Weirdest thing happened today.
Ever read a book thinking you know the story? Like, you read Romeo and Juliet, and you know they're going to die?
Well, this time around I was reading 'Streetcar Named Desire' and I went through the entire thing absolutely CERTAIN about what would happen next. But no. The ending comes and goes, there's a brutal rape, and I'm left there all 'WHEN DID THE GUY GET RUN OVER?'
I mean, you write a play about a streetcar, you've GOT to have it hit someone. I was actually looking forwards to it. I thought it would be Stanley. And it was like 'yay' because the guy's a total bastard and deserved it.
It would have been nice, you know? Poetically just. The car that brought Blanche into his life sends him out of it. He kinda had it coming.
*sigh*
Dissappointing as fuck.

I'm staying over at her place tomorrow night to get up early and try out my route. It's EXCITING! It also means I get to start sleeping in for spares!

I will come over. And I'll bring Winston, because I actually (gasp) typed up the results you and I got so we'll be able to work from those. I think I actually understand that unit (Hess's law???) and if it's what I'm thinking of it shouldn't be too hard.

Date: 2006-03-23 04:22 am (UTC)Everybody, everybody, everybody fucks.
Everybody, everybody, everybody livin' now.
Everybody, everybody, everybody sucks.
Everybody, everybody, everybody livin' now.
Everybody, everybody, everybody cries
Everybody, everybody, everybody livin' now.
Everybody, everybody, everybody dies.
It's a non-stop disco
Bet you didn't know,
Bet you didn't know,
Bet you didn't know.
It's a violent pornography!
Choking chicks and SODOMY!
The kinda shit you get on your TV!
It's on the TV.
It's on your TV.
Turn off your TV.
Can you say brainwashing?
It's a non-stop disco."
I've never had a Shawarma! *feels deprived*

Re: STELLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Re: STELLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Date: 2006-03-23 05:04 am (UTC)Wanna analyze an even more fucked up song??
"you're made of my rib or baby
you're made of my sin
and i can't tell where
your lust ends
and where your love begins
i didn't want to hurt you baby
i didn't want to hurt you
i didn't want to hurt you
but you're pretty when you cry
and the moon gives me
permission and i enter
through her eyes
she's losing her virginity and
all her will to compromise
i didn't want to hurt you baby
i didn't want to hurt you
i didn't want to hurt you
but you're pretty when you cry
i didn't want to fuck you baby
i didn't want to fuck you
i didn't want to fuck you
but you're pretty
when you're mine
i didn't really love you baby
i didn't really love you
i didn't really love you
but I'm pretty when i lie
you hurt me baby
i hurt you baby
if you knew how much i love you
you would run away
but when i treat you bad
it always makes you want to stay
i didn't want to hurt you baby."

Date: 2006-03-23 05:20 am (UTC)'you let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
help me I broke apart my insides, help me I’ve got no soul to sell
help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god
you can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
help me tear down my reason, help me its' your sex I can smell
help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god
through every forest, above the trees
within my stomach, scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
you are the reason I stay alive'
Much more poetic, I think.

Date: 2006-03-23 05:23 am (UTC)I'd say 'fuck off' but I think the song's already mentioned to concept and the context would be a little off XD
