i have an incredibly hard time believing the fact that the phrase “i will face god and walk backwards into hell” was created by dril and not taken from some 16th century literary epic
Alright, I had to do some research on it to confirm
The original dril tweet was posted in May 2012
And Google Trends indicates that this is a rarely searched term, and never searched before the dril tweet
This would seem to indicate that this iconic phrase did, in fact, originate with dril and not beforehand, and I think that’s beautiful because future generations will learn about this literary masterpiece that came from Twitter
a darkened auditorium with 264 silent people in the seats. on the stage, me, sitting on a stool, lit by a spotlight, the only light in the theatre. i hold up a photo of my cat, 10 people applaud, two or three hold up photocopies of the same photo, the rest do nothing, watching, waiting.
