One would think so, right? I can do weird all by myself, my man. I get accused of that a lot, though. No finer compliment.

Oh, man. It's really dumb, so I'll try and give you the short version. Essentially, the cartoon "Rick and Morty" created an absurd phenomenon by having the main character obsess over the Mulan Szechuan sauce from McDonalds that circulated for only a few months twenty years ago. And all of his time-travelling endeavors in the show revolved around getting back to 1998 for that sauce. So McDonalds was tickled by this and brought the sauce back last year to select stores. They underestimated what a pop culture monster this had become, and sent like twenty packets of the stuff to stores. This didn't go over well with the screaming, entitled internet masses. People chanted outside the stores, one jackass leapt onto a store counter and shouted lines from the show, it was a mess. The sauce was selling for obscene amounts on eBay, and someone admitted to selling their car. Seeing their mistake, McDonalds decided that they'd bring the sauce back full time. Fast forward a few months later, and there it is. Destroying something that was so precious a few months ago felt like the only artistic direction to go with it.
So, yeah. I mean, the stuff is basically Teriyaki sauce.

People are silly.

And thanks! I like your setup as well, I wish I had more environment pieces and backdrops like that. Accessories really tie it all together.
