Alllllllright....

So I rented Wonder Showzen, never having seen any of it...and holy hell, it's bad. And no, not in that good way. Bad as in, Crass-just-to-be-crass spew for college kids with fucking A.D.D. bad. Bad as in, been done and done in a much more clever and talented way. The only good moment I've seen so far has been World Politics In 30 Seconds...and 30 seconds out of four shows, not good. And those kids, what perfect little monsters they're going to become. Yay world.

I guess I should have known better. MTV hasn't put out a good show in years. Gone are the days of Liquid Television. Don't get me started on the 5 minutes of The Hills I saw last night. OMG FOR SERIOUS NO DONT. Nothing makes me more depressed than seeing what entertains our future citizens.

Sometimes, in my upper-level English class, I count how many times some of the girls say "like" when they're giving their opinions on Fitzgerald or Dos Passos.

I will have an aneurysm by thirty.

Found in a public library copy of "What Painting Is" by James Elkins.
Appropriately, I was reading about alchemy at the time.
