[Dave decides to draw a self portrait with the same red ink he's been using to write. He makes his face and hair first, carelessly scribbles in his shades, and when he gets to his body he decides that he doesn't give a shit about anatomy.]

[Wow. That is the shittiest drawing ever. It's cool though, in an ironic sort of way. Dave is completely convinced that this shitty drawing will get him laid. Girls love a guy with a sense of humor.]

no you're looking at it wrong
i keep telling people they're muscles not moobs

Oh I saw the painstaking care with which you drew it. Perhaps adding a bit of chiaroscuro will help your vision communicate itself more clearly.

good point.
a little contrast could spice it up
i've only got one color of ink though
i'll have to pick up some black next time i'm in town.

You don't need a different color to create the illusion of depth, though I suppose it certainly wouldn't hurt anything.

What is your name?

[hollywood_bro]

there's only so much you can do with red ink on paper
another color or two couldn't hurt.

You'll have to get used to it, I'm afraid. Shenanigans seems to be the way of these seas.
