I am checking DVD cases for discs and putting them in a box (still) and after an experience I thought:

It's kind of like trying to open up Babel to check if the disc is still there and finding the case still wrapped in cellophane

[it] could be in reference to anything, but I am head-deep in people writing like Tao Lin [Tao Lin Tao Lin] so probably it was in reference to -- nevermind.

Anyway, so I did that
then I was thinking about how crappy it is to buy a bunch of movies and never watch them, commercialism etc, poor sad movies just like poor sad books that sit on shelves

and I reached for the next DVD. Goldmember

What a stupid fucking movie, I thought.

I opened the case anyway, even though I figured I should just throw it out (it was given to me by a sad, misinformed person)

and what the fuck is in there? The Lewis Black DVD that went missing five years ago.

WHAT? WHY?
