This painting has been knocking around the garage for months or maybe even a whole year, I can’t remember. My kid’s girlfriend got it from some theater she works at that either plays the movie or does a production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The painting was hanging in the lobby or something.

I thought she gave it to Bonnie, knowing how much she loves that stupid fucking movie, but today I learned the real story. She, my kid, and his girlfriend were outside at his girlfriend’s car when she pulled the painting out of her trunk and Bonnie called dibs on it. My kid defended her dibs, so his girlfriend surrendered the painting to Bonnie. I told her that was a dick move, and she agreed, unrepentantly.

I had intended to frame it and hang it somewhere, but it was low on my list of priorities both because of have so many other things to do, and because I hate that stupid fucking movie. It bothers me that they both cheat on each other with Tim Curry. Weak, disloyal, fucks.

After hearing the story of how Bonnie acquired the painting today, and knowing that my kid’s girlfriend has been in my garage many times since then and had no doubt seen it just leaning against the wall, I thought I should at least hang it up, so that’s what I did today.

I fumbled my phone and didn’t even realize I had taken a picture, let alone a 9 photo burst. I couldn’t recreate this if I tried.

Is this a bukkake painting, or does my wife just have a dirty mind? Of course, I see it, too, so I guess we both have dirty minds. Do you see it?
