Build Me Up, Buttercup

This post is dedicated to the man who has been my unexpected roommate for a year and half without killing me or finding himself pushed off the fourth floor balcony he’d so wanted. 

He is, quite obviously, mad as a bag of frogs, and quotes William Carlos Williams’ poems when stealing my toilet paper:

Forgive me,
It was so papery.

“D’ya get it?!  Do ya, do ya, do ya?  I mean, do ya get it??”

“You mean you imitating a horrible poet?  You mean that was intentional?  You read poetry?  You read?”
