"Proof" and "Stapler": This Fuckin' Guy Links to Some Old Fucking Videos For Throwback Thursday.

Proof
I am fucking aware
That at least once, and maybe more than once
I have asked, rhetorically,
"What the fuck do I have to fucking prove?"
But clearly,
I was being fucking disingenuous.

Because when I was watching NY1 this morning
(Yes, I  still fucking subscribe
To Time Warner Motherfucking Cable.
Yes, I'm a fucking sucker. Fuck you.),
And when the fucking story came on
About the motherfuckers citibiking into work this morning
In the goddamn heavy motherfucking rain,
I was like "Fuck you. It's on."

I was already fucking smarting
("Smarting?" What the fuck kind of word is "smarting"?)
From having someone sing "Wuss" to me last night
Because I wouldn't take a bike home
From Carnegie Fucking Hall.

Which, for the fucking record,
Would have been a fucking disaster:
I got soaked just walking three fucking blocks
From the fucking Broadway/Lafayette
F train fucking station,
Even though I fucking had
A huge motherfucking umbrella.

And never fucking mind
That yesterday
I Citifuckingbiked from Broad and Bridge
To motherfucking Broadway and 58th
In under half a fucking hour.
(Nine fucking seconds under, but still. Fuck.)

Now, I fucking admit
That the fucking Broad & Bridge to Broadway & 58th run
I made yesterday
Is not like making the fucking Kessel Run
In under 12 parsecs. (Or maybe it fucking is.
I don't fucking know how long the Kessel Run is,
Or how much a parsec is, or any of that shit.)

But fucking still:
I'm an old motherfucker.
And those motherfucking bikes
Are not easy to fucking pedal,
Okay? Fuck you.

So I rode that motherfucking bike this morning,
Singing loud the whole fucking way,
(A curious fucking mix:
"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood,"
Then Petty's "You Don't Know How it Feels" (love that fucking video) and
Fucking "You're So Bad,"
And then fucking "Funkytown"),

Acting like I have nothing to prove,
Even though I clearly fucking do.
Although to what, and to who,
I don't fucking know.

Or maybe I should just fucking say it
Before someone else fucking does:
Midlife motherfucking crisis, am I right?
Of course I'm fucking right.

Stapler
This morning, before I fucking left for work
Somebody I don't even fucking know,
Fucking messaged me,
Asking if I could take
One of those industrial motherfucking staplers
From work for her:
"It would look great in my apartment,"
She fucking said,
Quoting Take Stuff From Work.
(Love that fucking video too:
JFK Fucking Nitzberg; check out his
Excellent, fucked up doc, when you
Get a fucking chance.)

Now I'm as susceptible to flattery
As the next motherfucker --
Maybe more so.
And having my shit
Quoted back to me
By two different people
In two consecutive motherfucking days
Is really fucking nice.

But no, Chloe,
I'm not taking a stapler from work for you:
It's just not the fucking same
If you don't take it yourself
From your own fucking job.

And besides,
These fucking days.
I don't take stuff from work
So much as fucking leave it there:
I've got like 50 fucking books
Two or three hundred fucking CDs,
Some fucking DVDs,
Just a shitload of shit
I don't have any fucking room for at home.

Leave stuff at work, I say:
Why get a storage space?
Why get a bigger fucking apartment?
Why throw shit away?
Leave it at work!

I'm a fucking idiot.
I should shut the fuck up.
I even have a fucking storage space.

The fucking point is,
Thank you for the fucking inspiration, Chloe,
But no motherfucking stapler for you.

"Points": This Fuckin' Guy Gets Some Fucking Points.

Points As those of you motherfuckers Who were reading This Fuckin' Blog last year (Or who heard this ) Already fucking know, I like Citibike: I used to have to buy motherfucking monthly transit cards From the motherfucking MTA Every motherfucking month And I fucking hate the motherfucking MTA. Citibike has saved me a shitload of money That would otherwise go to the pieces of shit At the fucking MTA So yeah, I fucking like Citibike. If I had to name the worst fucking thing About Citibike I guess I'd say that sometimes There's no fucking bikes And you have to walk to another fucking docking station And sometimes There's no room to dock your bike So you have to ride to another station to dock your fucking bike But that's really no big deal It's only occasionally a pain in the ass. But, so then, I get an email from Citibike a couple of  months ago, About this new fucking program Where you get points If you take a fucking bike from a to

"Trump II: Speech" and "Retrospect": This Fuckin' Guy Reflects.

Trump II: Speech* Jesus fucking cocks How do you like the balls on this motherfucking piece of shit? Make the bar so fucking low That that shit looks statesmanlike? That that shit looks good? Fuck that shit And fuck you. But I will say one fucking thing: It's a fucking shame that no Democrat since probably LBJ Would even fucking think of proposing A trillion fucking dollars on infrastructure And I will say fuck yes to that. I will give credit when credit is due Like what that piece of shit Bush did in Africa: A lot of fucking money to fight AIDS, malaria, and other fucked up shit over there Whereas that fuck Reagan took five fucking years to even say the fucking word "AIDS." That piece of shit ratbastard fuck. So fuck yes to Bush fighting AIDS, malaria, and other fucked up shit in Africa And fuck yes to proposing a trillion dollars for infrastructure Even if it never fucking happ‎ens It's a nice fucking gesture It's a lovely fucking gestu‎re So fuck yes I

"Loss."

Loss Two fucking years ago A month or two after Citibike fucking started up I was like, fucking hell, I hardly ever ride the fucking subway anymore So I stopped getting the monthly fucking unlimited fucking Metrocard And got a pay per fucking ride And I hardly ever fucking paid for a fucking subway ride: For fucking months I'd get on a fucking bike each morning And I'd be like, hey I'm fucking saving money And after a couple of months, Let me fucking tell you, I was the fastest motherfucking Citbike riding motherfucker On the motherfucking bike path Along the fucking Hudson Going south in the morning. Not the fastest fucking bike rider -- There were always some fucking Lycrafucks Who would pass my ass (see " Bike "; the second to last Motherfucking poem I wrote on August 30th of last fucking year; Or hear "Bike,"  here ; I think it's the second fucking track). But never fucking ever did a motherfucker on another Citibike Ever f
