Well well well, glad I'm not the only one fascinated by the Paul (Verlaine)/Arthur (Rimbaud) thingy.

something something Paul Verlaine and Arthur (Artie) Rimbaud

Ok, canon. 😎

only referring to them as “Paul Simon (mustache)” and “Art Garfunkle (weird hair)” from now on.

The Daily Pennsylvanian, 10/28/68

Ok, I literally died laughing here. 🤣

Also, I do hope y'all familiar with this pearl of a show, where at around minute 19:00 a Simon Says joke was made - Paul was very much amused by that too, you can tell.

I was only familiar with the top right, nice to see a couple more in which you can really see them, too. Very grateful for @more-or-less-the-same 's precious work finding these gems! 💜

Muhlenberg College, 4/19/68: Paul briefly stealing Art’s soon-to-be signature style, Art embracing his terrible posture, and a bunch of people who could stand to look a little more invested in the whole thing.

Honestly, if we don’t get a scene like this in season 2 of Our Flag Means Death, what even is the point?? 

Truth be told, Paul didn't keep being a folk singer for long, so Artie was right, in a sense.

Anyway, let's play basketball, weeeee! 🤣

Would expect nothing less from the guy who shot 102 free throws in a row with a lung infection 💀
