  1. Why would you have loved being in 'Nam?

     

    The climate would suit me. The madness, the pointless butchery. Few people will permit themselves an understanding of Vietnam and what it implies about the human condition. I'm different. I understand perfectly, and I don't care.


  2. Well, that's the implication of calling it the "Plan 9" of Simpsons episodes... it's so god-awful that I can't help but be endlessly entertained by it.

     

    There's rumor that it was intentionally bad (evidence by some Comic Book Guy metacommentary in the episode), a response to the bitching fanbase that the show was slipping. I could see it.


  3. Milky, do you think- nay; do you know if Mr. Pink gets away with the stolen diamonds at the end of Reservoir Dogs?

     

    I'm pretty sure he doesn't. He only left a few minutes before the police are there.

     

    I think there was something about how if you turn the volume all the way up, you can hear him being captured. Even without that, logistically it makes sense that he would be.

     

    It doesn't matter anyway. He's the purest sociopath of them all, and it doesn't matter whether he gets away or not.

     

    It would be worse if he did. Much like the ending of Con Air where Steve Buscemi, this time as Garland Greene, gets away. If there had been an additional scene after the credits where they show him butchering a child, that would have been better.

    This was also a good year for mindfucking action movies, ie Doomsday, Wanted, The Spirit and Punisher: War Zone (A+++++++)


  5. Hey, I didn't even realize this was going on. And not believing in repeats means you have to vote me out right now? Gay!

     

    Venkman - Much of what I say is not to be taken seriously. There's not really any way to determine what exactly those things are, but I never had any resentment toward him, as he thought I did. Liked him, really.

     

    EHME - Pretty chuckleicious, and Inc is barely here.

     

    Byron - Smartass, but not unlikable. Cheech seems fine, but I don't interact with him nearly as much.

     

    Slayer - That other guy is a dumbass.

     

    Kinetic - Awesome.

     

    Matt Young - I know who Canadian Chris is, and yet don't.

     

    Mellow - I agree, he's a sleeper here. One of the best.

     

    Edwin - My nigga.

     

    KOAB - My nigger.

     

    Smues - Seemed to get my reference to the 70s/50s Song recently, and that counts for a lot.

     

    Kamala - I love them both, but pbone screwed me out of a place to stay once and I have to retaliate somehow. I went over there once and defaced his roommates room, and made horrible sexual comments to her, and said I would kill her dog. But he didn't like her either, so that really doesn't count.

     

    Agent - Pretty easy.

     

    Kreese - Hardest one of the round. Really.

     

    Lushus - Selected by chance.

     

    VX - Both good, I've interacted with Leo more... see, I even know his name.


  6. Milky, what should I do with my life? I'm at a crossroads here, brother.

     

    What do you want to do with your life?

     

    Rock?

     

    It's hard to answer without more information, but my general advice is to go camping, burn some money, and meditate. You'd be amazed at how clarifying it is. Do you do drugs? You might want to try some peyote while you're doing it. But even without it.

     

    1> Your most surreal moment in life?

     

    Difficult question.

     

    It was probably the time I had alcohol poisoning and I was having this waking nightmare that I was in hell, and all I could hear was the song that Stewie sang on Family Guy when he was dreaming of a life at sea ("Be it galleon or freighter, I'm an expert navigator..."), but at chipmunk speed.

     

    Or the well known story of me having sex with the thirteen year old girl. I tell that story because it was indeed so utterly surreal while it was happening.

     

    2> Most unsatifactory sexual experience

     

    Oh, there's plenty of these.

     

    A funny one was this time I was sucking a guy's dick and he made me stop because I was blowing him too good. He said it was too intense. So I told him to get the fuck outta here!

    Once I was jerking off onto a girl's face and she fell asleep. I went ahead and came, but she didn't even wake up when it hit her.


  7. What are you afraid of?

     

    I was always afraid of being boring, but I've now realized that that will never happen, and if it did, I'd welcome it.

     

    In a non-cosmic sense, I'm afraid of bees, wasps and other stinging insects.


  8. Back to the 'Nam thing. What posters could you see being with you over there? Would it be more like Full Metal Jacket, or Apocalypse Now?

     

    Posters in my squad?

     

    Brody would make a great character in a war movie. EHME would be a good character. You could be the black guy. I think Agent might be good... midwest outdoorsman, good with firearms, taken a lot of hallucinogens. And... Matt Young. Matt fuckin' Young.

     

    More like Apocalypse Now, for sure. My favorite Nam movie though: Deer Hunter.
