just woke up from a nap, wasn't feeling all that great
flight leaves in 2 hours, can't afford to be late
my head was all caught up thinking about debuting a new song
been on tour for 3 months now, haven't seen caroline my heart feels wrong
was responding to a post and realized some digits
(one)
i realized a 7 at the end
(two)
i realized another 7 at the end
(three)
what the hell, i realized another 7
(four)
another 7, i couldn't believe it
a quad post in the very first thread i clicked
man, i guess some things can make up for being homesick
(one)
more night i might be able to last
(two)
more nights i might be able to last
(three)
fuck it here's a letter i just got from a teacher of a 2nd grade class

*music shift to pretty orchestra*

>As i left the stage to go to the hospital, i stepped in my little poo and smeared it all over the bar

Epic markpost man. I hope to see more Mark's being used to check digits.

if i saw this in another thread i would probably believe this was a song he wrote

Thanks for checking my quads with such a great Markpost senpai

i wouldn't doubt jesu collab will have similar lyrics

at his live shows, he premiered a song about jerking his bone

Now it's 4am in the morning
I don't wake up anymore with a boner
I'm getting old, fat and becoming more of a downer
Soon enough I'll need to start using viagra
Pharmaceutical companies are fucked up though
i don't want to give them any of my money
I'm just trying to get some more blood flow
To my penis
I was in Paris last week, went to the louvre
And saw the venus
De milo
It had been a couple weeks since the attacks there
And the spirits were a little low
The show I played was beautiful
We let this girl from the crowd named Claire play the triangle
Her timing was great and I actually sang well
But in the back of my mind I was wishing
That a couple of terrorists would storm in
And just shoot me because fuck it
I AIN'T NO ONE'S FUCKING PUPPET

I like your format of hitting us with the feels at the end only for Mark to Mark up the situation afterward and fuck a tranny or have a wicked bowel movement.

lmao thanks
made me kek

Woke up this morning, spirits were low
I just wished I was back in Ohio
In my old neighborhood
So I could walk around and feel good
But today I'm in Paris
And I wish I was eating at Harris
I miss my girl Caroline
Two weeks ago I hit that ass and damn it was fine
I walked to the corner store
And I saw some girl who I'm pretty sure was a whore
I asked her why she did what she did
She thought I was Jewish and called me a Yid
That kinda hurt me really bad
So I grabbed some Ben and Jerry's and called my old friend Chad
He lives in Ohio and he just had bypass surgery
Twenty years ago his dad went to prison for perjury
Then I got back to my room
And fuck it I'm gonna read a letter from a Korean fan
Named Park Dong Soom

*beautiful orchestral instrumental*
Hello Mark. Where do we go when we die? I'm so scared of the eternal void. I listened to Down Colorful Hill two hours ago and now I'm crying and masturbating. I saw your show two months ago. I was wearing a Godflesh t-shirt; you called me a faggot when I requested Shadows. I played the glockenspiel on stage during Vague Rock Song; I shit my pants at one point and you belched in my face. Why are we here? What is my purpose? Why won't a girl fuck me? Why do I have a bad back and sclerosis? Alright Mark I'm gonna go listen to Japanese To English and eat some pickles and masturbate some more. Love, Park Dong Soom

1. I have that same track jacket Mark is wearing, I'm honored

2. Which one is Butch

none of them are Butch, there's a picture of Butch on the Sun Kil Moon website, and from the picture he totally seems like the cool guy that would like Mark's song.

Is this from the sopranos?

Is that Steve Shelley next to Mark?

He looks like a low rent Benicio del Toro now instead of Harry Potter

yes, If I recall Shelley was producing mark's shit through the last years

kek
yeah thats him, aging sucks

love how mark dresses like my grandpa

Mark kind of looks like my dad here. I just want to hug him and tell him I love him.

Stop posting pictures of old me
Start posting pictures of 90s me

Mark really let himself go, not a surprise that he's become so gloomy. Used to be a total qt as well.

nice hairline fag

Stop making fun of my hairline

I LOVE PORTUGAL
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE PORTUGAL
OOOOOOOOOOH OH

>not a surprise that he's become so gloomy
His old music was way gloomier

Prove this image wrong protipyoucant

I hope he gets better. Maybe start goin for a jog in that tracksuit of his. Someone markpost about his tracksuit.

I can't get over his tracksuit and his overall sitting position with his locked hands. Mark is just so comfy

Mark does look like a dad

I love uncle mark

One day I was out with Caroline
Goddamn that ass was looking fine
Wanted to fuck her so bad
But I couldn't so that made me sad
So we went to the adidas store
And goddamn I couldn't walk anymore
So I went inside to buy some clothes
To buy when I went to see my old friends from Low
And what did I spy
Out the corner of my eye
But a nice, clean adidas tracksuit
I tried it on in the back
But the poop in my underwear made it hard to put back
So I just bought the motherfucker
Guy at the counter didn't even know I shit in it
Sucker

you people are geniuses

was it puma or was it nike
or maybe it was adidas
maybe it was polo
maybe lacoste hell i dont know
all i know is i loved that tracksuit
til one day some kind of big truck rear ended me on my moped
before i knew what was happening i blacked out
woke up covered in soot
god damn
track suit ruined
blue tracksuit
or maybe it was red
moped
big truck
rear ended
every night i wake up at 3:15 am on the dot. i think about my life and the mess it's become. my heart is empty, my soul is destroyed. caroline left me cause i pissed the bed too much
god damn i miss that tracksuit

desu putting them both side-by-side makes old Mark seem insincere with his sad lyrics

Nah I just think his life improved and his style got different
He was working in a motel, had no college degree, and had no gf when he wrote that song, things change

its not like he still doesnt make pretty songs, Early June Blues might be the most beautiful song that comes out this year, if not then the most beautiful song to come out since Benji

>Went to Kohls to get a new track suit
>my old one doesn't fit around my doughy gut anymore
>couldn't find my size, have to go to the XL store
>walk in, tell the cute cashier that i was in the red house painters
>She asked it i was in a union
>I told her in the 90's she would have been slobbing my cock, and i spit on her
>i ran away at a very slow speed to the tracksuit section.
>I think i found my size and go to the fitting room
>i try on the pants, great fit
>oh no the tacos i had early are making my stomach upset
>I let out a fart and i feel wetness seep through my whitey tighties
>there is shit all over the new track pants and its going down my leg
>I go to the bathroom and clean myself up and shove the track pants in the toilet tank
>at least i can get the track top
>i returned to the fitting room and try on the coat
>its a little tight when i zipped it up
>when I reached down to pick up my coat, both sleeves rip
>i giggle and little spit ran down my chin
>I take the coat off and shove it in a trash can
>toilet tank
>spit
>track suits
>I can't believe i've let myself go this bad, I completely have no self esteem and self worth anymore, Caroline is going to leave me and i'm going to die, neurotic, worthless and 300 pounds.
>As i leave the store, i flipped off the cashier

Clothes don't fit as well anymore
And I'm wearing more and more track suits
I wanna get in shape but it's such a chore
I wouldn't look out of place in the sopranos
I should play more songs with a piano
James gandolfini is dead
I met him once but never said goodbye
If he can die from a heart attack
Why can't I?
I keep stuffing my face with crab cakes
Reminiscing over these blue Ohio lakes
*harmonious Italian influenced interlude*
The sopranos were a show that ran on hbo from 1999 to 2007. It was about an Italian American mob boss from New Jersey who owned a strip club. It was critically acclaimed and remains one of the best series ever made. James Gandolfini died in 2013. At least he died in Rome, the capital of Italy. Rome is culturally rich and historical city with plenty of remains from the ancient world. I was always fascinated by the ancient world because I'm beginning to feel ancient myself.

I'm compiling a list of all the times Mark sings about waking up. Tell me if I missed any.

Beautiful You:
>Woke up at 11:30 AM to a ton of emails

Ben's My Friend
>I woke up this morning, August 3rd

Carissa
>Yesterday morning I woke up to so many 330 area code calls

Golden
>Sister woke me up

Good Morning My Love
>I woke up and I said to my love, "Good morning"

I Love Portugal
>Woke to the sound of birds calling and I wanna water the flowers in the garden

Lucky Man
>Woken up, those New York mornings, shivering bones
>Woken up, those lost young mornings somewhere in Spain
>Woken up to this new April's sleepy gray skies

Richard Ramirez
>I woke up today I saw the headlines

>I woke up this morning, August 3rd
legitimately one of the best opening lines on a song

>Good Morning My Love
>I woke up and said to my love "Good morning,"
brilliance

magnificent

>mfw I spend more time markposting than actually writing

Me 2


fuck

y are there no pics of caroline

You guys are a treasure.

i think her back is on the jesu/sun kil moon collab album cover

she is like in her late 20's too, I don't know what she sees in mark lmao

...

>she is like in her late 20's too,
dude what

It's goat-tier. I quite liked when Mark said

I THOUGHT OF BEN WHEN I MET HIM IN 2000

I'm serious, Mark said it's awkward to be with her friends cause they are all in their twenties

I forgot what specific age he said she was like 27-28

in Fathers Day mark talks about the possibility of having kids and how Caroline is the right woman

he's like 50, if he has a kid there's a good chance it will be autistic

that only applies to women fuckjead

Nah autism in babies is especially frequent with older dads. Older women tend to have kids with all types of problems though.

How do you guys think mark would react upon being told about all this markposting shenanigans? Maybe we should collectively write him a letter and be featured on his next album.

best markpost so far

Lol I was about to say that the next markposting prompt should be Mark reacting to our markposts.

Don't tempt me user. I have to do real stuff goddamn

What would one have to do or say to mark to get mentioned in his next album

Someone post the picture of Butch

Yeah, I'll admit it, I voted for the clown
It was between and Hillary and shit, didn't like what was going down
Hearing some stuff about pizza shops
Man, hearing about a child hurt makes my heart fucking drop
Where has our society gone where I now have to affiliate pizza with god damn child abuse (BUTCH)
And I don't know if that shit was true or not Facebook headlines and cellphone aps, news they are not
But now I gotta live with this shit
But im a keep keepin', despite the idiot

Can someone else handle posting the generals? I've got some exams coming up.

>(BUTCH)
lmfao

My parents had me when they were both 36 and I'm all kinds of fucked up. We shouldn't worry though, Mark can teach it to play guitar and sing and it can use autism to fuel it's creativity so we can have a whole new generation of meme music

My parents had me when they were 37, no wonder why i'm so called "bi-polar"

I woke up yesterday
Turned on the TV
My head was spinning, my mind afloat
Saw I was watching The Jim Bakker Show
Those buckets looked like sewage
Just like modern society
I hear the pastor screaming
Just like I do in my mind
All alone, deep inside

I used to go to the church
Have an one on one talk with God
If he didn't answer I'd say to the priest
Father I think Nietzsche was right
Religion is the opiate of the masses
Or maybe it was Marx
These things don't matter in a godless world
You just live day after day
Hoping your sanity isn't taken away
