it’s totally summertime, and the livin’ is E-Z. I saw ‘dodgeball’ yesterday, at the mall, and unironically enjoyed pretty much all of it. now I’m reading the english translation of ‘battle royale’, the japanese pulp classic that inspired the deliciously violent movie of the same name, and listening to the chemical brothers. you can’t stop me from doing these things even though they can all be proved to be retarded on some theoretical level. all of this is ok cuz I have fellini dvds and academic wanker music and books with titles like ‘postmodern urbanism’ that I can pull out and leave conspicuously around if anyone comes over, yeahyeah.

there is a line in my new digital cameras’ manual that states, “For example, if animals are your subject, turn off the beam while shooting in the dark to avoid startling them.” that’s great, cuz it could just as easily be from the manual for something like a plasma cannon.

and now, I will eat cookies with chocolate chips in them and search the internet for music that is even stupider. yaaaar.

yo, i listened to some chem bros last week and was EATING THAT SHIT UP. a little reminiscing involved, too. when i first heard song to the siren, it forcibly removed large portions of my visage. then i heard ‘these beats are made for breakin” which just kills. no one can write a track with danceable, poppy, and armchair listening elements in them like them. and no one can break a beat like them. tall claims, yes, but they have a gift.

yeah that chemical brothers can do it to you just right. i was listening to ‘dream on’ in the rain while walking up that road between hyde park and kensington gardens in the delicate london rain. i’ll take that over this any day. hell yeah. and they’re guaranteed to keep from startling animals - beams or no!
