I Turned Forty, And Im Finally Going

I Think First-person Narrators Should Be Complex, Because Otherwise The First-person Is Too Shallow And Predictable. I Like A First-person Narrator Who Can't Totally Be Trusted.

I'm Not The Guy To Ask About The Most Up To Date Stuff.

Cool Is Spent. Cool Is Empty. Cool Is Ex Post Facto. When Advertisers And Pundits Hoard A Word, You Know It's Time To Retire From It. To Move On. I Want To Suggest, Therefore, That We Begin To Avoid Cool Now. Cool Is A Trick To Get You To Buy Garments Made By Sweatshop Laborers In Third World Countries. Cool Is The Triumph Of The Will. Cool Enables You To Step Over Bodies. Cool Enables You To Look The Other Way. Cool Makes You Functional, Eager For Routine Distraction, Passive, Doped, Stupid.
