Am usually happy whenever one my designs gets printed, featured or makes an appearance somewhere. But today the story was a bit different. Early in the morning I got this call to tell me that my ad finally made the newsstands. Shortly before hanging the call, the person at the other side tells me... "there's just a little thing that didn't quite match your original design, please have a look at it and tell me what do you think". I start wondering what exactly meant "didn't quite match".

I get myself in the move and direct my -admittedly eager self- to the nearest stand. Sorry, no luck. Go to the next one but luck is still rearing his ugly face to me. I decide to go to a bigger outlet and there you have it. I lift the mag, turned it around and discover to my dismay that my beautifully yellow ad has turned itself into a pale brown shit of sorts!!!

I keep looking in dismay trying to find out what it was that went so awfully wrong with this. Can't understand. I phone the guy in charge of getting this to print but the m*fckr is out of town. I ring the cafe owner to tell her my take on it and she's with me, my design looks awful this way. Guess I'll have to crack the skull of this guy wide open whenever I get to see him. Am pissed!

I hate when people do stupid things like this. If I or the person paying for this ad meant it to be brown, I will have done it so. But neither of us asked for it, why in the f***king world do you do something like this?

Ok, that's it. Sorry for the rant!
