The Best Thing You Ever Gave Me

The best thing you ever gave me,

Was a reason to hate.

The best thing you ever left me,

Was your absence.

The best thing I ever got from you

Was a reason to scream.

This is the best Christmas ever.

  You reminded me how to feel

The only thing I can enjoy

The only reason to live

Is my reason to destroy.

You reminded me how to feel.

Now I can enjoy this pain,

The things that drive me insane.

30 whacks on my back can’t explain

Just how I feel.

  These scars tell a story

That my mouth couldn’t tell.

These knives seen the real me

And that belt made me shudder more

Than my disgust for you.

  My room looks like your soul

Needles cover the floor

I don’t care, ignore the blood

Ignore this flood,

You did it before.

You made me feel.

What I thought was never real.

The optimist is dead.

Long live the realist.

It’s the greatest thing you could have ever given me.

R.I.P. Ricky Garduno

I didn't find out 'til now and of course I feel horrible about it. For those of you who are wondering who this guy is, he helped make many shows possible and awesome. He was a storyboard artist for many cartoons, such as Mucha Lucha, El Tigre, Family Guy, and so much more. As a typical jerk, I didn't pay much attention to credits for cartoons and the like. I knew him from his series on dummcomics.com called "1930s Nightmare Theater." It was dark but fun with a Max Fleischer-ish visual feel. I read it whenever it would update and it would bring a smile to my face.

I was also lucky enough to have him as a friend on facebook. We didn't talk much, but I felt honored to have him on my friend list. It was like having an idol right there on your dashboard. I loved seeing his posts, ranging from Francis Bacon the Pig Puppet and the random cat pictures that would pop up now and again to his philosophies.

When he quit working on Nightmare Theater on dummcomics, I actually stopped going to the site for a bit, despite the other wonderful titles. I was too sad that Nightmare Theater was gone.

Now he's gone.

I respected him and his work and, though I cannot say anything deep or beautiful the way his closest friends could, I just wanted to say I'll miss him. I regret not trying to talk to him or reach out to him. He was an amazing person. I wish I could have been able to tell him, while he was alive, how his stuff would brighten up my days whenever I felt down. I wish I could have been able to tell him how amazing he was. He's... fuck, what does one say? What can one say? I don't know the guy that well and feel like I need to say something profound, but can't. I guess I'll say this--

We love you, Ricky. We'll miss you and your fantastic ideas.
