He looks like what Andrew Tate is trying to go for (but failing miserably at).
Andrew Tate looks like someone tried to draw Pitbull from memory.
You almost caused a spit-take, over here. No shit.
That is such a mean thing to say… about Pitbull.
This guy didn’t have to rape or traffic to get laid.
I actually started to say THIS EXACT SAME SENTENCE, in the meme. I’m not shitting you.
I typed it and deleted it twice, eventually deciding “ehhh, maybe not everyone will see that, and I kinda don’t even want to type their names in the same paragraph.”
But yeah, it’s absolutely the truth. Silverstein had real masculinity, in a way that the current “alpha male” crowd could never hold the slightest hope of attaining.
But, ya know, they’d probably call him gay, the second they found out he wrote poetry. As if there’s anything wrong with being gay, goddamn. Society is backsliding at warp fucking speed.
You made the right call. Someone else needed to say it.
Also, he wrote the lyrics to Johnny Cash’s hit song, A Boy Named Sue.
And many of Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show hits, including The Cover of the Rolling Stone, and I got Stoned and I Missed It.

Fuck. That. Book. It barely even teaches a lesson, it just makes you feel bad!
You. Have. Zero. Depth.
I suppose I’ve always thought Shel Silverstein was a woman. TIL
Shel also wrote lyrics for the band Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Specifically, I know he has writing credits on The Cover of Rolling Stone.
He also wrote “A boy named Sue” made famous by Johnny Cash
I knew he got drafted but I didn’t know Silverstein made it to Colonel!
CPT Willard: They told me that you had gone totally insane, and that your methods were unsound.
COL Kurtz: Are my methods unsound?
CPT Willard: I don’t see any method at all, sir.
This is Pablo Neruda, one of the greatest romantic poets of all time. Women fell all over him.

I am familar with the works of Pablo Neruda.
I had never looked up a picture of him but idk why I expected any better.
Have you read his poetry? There’s a reason he got hella laid. I’ve gotten laid off his poetry.
But also he has some accusations of sexual impropriety against him to a degree that there have been feminist pushes to rename stuff that was named after him.
X is for xylophone. Because X is always for xylophone.
I think G might be for Gräfenberg, tho.
The same picture is used on the inside/outside of some of his books for children. It’s a jump scare every so often where one gets left open or with the back pointing up.

He is very not good looking
Yeah it turns out moms are into poets that understand kids
