Oh. Oh.

It's fantastic. I don't even know where to begin. I guess I should start by laughing, though.  :lulz:

This one bit is gonna haunt me:

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

This is, without a doubt, my favorite thread in the entirety of PD.com.  For some reason, it really hits home with me.  You did an amazing job, Roger.  This part of Pedestrians on the Lost Highway is incredible.  Shit, the entirety of Pedestrians on the Lost Highway is incredible.  Thank you for taking the time and effort to write it, Roger.



If my existence turns out to have one iota of purpose I'll be as pissed off as a motherfucker. Would kinda turns a holiday into a job.

I don't know the difference between Nihilism and existential absurdity.

All I know are the following facts:

1.  Your life is your own, if you have the guts to seize it.

2.  There's no plan.

3.  Don't just eat that cheeseburger, eat the hell out of it, and

4.  Relax.  Shit just isn't that important.

Fucking fantastic.  :mittens:

McDonalds, if you think about it, is the PERFECT example of life/lifestyles in the late 20th/early 21st century. Pink slime shaped like chicken nuggets, giant lawsuit-happy corporations suing people for using the prefix "Mc" no matter what the circumstances, marketing aimed at small children (Ronald, etc) to form life-long associations with the product, and the abysmally-effective "I'M LOVING IT" marketing ploy aimed at maintaining that association into the person's adult life...With the advertisement showing skinny, attractive people while in reality the AVERAGE customer is 45 pounds overweight.

All style, no substance almost-food sold to brainwashed masses. It's AMERICA™, in a white paper bag.
