See, the thing is, Andy posted the Last Days of Vietnam it's 2 hours and he pushed the thing twice so I go, okay fine, watch the sunabitch'n thing and I'm sorry I did glad sorry glad sorry glad sorry glad sorry glad sorry glad sorry I did glad sorry glad sorry glad sorry I did watch it all the way through and now I'm pissed off all over again and terrible sad but mostly pissed off but also sad but mad and sad and mad and sad at the same time. So I do what I usually do and go see what the loons are up to who are having their own thing going on with the new royal baby taking over the news and the exceedingly predictable press about all that and the even more predictable merchandising and rob has me properly cracked up on the spot right off the bat at first glance with his Tesco royal baby mug a cheap-ass hand drawn Tesco Value in their distinctive blue and red pattern, hand-drawn, poorly drafted and spot on. And then this kid here and I'm thinking at first, oh there goes the flat screen but no, he was totally ace copying Bruce Lee and he's only, what, looks like four years old?Then this video ran and at first I was thinking, oh man, I'm glad I'm not sitting in there. The joke is the place is empty. Right? No the joke is this is the banality of local American politics. No, the joke is how ass-raping boring it is listening to other peoples' medical situations. No. The joke is the whole thing, accent and all, empty room, important discussion but no listeners, the whole thing in its entirety is funny this is your life on Earth, how it organized by others using the institutions left to them is funny. Your human situation is funny. Modern life is terribly funny and I realize I am back on even keel after that dreadful documentary that had me so reupset with it and everything in between.

Oh man, I'm having that déjà vu thing happening again like fucking mad even this part typing this.

The story of Vietnam, the Last Days of Vietnam, Vietnam what is it good for... I probably wouldn't watch unless I was compelled to because I would go in thinking this is more about some university students who didn't go to Vietnam felt about Vietnam.

And then if they didn't give me that, I would be, omg, I'm such a jerk. Or I'm getting old and no longer capable of curiosity.
