Colorwheel Movie Quotes

I wonder if I'll ever grow out of my love for anything with bright colors. I'd prefer to look like a color wheel on most days than anything else.

My band has just gotten back from their second month-long tour of 2011 this morning. I'm assuming a small amount of trouble will be gotten into tonight. Oh, what a scandal!

I think everyone to some degree prides themself on being able to remember movie quotes or lyrics. You know, at just the perfect time, you pull out that Zoolander reference, the Hamlet reference, even the frickin Bible reference! Any time that a human can reference something else that someone else should know, they will usually reference it. It seems to make us feel smart about ourselves. It's a win-win situation for the quoting person if we nail it. Everyone laughs/we get awarded brownie points if they got the reference, or everyone else is an idiot if they don't know the reference... and we're still the geniuses, because really, "everyone should know that!" right?!... But when do we stop listening to music and watching movies with this subconcious, supersonic tape recorder on in the back of our minds? It's almost scary to turn it off, isn't it? Don't you feel as if you're dumbing yourself down? But think about the beauty and freedom there is in simply appreciating something for its momentary value versus trying to save it, remember it, say it later, tear it apart later. The beauty in simplicity- when we can just let go and see things for what they really are. And appreciate them.
