Please scroll down for Sunday Stealing



Chinese people in Thailand are celebrating chinese new year this week. This is how the exterior of Siam Paragon looks like:

Sunday Stealing: The Clown's Meme 1

Please scroll up for Our Weekend Memoirs



Today we ripped this meme off blogger named Boppo from the blog Boppo the Clown's Journal. He states that he grabbed it at Drgncrystlwkr. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. It is a long meme, so we will do it in parts. Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

What spirit is so empty and blind that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot is more noble than the shoe, and skin more beautiful than the garment with which it is clothed? - Michelangelo  Why is the Mom in this family picture smiling?
