Dear Ray-Ban, please knock it off. I am so tortuously sick of your NEVER HIDE campaign that I will probably be forced to vomit and defecate all over your posters the next time I am accosted by their not so ironically hip retro 80′s inspired mediocrity. Every corner in Austin has, on average, four hundred and eighty nine thousand (you think I am exaggerating, but you’d be wrong; I spent the time to count, and there is exactly four hundred and eighty nine thousand) of these shit placards littering the walls and generally disrupting everyone’s sense of well [...]

New site design, as promised. Let me know what you think. New content will start flowing  in the morning (it’s 2:47am, time for sleep).

Good news! TOUCHPUPPET is coming back from it’s prolonged hiatus. We will have an entirely new site design and a whole lot of new stuff coming soon.
As for the haitus, I must apologize for that. I have been caught up in school and life outside the internet for awhile but I am now able to start operating TPUP again. Yippy!
