“Hey, William. You ever get kids’ music stuck in your head? I watched Cocowhatevers once and I still sometimes get it going in my head…”
“Hey… you awake? Good. I was thinking… we should rewatch some of my old matches together.”
“Hey. You ever think about how Rocky 3 has a ton of plotlines that don’t fucking go anywhere, and people hate that? I didn’t. It really showed you a lot about his character.”
“Oh, you’re awake. I was thinking I’m due for a rewatch of 7 Samurai. It’s a Miike film. Wanna watch?”
“Just to let you know, I was cool in high school. Maybe the other kids didn’t get it, but I was my true, authentic self, and that’s what being cool really is.”
“Some people think Miike is just a trend follower or a shill chasing money. That’s not fucking true. Miike is an auteur.”
“I think money corrupts your brain. Trying to get it fucked me up, so what it does to people who actually have it is insane. They lose all connection with normal people and normal problems and spend so much time with other rich people that they lose perspective on what life is like for anyone else. Kinda fucked up, right?”
“Hey… you know, I don’t think Sylvia was ever rich. She’d just blow a lot on looking like it, hoping whatever she was up to would lead to a higher payday. It ends up being like those charities that spend 500k just to raise 505k, right? They could have just donated the 500k, but this way they advertised themselves in the process.”
“Social media’s pretty fucked up, yeah? I miss the 90s, the early 00s — bulletin board style forums were where it was at! Late nights on the BBs were incredible…”
“You think that stuff is true, about kids being able to hear while inside a pregnant chick? You know, some people put headphones on her belly and make the kid listen to Mozart or affirmations?”
“Sometimes I think I’m immortal. My life will never end. And it can’t — I’ve got kids. A lot of people would be thrilled but I’m stuck here. I will never find paradise. The exit to paradise is closed to me. No satisfaction. No truth. No conclusion. No closure. I just keep waking up.”
“Everyone thought Kill La Kill was great but I couldn’t stomach it. The pseudo feminist crap was all over it.”
“You ever seen Inception? That movie drives me bugfuck crazy. It’s boring as fuck because half of it is characters explaining the mechanics of the dream system. When people are like ‘this movie was so confusing, it was like Inception!’ I pretty much assume they’re morons.”
“I want to talk to my wife. I don’t think she would want to if I could. She put me here. We put me here.”

“Hey, you collect anything? I’ve got a lot of official merchandise but never any complete sets or anything. Back in the day you could have less than ten pieces and own everything official, but now you’ve gotta have hundreds of things… it’s fucking robbery, dude.”
“Bro, it’s insane that they don’t let us have pets here. I’d be way more chilled out if I could just stretch out on a couch somewhere with Jeane on my chest.”
“It’s really fucked up what the world let happen to Britney Spears. She was supposedly pop royalty and she still got destroyed by the system. It broke her dreams… I hope she’s free someday.”
“The Last Samurai has a bad reputation for a lot of reasons, but it’s actually not that bad of a movie. It’s got some seriously powerful performances, an intense emotional apex… and people kinda miss the point. Tom Cruise isn’t the actual ‘Last Samurai’, a white guy… that’s Ken Watanabe’s character. Giving Cruise all the attention just plays into why the filmmakers thought Cruise was bankable enough to be the face of it. And that’s just—“
“I don’t think I’ve been covered in blood for months. Kinda crazy, right?”
“Hey, did you ever go on long business trips or whatever when you were a CEO? Did your kid buy it? Was she cool with that, just forgot all about it when you got back? I bet kids don’t even remember that stuff when they’re little. Shit, I barely remember my twenties.”
“I’m fucking tired, but I can’t sleep. I think I’m gonna go jog around. You want to come?”
