    I don't think anyone would dispute that he is the master of deadpan one-liners.

    My favorite was the mysterious switch in his house that didn't seem to go to anything, and he would go flick it up and down a few times every day. Then, a few months later, he got a letter from a woman in Germany saying "Cut it out.".

      I wish I could find / remember the wording, but the one he says he has been collecting the red string from band aid packets to make clothes for needy kids in war zones. But then he realises it's probably not the best colour to be wearing with snipers about.

    Two complete strangers meet as new born babies and by "coincidence" they meet again on their death beds after living their long, separate lives. "So, what did you think?" (About life?) One stranger on his death bed is asking the other, coincidentally next to him also on his death bed, whom he met only once before when they were both first born, what he thought about the whole "life thing". Its absurd and funny the way Steven tells it. "About life?" is implied and its absence adds to humor.

    Mon. May 4, 2020
    Yesterday I was in the east end, got cigarettes and beers and went to the garbage dump/park at Gerrard and V.P. I got drunk, listened to music, thought because that's all they allow me to do. It's not like I have real friends or anyone to talk to. I was thinking about Ken and Janet this morning. How I met Ken, how he introduced me to Janet, what they did to me, how no-one even confronts me. I keep thinking about all the artwork they've stolen from me and all my belongings and how no-one will tell me the truth about who did that and why. Every time I think about who I knew, who I trusted, I feel like an idiot, and this government doesn't care about anything except lies and to continue all this corruption without honesty and real justice. Every day I wish I had left this country and looked for kind people, but I didn't know what things were, how their nasty minds work. When my life fell apart and Janet offered me that painting job, all they did was ruin my work then. When I left a room I painted and came back and saw someone had walked through paint and pit footprints all over the floor, I'm not sure if that was to humiliate me and put down my work ethic as usual, or if they were insinuating something about my art. I'm so tired of things having no respect for me and being so selfish. She had the nerve to show me a picture she said was dear to her, and someone ruined all my photos, and I think it's weird that I started meeting others with names that all shared names with people or beings of my past. That's how selfish they are. Collect and treasure what they own, and shit on the feelings and nostalgia and efforts of others. She never told me the truth either. No-one has, no-one does.
    2.
    They're being idiots on my Facebook again. They show on my phone three repeats of Saturday's posts but Sunday's doesn't appear, and those posts weren't showing on my phone yesterday.
    3.
    I've been thinking all morning what this government won't say. They won't say people carry worms which is only harmful if eaten rare or raw. Anyone with half a mind knows that no-one should eat raw fish, so if they're trying to claim me swimming harms their fishing they're shameful liars. This government won't say that those things are spreading lies because they are rare meat eaters and have harboured hatreds against people like me without saying to my face ever. The government won't say those things purposely wormed peoples minds which was a vengeful and resentful action and the government won't say its not a virus but a bacteria they are using to kill worms. The government won't talk about the worms which people naturally carry and the engineered worms they put in people's minds which damage and even atrophy people. The government has not said that I've ever heard, that those same things damaged the waters and are blaming innocent people as a blame reversal to have an excuse to eradicate people. This government is not telling the truth.
