When you become a living, breathing, writer of copy for a small family of talented folks who help people tell stories for a living; you sometimes get stuck staring at blank pages, wishing your finger tips were actually straws and the keys of your computer were little mouths sucking the words straight from your brain into your hard drive.

Zevs got nabbed in Hong Kong while throwing up a drippy droppy “liquidated” Chanel logo on the Armani store in preparation for his first solo show in Hong Kong.

Thanks to Cool Hunting for putting this together.
