Journal / Skanky Cucumbers

i went to see ‘waking life’ tonight.
how did they do that crazy animation? i have no idea. it boggles the mind. as a movie it’s definitely worth seeing, it’s certainly a great deal more brain-stimulating than a lot of the drek that’s floating around these days.
is that how you spell ‘drek’? or is it ‘dreck’? ‘dreck’ looks better.
if dr. dre did a calvin klein ad. it would be ‘dre ck’. and why are travis all smiling on the cover of this months q magazine?
i’m looking at it now. their smiles look very ambitious. good for them. happy ambitious scots. i did like fran on the ali g show.

i’m spiralling down into the morass of randomness. one thing that sucks about winter: waxed cucumbers. summertime is great, the organic cucumbers are unwaxed. wintertime: waxed cucumbers.
i try to wash it off but it’s always their. more like varnish than wax.
and i hate peeling vegetables. but i must, what with the varnishwax. and it tastes bitter. i’m guessing its an edible wax, seeing as they use it on foodstuffs. but it’s fucking gross. and the cucumbers are all sticky and weird. can’t they ship unwaxed cucumbers in the winter? how can i make a tofurkey-mustard-cucumber sandwich with some skanky assed waxed cucumber? once again, the perils of the urban bourgeoisie.

so go see ‘waking life’. it’s not great, but it’s very unique and thought provoking. it doesn’t say anything that hasn’t been said before. and it doesn’t say anything that hasn’t been said ad infinitum in our masturbatory universities, but it’s still quite unique and interesting. and the animation of manhattan and the brooklyn bridge is gorgeous. i would like a poster of that one scene. with the red sky.
very lovely.
