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:

"I dispose of obsolete meat machines.  Not because I hate them (I do) and not because they deserve it (they do), but because they are in the way and those older ones don't meet emissions codes.  They emit too much.  You don't like them and I don't like them, so spare me the hysteria."

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."
