Fuck Bill Watterson for talking big about the importance of art and then ditching it to go ride his bike in Ohio.
Fuck him I’m bitter. He didn’t have to be a hypocrite. Now it’s my biggest takeaway from his career.
“Dad, why did Bill Watterson lie to me all those years?”

Your world is nothing more than your perception(s).
