It’s like a 1000 piece puzzle, but there’s no way of knowing what it looks like until you put the final piece in. You get the border, so you have a frame, sort of understand what’s going on. Then you put together three or four different sections that all look exactly the same but are on different ends of the picture. And they’re hilarious but sad but also hilarious. You figure all those out, and then you’re onto the next section, but now it’s kind of circling the middle, seemingly all by itself, unrelated, but you just know; it even sort of references the other sections you’ve done, but doesn’t really tell you how, and right in the center of it is a huge blank. It goes this way until you are down to the last fifty pieces, and not only do they go together easily because they make a lot of sense, but now everything else makes a lot of sense. You throw the final piece in, and you finally know the secret; there’s nothing left to do but sit back and look at it, but the only thing you can think of to to say or think or feel is “fuck.”
