Why worry, Orli? You're married to Shalom. How more nonconformist can one be? (I wasn't really born over a candystore in Brooklyn, I was just growing up there).
so, Orli referring to the Village's yearly art show, I recall living on 9th Street & University Place and coming down the brownstone's steps being blinded by the crowd of canvases(asses?) lining the street and feeling pure anger that my turf had been compromised. That anger had little to do with anti-conformism and lots to do with being an American perturbed at her space being occupied.
I must not be a true nonconformist because I break out in random fits of positivity and enthusiasm. Ah well. I'll just keep wearing my pentagram and let people think I'm nonconformist. 😎😉
Walk down any high school hallway - today or any day, to see the truth of her last line. It is so comical how 17-year-olds cannot see themselves . Thanks, Orli, for sharing this delightful book.

Thank you. OMG. Shalom knows his audience.
Fabulous! Thank you for sharing!!
"I don’t make anything this good."
Sounds like you are a true non-conformist!
Definitely nice and funny! But your work is at least as funny, so keep at it!

What a wonderful little book. Thank you so so much for sharing.
Yes, eternally true! And the author is brilliant. After flirting with that lifestyle for years, my motto became "Resist Hipster Conformity".
Thank you thank you thank you for sharing it all! Thanks to the magic of cognitive dissonance I LOVE IT and hate it for how insecure it makes my feel🤨
I will try to find a copy and place it next to my favorite cartoony illustrated book, "I FEEL BAD". Yeah, that's what I'll do.
I do need someone to keep it alive after I'm dead. So, thank you, I appreciate it!
OMG - so true. Eternally.
Thank you for sharing the whole thing.🙏🏻
That's great. It's still true today.

She's right about bands....
Here's to a sane(r) space for us all in the New Year. I want to be grateful, not angry; and want to laugh more than weep.
I'm with you on both sister. Happy New Year.
