For being the juggernaut of chicanery that he is known to be and for dropping such subtle and magical pieces of humor like the ones found below.

Bravo sir, I salute you!

Vince Basile is a living piece of history.  He should be behind glass in a national museum.

Our suburban strip mall plastic culture has forgotten its roots.  In pursuit of empty modernity, it has circumsized its heritage like some overeager mohel.

Yes, you can cast away Mr Vince Basile.  Relegate him to the scrap heap of history if you so choose.  Put him in a trailer, drive him to the dump, and throw him in it.  Bury him in a landfill under the leavings of your disposable western world.  That is your right.

And when your Ikea furniture is delaminating, when insomnia and uneasy suspicions weigh upon you, when you are lost and alone - you will remember what you have done.

You cast away this north pointing needle.  This touchstone.  This historical piece.  Mr. Vince Basile.  This nugget of antiquity.

Vince is an older man.  So yes, you could drive him across town and install him at the Shady Acres, mixed in with a thousand other senior citizens.  And who would ever know that in there, sitting in a wheelchair, fitted with a colostomy bag, is Mr Canada?  Condescending nurses treating him like a simpleton.  Strained peas.  This is what we do to our old people.  But is it right?

Or you could push him down a flight of stairs, for example.  He is frail.  His bones are embrittled and his muscles are gone.  You could dangle him from a balcony if it amuses you.  He can't stop you.  But should you?  Of course not.

You can pitch Vince Basile from a moving car.  See him tumbling down the road.  He can't do anything about it.  Effortlessly drown him in a bathtub.  Or just walk up and club him like a helpless baby seal.  That's fine.  You can do anything you like to Mr Vince Basile.

But what kind of a person would you have to be?  I'm asking you.

I'm not sure I've seen that piece. I could only imagine it being comedic genius, just like the rest of his work.

Will you take this simple offering (below) in place of my inability to produce said material??

This one?

Sevastase is sure to attract the ladies this season with his rough 'n ready Eurothug look.  Planted in his scuffed riders boots and standing bowlegged in low slung Bronson Deathwish Dungarees, passersby on the pavement will appreciate him as trendy friendly yet down to Earth. 

Sevastase smartens up the ensemble with an eggshell blue business shirt, great for doing taxes when he's not kicking vagrants.  The matching smart/casual jacket by Shar Pei Pour Homme recalls the heyday of the slinky while threatening the return of the Miami Vice look.

Along with a pensive gnawing of the lower lip, the always in style aviator sunglasses cultivate the detached thousand yard stare of a gentleman who has seen some excrement but bears his burden stoically.

As at home on the catwalk as on the sidewalk, ladies and gentleman: Sevastase!

one of my favorite posters ever, and I've said it many times....intelligent and has a fantastic sense of humor.

when he said he wants to call a black person Pumpernickel bread because they call him White bread I almost fell out of my chair laughing.

One of my all time favorites...good to see someone actually deserving of these type of threads get their due.

Ton of range (which is rare on this site), very knowledgable and consistently funny.

Tapeworm makes me want to learn English. But I'm French so it won't happen.
