Happy Rice Truck Day to all who observe
4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.
On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day
So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

The short answer: page by page, by hand.

Print it out. Better yet, free hand copy it in your own style on paper with whatever pen or pencil comes to hand. Then thumb tack to your wall. Make a frame from recycled cardboard or wood. Embrace it. Appreciate it. Share it.
