The History of Me, Part XXII: A Scanner Darkly

See, NOW it’s obvious.

Years ago, I wondered on here whether or not Winona Ryder knew she was “dating” me in college. Well, now I know!

Holy shit, lol. Wow, SO obvious.

Yikes.

Okay then.

Reeeeeal obvious, this movie is. Just like Linklater’s Waking Life, this is… so direct, so… me, in my college years, that it almost defies analysis. I mean, why bother?

Yeah, ok, I get it.

I mean, it’s all there- Winona herself, the drug addictions, my friends, and everything else that is relevant. There’s so much in fact that I won’t take the time to list it all.

And me, and my “condition”. And the ending, with the flower. Ha- I get it. I actually remember that flower from my youth. I mean, I get it, so incredibly powerfully.

Alright, well, there it is, then.

Good to know these things!

But still, guys… you really should have told me. It’s like I’ve said earlier on this blog, many many times over- effective communication is honest communication. Honesty is the way to do it- look at this blog. See? Honesty is what makes this stuff work. It’s the lifeblood of everything that is… IDK, good?

Seriously, guys. You really need to tell people. Honestly, Winona really should’ve told me (and I guess she did, through this movie and probably a bunch of others, though NEVER DIRECTLY, and that is key) but… ugh, wow, alright, fine.

Jeez.

Yeesh.

Ok then.
