporate-ness... Think about it:
Last night we filled a fountain with Mountain Dew brand soda, and covered the ground around it with Doritos brand Dorito chips. It's like giant chips and queso in hyper-color and backwards. This surrealing is brought to you by Pepsi Co.**
Anyway, I've got to get back to this venti caramel mocha (making it, not drinking it) but, hey, we'll talk soon. Or whatevz... we'll get our crap together soon. Thanks for reading.

Dan

* If you do want to pay, let us know, we'll work something out.
** Note to self: Approach Pepsi Co. about Fountain prank.

Let's Change Topics!

"Hey, how come you guys never blog or Twitter anymore?"

Hey, how come your face?

"What?"

Shut up! Look at this Britney Spears did something weird. She said Merry Christmas to her audience- in March, what a cooky* broad!



Seriously, what a weird way to throw people off... let's call it surreal.

At least somebody's being surreal...

Dan

* No idea how to actually spell that word- if it's a real word, which I don't think it is, but I know it's not c-o-o-k-i-e, that's a different word. A delicious word.

Blog Time!

Okay, okay, okay, okay... It's ridiculous the lack of blogging from us, Dan and Vince, the last few days. We don't even have any sort of excuses- nothing. Just laziness.

So, how do we, Dan and Vince, make it up to you, our loyal readers?

Well, we have to blog. Blog like there's no tomorrow. Just blog, blog, blog, blog, blog.

Sure we tweet, but tweeting ain't blogging! Tweeting ain't nothing! We gotta blog!

So, how to blog? Well let's make sure we have a topic- everytime. Well, right now the topic is blogging. Done.

The topic needs to be current- blogging isn't some slow moving dinosaur like a newspaper or 24-hour news channel, blogging is now. Cool. None of the mainstream media is covering our lack of blogging. It's exclusive to here!

Then you need to express an opinion. It's ridiculous we don't blog more. Especially considering how easy it is. Done and done.

Great blog everyone! See you tomorrow!

Dan
