The photo is of me.
The cigarette is probably a Benson & Hedges Gold or a Camel (Original) given my preference for these brands. However the photo is from a club night, so the cigarette could have come from anywhere.
The t-shirt is from a uniqlo store in causeway bay in hong-kong. It is a ‘unique’ item in that only a handful of copies of this print were made. The Sketch was by some Japanese dude with a massive afro. His photo was on the price tag. The tee cost about five pounds.
Uniqlo are a superb company providing exceptional quality given their standard price range.
This is the best photo I could find on facebook.

Non-fiction / Why Men Need Crossbars and Women Don't.
Version 1
0 Reviews   0 Comments
Men, admittedly not this one but I'm stereotyping (as opposed to monotyping, which I do when I'm smoking), are addicted to danger. Obvoiously a crossbar is about as dangerous as yakult. But if you run a red because you're late for class and end up spending double latin with matron's freshest icepack slowly melting though your slacks, you realise testing one's mettle on a bike requires and threatens the most grotesquely swollen cojones. At the same time the structural advantages of a crossbar ...

The Ferryman   'So then, this is an introduction I'm not sure I should I be making. 'But it's not going to be much of an introduction I'm afraid, since I won't be compicating things with my name. And what's an introduction without names exchanged eh? 'Our purpose today is better served by an acquaintance with my job than myself. 'Joshua is a fisherman isn't pelasant phrase - surely the man does something other than fish. He is a man, oftentimes perhaps to be caught fishing, but a man lov...

Humor/Satire / White Swans
Version 1

There is a pack of Swan ‘Extra Slim’ filter tips on her desk. Which is chestnut. Once it was used to write letters. At the lip the varnish is worn from the press of forearms writing. These patches show wood. Though dark some angles in some lights show golden. I know, now, she is blonde. Now we strip the varnish with ourselves. The dry brittle film fractures into our skin. Underneath the wood is warm. One stick of filters tips has rolled under her. Her skin rocks, over and back, ab...

Flash Fiction / A remedial exculpation
Version 1
11 Reviews   11 Comments
I saw today that newgrounds has been approved by the chinese government as acceptable for it's people to view. This remedial exculpation left a brief euphoria in it's wake. Not because I relished the invocation of franchise and it wasn't a three cheers for china kind of thing. Nor was it an ecstatic empathy for the three hundred million chinese who finally enjoy 'Everything, by Everyone' and the ensuing deluge of home brew flash. Humans can make rotgut moonshine from anything, certainly...

Novel Treatments / Prologue
by TerJa
Well I'm interested, but mainly because I want to know if this is actually the author's premise, not just the story's. Honestly I can't discern a specific hook. There's a lot of images and themes (mainly nostalgia and romance, which are - and this is v good - suggested and effectively in play from the first 'my life started...', I imagine if this was published that would be a candidate for tagline) that I'm semi-enticed by. A hook leaves you wanting conclusion and information and satisfaction...
Novel Treatments / Kye's Story of The Beast
by Kye
'praise and tenderness', tender praise might work, but. She's surprised because nobody ever has these two specific concepts shining out of their face. Also I think 'that key held her breath' is a typo? From what little I can read of the standard prose, I'd say there's a fairly developed and efficient fantasy style on display. 'forgive me this once if I can't speak it well' For some tribal cultures (and, I think, the sandpeople in Star Wars) story-telling traditions are too important to be lef...

Poetry / 1st And Last Precinct
by jebozid
Cool i like this, whcich is rare on urbis. Especially the first stanza, which is superb. Don't know what's going on in with 'freedom labs' and their virus, please explain Also not familiar with precincts, being a brit. What is the significance of the 'first and last precincts'? I hope this will improve my understanding of the poems meaning, since atm it's a love story (first two stanza's) that suddenly takes a dramatic hit when she dies. I'd be considerably happier if the device used to bridg...

Sci Fi & Fantasy / Plane Jumper
by urbanrenewal
'flicker, more affectionately known as flick to his friends' - totally unnecessary cutesy cheese, if the narrator calls him flicker but other characters call him flick it's pretty clear what's going on. Plus 'affection' in friendship is either too pre-school or too deep for most stories; here it's the former and we start thinking it's a kids book far too soon. 'which seemed to drip', either it was dripping or it wasn't, and seeing as it corrodes the floor it clearly DOES drip, none of this 's...
