okay so i can't handle the world as it is, everything moves too fast and there's too much to keep track of and just making the smallest effort is a serious drain on my resources. but some people *can* handle it and they are in sync with the gears and inner workings of the world and it's my job to cheer these people on and act as a source of countercultural inspiration and wisdom to help keep them on an ever changing track. in this way i can be true and useful to the Great Enweirdening and help push the species on to evolutuonary mutation.

oh god i turn 47 this month. oh crap. holy jeez

pootis

there is no hell like an old hell.

we approach 3am, "Videodrome" down, starting to watch Nigel Kneale's "The Stone Tape," a bit of BBC hauntological fun. 2 minutes in and there's some impressively ominous typefaces prevalent in this movie.

Death To Pepsidrome, Long Live the New Coke

good news everyone! i don't have to pull another all-nighter because the New Shit won't be delivered until 6AM!

bad news everyone! i'll have to pull another all-nighter answering phones because The Shit, It Is Still Down!

news everyone! going to be filling the time in between now and the morning with bad food and disturbing movies. it's been a hot minute since i watched "Videodrome." oh my yes.

up all night last night taking calls from users 'cos Our Shit Is Down, yes it's still down, we know you can't do your work, no i don't have an ETA, no i can't tell you why, okay i luv yoo buh-bai; over and over until 6AM

sleep for five hours, boss asks me to come in tonight to install New Shit so that Shit Won't Be Down No More. fine.

have a sleep-deprived hangry argument with the SO, try to get some more sleep, too pissed off to sleep, when i do finally get 15 minutes of sleep my brain is like yo to help you process that argument here's another argument in your dream so you can be angry while you're angry

do dinner, chug a Red Bull on the way to work while playing the "Run Lola Run" soundtrack to get me awake and psyched, get in the office, aaaand...delivery of New Shit in two and a half hours.

cool. cool. cool cool cool.

the real city-destroying monster in this movie is the unresolved sexual tension between Kong and Godzilla

*watches King Kong fight Godzilla* hey, ha ha, this is like the old arcade game "Rampage," someone should make a movie out of that someday

*suddenly remembers that there was a "Rampage" movie starring The Rock and i had forgotten about it until now*

i can't believe that there's a movie called "Godzilla Vs. Kong" and i haven't watched it yet.

well i somehow managed to get a night alone so it's chinese food, a xanax and Monkey Punch Lizard Fighty Times. huh-fuckin-zzah.

if the SSX3 soundtrack were breakfast cereal, it'd be "Oops, All Bangers"
