Get Drunk (slurpee edit)


One should always be drinking slurpees. That’s the great thing; the only question. Not to feel the horrible burden of Time weighing on your shoulders and bowing you to the earth, you should be drinking slurpees without respite.

Drunk with what? With slurpees, dummy.

And if sometimes you should happen to awake, on the stairs of a palace, on the green grass of a ditch, in the dreary solitude of your own room, and find that your drunkenness is ebbing or has vanished, ask the wind and the wave, ask star, bird, or clock, ask everything that flies, everything that moans, everything that flows, everything that sings, everything that speaks, ask them the time; and the wind, the wave, the star, the bird and the clock will all reply: “It is Time to drink more slurpees! If you are not to be the martyred slaves of Time, be perpetually drunk! With slurpees!

-Baudelaire (and Kindschy)
