Occasion: his birthday
"Do you take requests?"
Adam gave me a challenge for his birthday card this year, asking me to make him the most morbid birthday card I could muster. A variation of this popped up into my head almost immediately, and after researching some nihilistic quotes about death I landed on this gem by Edward Young: "Our birth is nothing but our death begun." Toss in a grim reaper holding a birthday cake and--voila!--a Debbie Dots first in morbidity. Adam is a great guy and I hope this year is full of adventure and interesting challenges.
