    He told pretty girls he could read palms, then he’d work his way up from there.

    I guess it’s okay to take a day off, but how hard is it to rip off some dead artist’s work, add a snarky caption, and publish it as your own creative work?

    Do you have a legal team to ensure the art is public-domain? Or do you just wait for Disney lawyers to come after you if a Bambi-like image appears? :-)
