Those are some pretty friendly zombies. Smile

Being able to sit and laugh at not only the world, but yourself makes living quite an enjoyable experience.

So you are asking people to follow what you say, but not follow what you do?

No, I haven't said that at all. People can do whatever the fuck they like. I was simply pointing out the artist's intended message in a film, where have I been asking anything of anyone??????

You are criticizing consumers, you even said "I am part of the problem too" when you self admittedly enjoy and voluntarily partake in consumerism.

Why should anyone listen to you if you don't even pass your own test of morality.

I don't expect people to listen to me. Why would you think I would? You are assuming a great deal here, and looking too far into my words.

And test of morality? Wtf? Tongue

It gets a lot of hate for it having only the name in common with the book. It is one of my favourite books, so you can imagine the pain when they make something like that. Tongue
This. Hollywood couldn't have butchered the book more thoroughly if they tried. I went to see the movie opening weekend and it made me want to cry. Everything that made the book great was tossed aside.
