boobs, call me back when you stop being dumb.

Boobs are cool... sometimes.

Let's be honest, though.

they can be straight assholes...

When we're running.

When we're dancing. (if you get crazy on the dancefloor like that... as you should)

Back pain.

Unwanted attention.

Cleavage. Yeah, not all of us want it.

Especially if you have what's called "fat-girl titties," like me. Long ass cleavage line for no reason.

Underwire bras. (i refuse)

That cute strapless dress/shirt? Invest in a good strapless bra to go with it, or put it back on the rack.

Bras in general. WHY TF do they cost so much?

And, as If cramps weren't enough every month, who should we thank for the good ol' sore tittiness?

Last week, I had a zoom cocktail date with a friend of mine (also my ex-coworker/mentor/just great all-around woman). she lives across the country, hence the zoom. It had been a few months, so I was so happy to get to see her and to catch up. After chatting for a while, ya know, about our lives, sharing some tea (gossip) and laughs, she pauses and says, "hey, there's something I have to tell you." she's still smiling, so I'm thinking, oh it's some more tea! lemme hear it! I'm not the gossipy type, but i'd say a sprinkle here and there is perfectly healthy. she goes, "I went for my annual mammy recently, and they told me I have breast cancer. my mastectomy is scheduled for next week". bro, this was not the tea at all. The universe dropped this bs on my young, vibrant friend, and I wanted to punch it. But also punch myself because I was so thrown off by this news that I didn't have all the comforting consoling words I wanted to have.

After we got off the zoom, I looked down at my boobs. What good are you anyway? I know, I know. Breastfeeding, liquid gold, all that jazz. But beyond that? Sure, there are probably a few other things that make boobs cool, some consider them their best asset. but let's not forget all the things that make them not. All I'm saying is - boobs, when you want to be shitty like that, you can get the hell on. Little do you know, there are replacements for you now. Nice ones, too. Shirts, comfortable water/gel bras. We're way good!

I made this painting for my beautiful friend.
