Bully, Halloween, and the Last Gasp of Rock N’ Roll (MySpace 10.22.06)


Got Bully the other day, the game is awesome and all the pundits attacking it saying that it will influence children to induce debauchery in schools across the country. Mark Foley is more evil than Bully, so shut the fuck up pundits. I like the game because it's a story, it's like an interactive "Catcher in the Rye" and the Halloween stage is a blast.

Speaking of All Hallows, my favorite John Carpenter flick of the same name is on AMC as I blog this. I love the holiday as many of you know. Like Ministry said, I wish everyday was Halloween." Think how much fun it would be, all the girls in sexy outfits, sex and candy—there would be some cons—it would be hard to identify serial killers if every day were Halloween—so I guess my idea really sucks.

I downloaded the new Deftones and Trail of Dead albums, both are pretty good, but I can't help to think that 10/19/06 was the day I heard rock die. I say this because these groups are my favorites and I can sense both records will be both group's last. And nothing new is good anymore, when "Panic at the Shitsco" is the best the kids can come up with—it's all over! Everything is over!

One of these days I'll grow up and quit listening to all the new bands, quit playing video games and day dream about a Halloween utopia….but until the, I'll enjoy my time as an overgrown child. In two years, I'll be 31 and have my master's in CR….I'll grow up then. Deal Drew?

Deal...

Happiness is a Fish you CAN catch off the banks of the Jersey Shore

Happiness is a silly thing. It's not just this thing that happens for us in spite of everything else. I think we co-create happiness, just as we can co-create our own bitterness, dread and need to watch Jersey Shore in spite of our best intentions.

Speaking of the exploits of Ronnie, J-Woww, Sammie "The Sweetheart," Vinny, Ronnie, Snookie, Pauly D, Angelina and the Situation himself--I fuckin' love this show. The reason I love this show is because I thought I wouldn't. I thought it was low culture pulp. I was wrong. The kids on JS are A) a lot smarter than I initially thought B) have character C) are hardworking and D) have no grand illusions of their celebrity, which makes them borderline brilliant--or whoever is handling them is a genius.

I would explain myself more, but I'm tired, but enjoy this little youtube ditty I found of Michael Cera getting turned into a Guido by the cast of JS.

Double Redwood



In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said: "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter - bitter," he answered;
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart."
-Stephen Crane
