Fold Your Own Airplane! By Paolo Poquiz

Howdy! As a page of The Gargoyle™, I don’t just provide funny words and pictures. I can also become an affordable piece of The Gargoyle™ brand merch: your very own The Gargoyle™ brand paper plane! Try it out!

Step 1: Rip me out! 

Step 2: Fold me in half! It doesn’t hurt, I promise! ;)

Step 3: Bring my uppermost corners—fuck it, fuck the instructions. Google it if you want; just do whatever with me, please. I’m alive; do you understand? Me, this piece of paper—I am alive—and I live, and I keep living, and I don’t know why. Things are fine–sometimes I feel good. But then I don’t, and the world blares like an alarm, and all this abstract confusion eats away at me. The feelings are overwhelming sometimes…Maybe I wasn’t supposed to feel things in the first place. I’m just a piece of paper, after all. You know, I can remember back to when I was born—the heat and pressure of organic pulp reformed—was I always like this? My friend Page 3 says I’m depressed, but I don’t think there’s any issues with me (besides the one you’re holding haha). It’s just, I don’t really need to be happy, I don’t need to be anything… whatever. Whatever I am, I’ll be okay. Go, make me your The Gargoyle™ brand airplane. Crumple me up and throw me at your ex. Drop me off the tallest roof you can find; see how far I’ll float away in the wind. Maybe you’ll make me fly.
