Fuck you, Frank Zappa.There's a quote going around Tumblr right now from Frank Zappa:
If you end up with a boring miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television telling you how to do your shit, then you deserve it.
No one deserves or is entitled to anything. However, this is a really callous, judgmental attitude in this quote.
When we're young, we look to the adults in our lives for guidance—it's not just choice, it's human instinct. Young mammals ALWAYS look to their adults to learn what the world is about. They have no other frame of reference.
If a young person is mistreated or fed a particular set of social norms and mores, and that's all they ever have access to, and they don't know that it's possible to have alternatives—and especially if from a young age their sense of curiosity is crushed repeatedly—then they may end up like the person in the image above.

First, I love these little ones. The moss makes them look even better. Also, what kinds of materials did you use to make them? Thanks!

~Gimpbeast Nov 22, 2011

I used an air drying paper clay for these little guys. Didn't need to paint them because the clay was white to start with. For the moss I just left them outside in a shady part of the garden for a few months to get rained on. Glad you like them ^__^
