IRONY BOARD
“After watching Hannibal, I theorize that the serial killer genre is meant to perpetuate mass mental illness. It glamorizes narcissism.”
Well, it’s important, Polly. You gotta have monsters to feed on the tribe. And you gotta have slow people to feed to the monsters. So serial killers feeding on narcissist leftovers gives the rest of us the chance to go about our normal business and thins the herd.
“Ah, so narcissists are slow… I used to be a fat narcissist.”
Yeah, they always stop and look at themselves. It’s important to keep slow people around you for when the monsters attack. I used Mom for that for years. Worked too; death visited and I got away.
“My generation is the generation of irony. You are more with my generation than your generation.”
Why, is that the decision of the Irony Board?
“OK, more about irony. I used to think it was just a fashion, but now I think it’s an oppression. Because They want everyone to feel superior; it’s a way of desensitizing my generation so we can’t feel anything about the bad shit that’s going down.”
I’m more from the Mad Max school of movies.
“Yes. Mad Max is cool. Look what he turned into, though.”
That’s exactly what I was thinking! I wonder what I’ll think of the movies next time I see them. Everything changes.
“Yes, I never thought Mel Gibson could age. I thought of him as a silver-tinged hairy beefcake.”
Do you get a side order of salt lick with that?
