Hi, I’d Like To Add You
ADB-160310#147


I totally stole this joke from Frank Chimero. He blithely suggested that this caption could be applied universally to all New Yorker cartoons. But it almost works with anything. I also didn’t steal this joke. It’s already out in the world. It’s a remix, it’s a mash-up, it’s a meme! Besides, artists have been stealing stuff for years, just ask Austin Kleon.
Just for fun, copy the image below and add your own caption. Put it in the comments below.
