Stuff You Don't (and rightfully shouldn't) Think About, Pt. 1




watched total recall before I went out to the bar last night. fucking michael ironside. fucking ronny cox. fucking dude-with-buggy-glasses guy. this is my generation's north by northwest. which is scary.

as I sifted through some yellow beer it occurred to me that the premise is basically the same as eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, but if you say that to half of portland, you'd probably get some granola thrown at you. seriously. both movies are about erasing/implanting shit in your brain, and living through it. now if we can just get elijah wood to say "you ever fuck a mutant?"

and it bugs me that the inherent industrial plight (fighting for fresh air in the future) is the same as spaceballs and an inconvenient truth.


now get your ass to mars.

I miss you. I'm glad you at least acknowledged that it was only half of Portland throwing the granola. I wouldn't want to be un-fairly forced into your lump of hippie hatred.
