yeah i feel you on that whit, there's nothing more bitchass than passive aggressive hostility

if somebody wants to confront me, address me properly or else i won't even acknowledge your existence.

yeah i like that american spirits burn longer

now i can only smoke when in tokyo as they have them in vending machines

chain smoking american spirits drinking arizona green tea by a poolside = my ideal last sunday

all of the emails i get now are from colleges, I'm still in tenth grade jesus christ give me a break. Also I already know where I'm going. Typing sucks with a brace on my sprained-maybe-broken wrist. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow to get more x-rays and my stitches out, :/

i think if you're in 10th grade most likely they're just random solicitations to go take a tour and hopefully apply there. i got all those shits back then too, wasn't foolish enough to think i was being courted whilst i was barely hanging on with a B average

korean food is the same

barbecued meats heavily marinated and dipped in sauce, wrapped in kimchee to dull the fact shit's not that fresh. A lot of spices, marinades, diluted only by steamed rice.

it's pure flavor onslaught, is how i'd sum up the cuisine of that nation

Last Days was better than I thought it was going to be. More watchable than Elephant, the other film i had seen when Van Sant was going on this type of film kick. Gus always has nice camera work. Pitt's own performance of his song "Death to Birth" wasn't bad either.

nah the kinda guys who talk with that accent would probably be at some upstairs hideaway in TST or Jordan

the Four Seasons bloke is very clearly an expat.

"Marfa" was the most on point, close to the core word in that whole post

i think of...highwayman...deserted both in literal and philosophical sense. a place to brood in saloons, where everything even steak is bigger than life, a last bastion of the 'West' and 'awe-inspiring stretches of vastness' where a man could firmly plant his feet down yet also go anywhere and still be at one. Whatever that means

you could, you could

microsoft and oracle started out of a garage

Mandy Lieu is one of the better and more balanced looking models in HK. She's mixed...wears Visvims too.

Yet they say all mixed girls are nuts just like the snack bags of this variety.

i never read up much on astronomy, as a Chinese we're more into the -logy. A few anecdotes:

- About 20 years ago, the fortune teller at an esteemed temple told my father his son would grow up to be a ruthless womanizer.

- Met a woman last year, related to a family friend who made a living off this kind of forecast. Told me that based on my facial structure details and palm lines that I would have a remarkable career, further highlighted by the bumps on my palm and a mole between the index and middle finger on my left hand that indicates I will fall into a position of fame, fortune and power by the time I am in my 50s.

Based on my present circumstances, and reminiscing on the aforementioned, I find this whole shtick about as convincing as the bloke at the Four Seasons Blue Bar who tells the hapless mainland lass "I'll make you a star!"

don't think you need a book ON that

just study as many examples of advertising and branding throughout history as you can find, derive your own interpretation and hopefully original inspiration from it.

it's one of those things, like writing, that i don't think can really be communicated articulately, or at least honestly, through a 'how to...' book or even course on.

the old tarantino quip about going to films instead of film school is a good one that applies to any creation of subjective medium.

dont drive so thats not a problem

its just i have a weird, almost perverse fascination and obsession with "Texas." I've only been through Dallas/Ft Worth airport, ate a pretzel there back in 98 that i ended up puking back into the bag during take off. Maybe it's the idea of Texas, undoubtedly influenced by the literature and imagery through which I've seen it portrayed.

i love shooting cigarettes and ashtrays, they are easy to shoot in a variety of ways, and it always means something

here's an old favorite of mine i don't think i posted here (was on SZ bulletin board):

it was the first photo i took with my phone, probably the best photo i've ever taken imo

best party i ever went to was one i almost didn't.

didn't take it as one, it's all good my man

well i don't know actually anyone here, and vice versa. it's just anonymous back-and-forth banter on a screen. Sometimes it helps to shoot the shit, hopefully you hit the target and manage to kill time.

duofold (where is he these days?) once made a poignant point about the nature of the internet and its vast web in an old post back in the ftb2 days. it was a good message that i took to heart, one of the few, and it was that last line that stood out most.

but anyway, enough about me. i do that too much already. digital denim would have a good laugh if he saw this page, probably is.

Your posts always start off normal then fall off the deep end. For better or for worse theres a palpable sense of diminishing returns with every word.

good eye

why do canadians fart with one leg raised when sitting down

good thing i never got around to clicking dino's link

yeah but based on your signature i'm sure you are vis-a-vis acquainted with teh bouwnt in personal format.

as far as i'm concerned i could be facing a blank screen and superfuture is my hallucination. this the down side of the medication nonexistence

word

like people think i'm angry based on what i type on the internet. they say 'you sound sarcastic, angry and darn right hostile.'

i just brush it off like lint on my shoulders and respond with

'girl you trippin. how you know what i sound like, you can't even hear my voice. i'm writing this with a beam as wide and high as gymnasts and trampolines'

inspired by conversation with Minou - some random freestyles about Raf shit:
