Are they helping a moth smoke a cigarette in the background?

Edit:... Those are pins, aren't they?

I love this artist even though I only understand half of their jokes.

yes, mothra and cirno smoke cigarettes, which is bad for them

Man, I got nothing. Screaming children and gunshots. Not even Venjent can make a song out of that.

I dunno, I mean "song" is a pretty broad term. I'm pretty sure if I'd ever figured out how to work Fruity Loops I could probably prove you wrong there. As long as you're not expecting anything you'd enjoy listening to.

I'm leaning hard on that last bit.

Man, our musical tastes couldn't be more different. We should start a reality TV show together

I love the tired droopy eyes that comes from decades of staring at bad code.

Not good code, never good code. Good code you glance at once and it makes your heart sing.

No, bad code keeps you up at night, staring into the void between the whitespace until you can make out the subpixel colouring of your own sad reflection gazing recursively in upon itself broken only by the jagged stack limit threshold of the hateful morning sun casting a bad enough glare for you to hiss under the covers for a brief respite before you repeat the same process again.

Can confirm. Source: I write bad code.
