I have as much patience as the next man, but I'm finished with you, M. Night Shamalam. I'm not saying it's entirely your fault; there are too many unknowns. For now, you're simply in the lead.
To get to the point, Shamalamalama Ding-Dong, you fail at subtlety. This tragic flaw of yours is epitomized by having your terrible excuse for a sympathetic main character embodied by one of Hollywood's most distasteful, veiny big shots. Sure, you may not have known what he was to become in this century, but come on, you must have had at least an idea. Mel is a self-identified Knight Templar Reserve, owns ten veal farms across California, and probably considered making you an offer on your name. And you expect to be able to give directions to a guy like that? Unforgivable mistake.
Sorry, this is meant to be about you, not Mel. I'm partly at fault for wasting two hours of my adult life on a plot-line that amounted to a three year old's scribbling. I should have read the six hundred reviews out there denouncing this artistic equivalent of a lawn mower. But dammit, I couldn't help it. Why do you always make movies with such sort-of intriguing concepts? And the way you always preface your name in your trailers with "From The Mind of...". Ach, why can't it all just come together? It always seems like it might happen. But it never does Shammy. It never does.
My Friend and I bought beanie babies when they first came out because we were in fourth grade and for some reason our parents decided to give us allowances. We sat on either side of my room with the ceiling fan on high and tactfully tossed them up into the cyclone above us, causing them to whip at tremendous speeds into various objects and eye sockets. Once we tired ourselves of that particular waste of time, I decided to sell my friend the beanie babies. This was the summer of '95. I sold them for my missing 18 lego pieces to the Division Bell special edition. Eight Months later, the craze hit. Dude made $500 at the age of 10, before Ebay.
You called to reinvent The flow, the incessant, Our pleasantries without the closed screen.
While back before, the happy humours thinned, (And could channel below our expressions) A turn against gravity's pump, A pulse past the pallor.
Here, take: we control our nightly mutation. Be glad, We turn to spiritual spit. Make room, we're about to start the static forgetful pressure as gods.
My respect for Mark Walhberg has gone up 6 trillion percent....
...does that make me a racist?
Wikipedia: As a teenager, Wahlberg participated in multiple acts of violence and vandalism. He later claimed to have been in trouble 20–25 times with the Boston Police Department as a youth. By the age of thirteen Wahlberg had developed a serious addiction to cocaine and other substances...When he was sixteen (again using racist language) after robbing a pharmacy under the influence of PCP, Wahlberg knocked a middle aged Vietnamese man unconscious, left another Vietnamese man permanently blinded in one eye, and attacked a security guard. For these crimes, Wahlberg was charged for attempted murder, pled guilty to assault, and was sentenced to two years in jail at Boston's Deer Island House of Correction, of which he served 45 days. In yet another incident, the 21-year-old Wahlberg fractured the jaw of a neighbor in an unprovoked attack. Commenting on his youthful indiscretions, Wahlberg has stated : "I did a lot of things that I regretted and I certainly paid for my mistakes".
Paid for my mistakes?!!
This man is my hero. And by hero, I mean its great fantasizing about being a 15 yr old PCP addict on the stand for attempted murder.
Chipotle Mexican Grill, better known as Chipotle, makes me happy. As a fast food joint, it's nearly perfect (clean, tasty, affordable, socially conscious). As a business enterprise, its genius. They're successful in following through with their motto, Food With Integrity, and integrating it into ever facet of their marketing strategy. Additionally, they are one of the few businesses that still thrives off an assembly line workforce. I love having my lunch prepared by people whose daily motions epitomize their working class status. And, God-willing, they're probably not unionized.
My Chipotle is on the corner of 7th ave and 26th street. It has a badass graffito on it's plywood southern wall outside. It has an icy cold interior--the optimal kitchen working condition. It serves beer, which is the only justification I have left for drinking during work hours. And most importantly, it has the exact same inner workings as every single other Chipotle.
Except one (maybe).
My favorite part of Chipotle is the fixins stage. Four kinds of salsas, etc, no limits. It's lovely, but its also where the most amount of human error occurs (the mitigation of which is arguably the the hardest part about the franchise model). Some restaurants can spin this inevitability as "home-made", but not fast food chains. So how does one shave down the potentially hazardous chin of this highly entropic stage of the burrito making process?
At my Chipotle, they have this strategy of hiring elderly mexican (I use the term in the most ethnically ignorant sense) women --perhaps the most underrated workforce in America today, specifically for the fixings stage. These women bring decades of culinary experience to their single task of drizzling my burrito with sour cream...
..., applying the perfect scoop of salsa (a thorough understanding of each salsa's mass to spicy ratio is a necessary imperative here), and the sacred sprinkling of the queso.
Though it's technically "unskilled" labor, it takes a shit-ton of practice to fully appreciate the intricacies of a perfect burrito. At my Chipotle, they kill it -- it's a skill that tells me one thing: they gots some authentic viejas.
Continuing a train of thought is impossible One thing my father always told me was I should always research and rehearse a good joke before I go out anywhere. Time it for the awkward silences, was one of his pointers. Everyone hates awkward silences, and they love people who interrupt them with jokes. And incorporate funny accents if possible. Accents make people sound stupid, and stupidity gets laughs.
And I would plead: Dad, father. People like when you make jokes. Not when you tell them.
-Son, what you just said just proves just how incomprehensible my brilliance must seem to you. Let's practice.
-I won't.

Pigeons will not and do not fuck with me, categorically, because I wear the shades. They scatter when I don't think about wearing my shades indoors and, since I'm being real, I never think about wearing my shades indoors. And before I get too meta about it, the very fact that I'm not thinking about it makes the whole pigeon collective too collectively distressed for anybody still sill-dwelling to look in and verify it. Real pigeons are like dry grundles: they do not exist. I like to make sure they don't exist by placing upon the bridge of my nose my shades and remind those orange lidless eyes that we all look and feel like Ray Charles alone and inside.
