Conclusion
Posted: April 25, 2006 Filed under: BLOG | Tags: home Comments OffHey hey Sydney, it’s completely awful to be back. I feel like I’ve just been on this incredible roller coaster ride, only to have it come to an abrupt end, be rudely ejected out of my seat and straight into a coffin with the lid quickly nailed shut. The entire year has disappeared like a dream, and the SuperMe who lived it, who touched every colour of the spectrum from 0 to 10, must be put away, due to make a reappearance at an unknown date. Welcome back to living conservatively, flat and nothing, like this city.
My life is in shambles. It was all plotted out til now and I rushed in headlong, sucked by the tremendous force, what joy. So the great cannon went, School… University… Travel… A lifetime of the world opening up, petal by petal unfurling. I wanted to see all the riches on offer and gobble it up. And no one can deny I didn’t, I kicked the shit out of that baby for all it was worth! But where to and what to now? Just scrambling in the darkness with no guiding light. My chest grows tight in panic.
Audio commentary
Posted: April 24, 2006 Filed under: BLOG | Tags: television Comments OffOK I haven’t done one of those “point out something funny on the net” posts in awhile, but here goes. I’ve been watching a few DVDs of sitcoms lately (Arrested Development, Dave Chapelle, The Mighty Boosh), and sometimes the audio commentary can be funnier than the show itself. I think that’s true for the Lies issue from Vice Magazine. (Click on an article, read it, listen to the audio after.)
Los Angeles
Posted: April 22, 2006 Filed under: BLOG | Tags: los angeles Comments OffThe road crackles under the trembling bus bumbling down the concrete rivers. This city is equal parts puke and plastic, unraveling a carnival of the grotesque. All the shit of society grin wickedly in melted forms, smelling like refuse left to rot in the sun and licking the sweat off their own skin. The beautiful are ugly and the ugly are beautiful, it’s all mixed up and horrifying. I can barely stand it. This heavy weight of stinking humanity wolfing down the hours and excreting nothing but graceless existence. I can’t see beyond the Hollywood Hills and so sink quickly, lost in deep swamps of crass fast food chains and hollow talk and life in shadow stretches without end.
Even worse even worse home home beckons! Welcome to my mini-death!!! Welcome to plain pretty life again. How awful. How awful.
