Description
Today's incredible guest artist goes by Edi, and if I was the religious sort, I think he'd be my Pope. We've had a lot of talented artists work with us, but none more talented than him. I just love those lines. Damn. We're lucky to have him. To see more of his work, check out his deviantArt page.
I have a love-hate relationship with TV. It Rescues Me and Lies to Me. It Psyches me out. But I'm LOST. Karl Marx said that religion is the opiate of the masses, and Michael Franti said television is the drug of the nation. Through the transitive property of equality, that means television is religion. And it is, man. It really is. The Book of Judges has been replaced by Law & Order. Our tithes have been replaced with Netflix or cable bills. Churches have been replaced by Castle. Angels have been replaced with Angel--as in Buffy's boy toy. American Idol is our Golden Calf. And I'm not sure I object.
Be good. I'm off to watch West Wing.

Hmm, come to think of it, I've had this idea myself before... I have odd rituals I perform when watching certain shows, hidden conduct I expect people to obey when watching it with me, and I keep the memories and lessons of TV close to my heart... TV (or at least certain series) are my religion.
