The Problem With Los Angeles

Is that every two months you get six weeks of things being terrible, one okay to decent week, and one week where you’re like “yeah, everything’s awesome! only two months until it all works out!”

Now that I’m drunk and bragging about myself, let’s bring up the day I stopped respecting my parents.

My dad’s mom died and he got emotional and mom* tried to read this insipid “Fall of Freddie the Leaf” book to me to “help me handle” DESPITE the fact that I’d been REGULARLY telling them that life and death were meaningless and to invest yourself in another mortal being was a major failing SINCE I WAS SIX.

Like dude I got it, she no longer existed and never would again, ok next slide.

I’d known they were inferior, my mom more than my dad, but I’d believed in them enough to think they could improve.

That’s it. I think I was maybe 11 or 12? My mom’s stepmom died six days later, which was funny. None of us liked her much.

Oh man and then there’s the time my mom (successfully!) convinced my dad to go into AA, which polished it off.

*on the recommendation of a public school psych! tho she was a trained assistant to america’s expert in mind control. i should ask after that.

STARTING FIGHTS ON SUNNY NIGHTS

STARTING FIGHTS ON SUNNY NIGHTS

2001, new years eve. I’m not a guy that gets laid a lot, but I’m at a friends apartment party and end up going downstairs with the girl that lives below them. We’re makin’ out, touching each other in the bathing suit area, and Sublime comes on.

“Wasn’t Brad such an amazing poet?” she says.

For the first time in my life (though not the last) I fake being so drunk I need to puke as I realize, “I’m not doing this”.

Sometimes I feel like I understand you people really well, and sometimes I feel like I don’t understand you people at all.

Sublime’s Greatest Hits should obviously have been titled “Good Times and Sex Crimes”. Troof.

Brisk - Dancing Thru The Knite

Now that I think to look it up, the top hits suggest it’s Dancing Thru The Night, but Knite makes it into the top 10, and it could plausibly be a reference to Luna-C’s label, Kniteforce.

So here’s a thing: I got a new laptop (because I am the right class) and now I can watch more than 10 seconds of video at a time.

So now I’m watching the videos attached to that Taylor Swift album I mentioned.

You Belong To Me! Those glasses and that signed shirt! I knew band geeks! They broke my heartdick by not deflowering me! And you are overselling this shit.

AND YOU TOO, GLEE.

Oh man if you google image for culture slut there’s a lot of noise to signal and the culture entirely drops out in the middle of the sixth page, it’s a continental divide or sommat.

ALSO: LAST POST FOR THE NIGHT

Notice how the geek t-shirt ads explicitly got the concept: “dude: thin/busty chicks in states of alarm”

While AT THE SAME TIME an interesting reversal the “sign up for our dudes getting with chicks thing: so many chicks!” ads have switched away from perfection in favor of images of fat/busty chicks to even try to balance the fantasy/believable

Hixxy & Sharkey - Toytown

This was Sharkey’s first venture into production, in 1995. I learned that because I have this track credited as “Hixxy & MC Sharkey” and I was like “wait where’s the MC?”

I talked to a pediatric nurse at the bar

I told him I knew some midwives and gently inquired into the standard critique of medicalized birth

He said “oh yeah, delivering babies is easy, we’re there to fix the mutants”.

So there’s that.
