Well you didn’t go to the Playboy mansion for the chicken wings.
You’d goHooters for that
i have trouble thinking of him as a children’s author. dude was an autuer and was not limited to children’s poetry. (my favorite rendition of this song is on the muppets)
Where the butthole ends
He wasn’t a children’s author
Second paragraph
As a children’s author, some of his most acclaimed works include The Giving Tree, Where the Sidewalk Ends, and A Light in the Attic.
The Wilt Chamberlain of literature
If they were of legal age and it was consensual then good for him, I guess? Who cares this much about someone else’s love life? Honestly…
This dude fucks
My low stakes conspiracy is that Shel Silverstein is actually Grigori Rasputin. I have nothing to support this and I will not be accepting criticism.
Shel wasn’t “born” until 1930, so that kinda works.
I was going to say, and Jason Mantzoukas kind of gives me similar IDK i am going to pursue my art across whatever genre it goes FU i am having fun DEAL WITH IT vibes but he was born 25 years too early. also he is a tv/film guy, not a music/poetry guy so the analogy breaks down but if i am ever at an event with him again i am going to have to tell him the thought occurred to me because i think he would like it.
Nice.
In his shoes I’d have done the same.
Lisa of people have sex.
Leave Lisa out of this.
Lisa goes where Lisa wants to go
LISA!
DENTAL PLAN!
You are tearing me apart, Lisa!
Oh hai Shel! How’s your sex life been lately?
He was giving tree. 😏
As Ozzies say, “rooting”
Anyone else breathing a sigh of relief that the childrens author with a overactive libido wasn’t diddling kids?
It’s really just nice that he’s going for their moms.
Or making anti-semitic comments like Roald “The Little Bastards’ll Swallow Anything” Dahl.
If I recall, Dahl was some sort of secret agent for Britain during WW2. So not all that surprising that he’d be a p.o.s.
It would be like a CIA agent writing children’s books.
Roald Dahl was an RAF pilot during the early days of World War II. He got injured and was discharged because of it. I’ve read his autobiography when I was a child, which was quite interesting. Shame that he was anti-semite.
I mean, Julia Child worked for the OSS during WWII and wasn’t a POS (as far as I know).
Christopher Lee was some sort of agent as well. However, joining the Sith, becoming an vampire, and cutting down the forests of Isengard are kinda dick moves.
Was he really that old?
“Wealthy artist had a lot of sex a hundred years ago”
Shocking
What else is there to do in world before social media? Just make art and fuck.
Man, why did we ever invent social media?
A hundred years ago?
It’s just me kidding around. Exaggeration for comedic effect.
I mean, they are wrong because he was writing up until the late 80s/early 90s, but also the man was born almost 100 years ago… and that’s fuckin wild man.
the man was born almost 100 years ago… and that’s fuckin wild man.
That’s just
lovelife. Nothing you can do about that.
Well… So long as it was all consensual…
