    I know a glass blower that insists on referring to himself in the third person. It's extremely annoying.

    I tell people I melt stuff for fun and profit. It doesn't always avoid the Chihuly conversation (which bores me too) but it gives me the opportunity to say "Oh, no, I do it the hard way - with a torch" which, if not exactly true, firmly distinguishes the difference. Of course then they want pipes, of which I've made exactly 3 that did not end up in the "I made this and only keep it so I can laugh at myself later" box.

    no one asks me. They just assume that because I'm dressed this way, I am a man whore. Several notes have been passed to me at the local Mcdonalds.

    I usually just say that I blow for money, and the expression on their face tells me how to proceed.
    Never explain yourself... your friends don't need it and your enemies won't believe you anyway.

    I had someone tell me that glassblowers aren't artists

    which I could really care less about, I don't spark up my torch looking to change the world, just looking to change my bankroll

    Still i couldn't help but respond "and dj's don't make music, i know..."

    I think Pyro is a good option, ever since I sparked up a minor i've drooled every time I've seen a mag sized flame



    Bug zapper, that is classic. I had forgotten a banana peel in my garbage the other day and I had some real fun chasing flys around with my national

    I can't even wait to read this shit and I know it's old ass shit but if u work with liquid glass u have to know who Chihuli is (prob spelled wrong tho) rump4skin I'm sure by now u know and respect his work beastmaster u sound like a big fan of his and so am I but, a lot of his fame is just due to his marketing and he is a master of that as well as his glass but he is not the best in my opinion there is always better around the corner.
    PS I'm not trying to talk shit on Chihuli cuz shit he is so cool even my iPhone knows how to spell his name.(-:
