  1. I suggest that the art critic be replaced with the contents that forgotten container in the back of the refrigerator, the one that you think might be the remains of an of egg foo yung dinner from mid-February but you can’t stand getting close enough to tell.

  3. …sure buddy…if you can afford to buy it at market price, afford to demolish it yourself, and afford to build your “Art Project” in it’s place, go for it, the President’s a good capitalist and will appreciate the sale at a profit…

    …also, you gonna pay the taces and insurance on your Orange Man Bad tower? Make up for ALL the lost income to the City for ALL the people and businesses that operate there NOW?

    CAN you?

    Yeah, that’s what I THOUGHT…
