Within these strangely specific conditions, everything is perfect. We are perfect.

Pundits are always blaming TV for making people stupid, movies for desensitizing the world to violence, and rock music for making kids take drugs and kill themselves. These things should be the least of our worries. The main problem with mass media is that it makes it impossible to fall in love with any acumen of normalcy. There is no 'normal,' because everybody is being twisted by the same sources simultaneously.

Record sales don't matter when the people who bought the records are dead and gone.

I don't need to personally agree with something in order to recognize that it's true.

Sarcasm is when you tell someone the truth by lying on purpose.

We assume that all statements must be mild inversions of the truth, because it's too weird to imagine people who aren't casually lying, pretty much all the time.
