The Ferris Bueller Fight Club Theory

This dude Peter Sciretta wrote this and it is absolutely brill...

My favorite thought-piece about Ferris Bueller is the “Fight Club” theory, in which Ferris Bueller, the person, is just a figment of Cameron’s imagination, like Tyler Durden, and Sloane is the girl Cameron secretly loves.

One day while he’s lying sick in bed, Cameron lets “Ferris” steal his father’s car and take the day off, and as Cameron wanders around the city, all of his interactions with Ferris and Sloane, and all the impossible hijinks, are all just played out in his head. This is part of the reason why the “three” characters can see so much of Chicago in less than one day — Cameron is alone, just imagining it all.

It isn’t until he destroys the front of the car in a fugue state does he finally get a grip and decide to confront his father, after which he imagines a final, impossible escape for Ferris and a storybook happy ending for Sloane (”He’s gonna marry me!”), the girl that Cameron knows he can never have.

Throwin' Back a Throwback

Pepsi unveiled the new "Throwback" flavors of its regular cola and Mountain Dew products, made with real sugar. I bought-up a dong ton at the local Target because this shit is on a trial run. I love me some natural sugar sodas (and they are rare as air these days) and the price is right too--about 2.50 for an 8 pack...that's less than three Mexican Cokes (Now with extra Swine Flu!). So if you like sodas and you hate high fructose corn syrup--give it a try. If we demand they have to supply.

I love how he squeezed in, "watch Zeitgeist," at one point. I wonder if any of the hoopleheads in attendance even knew what that meant. The single reason that we're fucked now is because most of those people in attendance at the "Yuk Yuk" didn't stop to think wtf he was talking about...they probably just thought it was part of the joke that they didn't really get, But they'll laugh like they got it because the girl they're with is laughing and he wants to seem smart so he can see her vagina later that night.

The truth is out there and the majority can't handle it...until it's too late.

Horoscope for this Week

As I close my eyes and ask my deep self for a psychic vision that symbolizes your current astrological omens, here's what I see: You're trying to look relaxed even though you have one foot on a dock and one foot on a boat as the boat pulls away. How should we interpret this scene? Here's what I think: It seems likely that at any minute now you will have to commit yourself to either the dock, the boat, or the water.
