YOUR SECOND FAMILY: CATENARY


 











Jen R: you gotta practice with different people around the world to see how you fit in, how you would blend into their family. because you need to transition out of your family into a new one.
me: for stability.
Jen: everyone goes through this, they marry, move out, move in again.
me: who first?
Jen: your tooth has hurt like the motherfucking dickens for some time now, yeah?
me: my whole life.
Jen: do the dentist.

me at the dentist office.
me: so doc.
dentist: don't call me doc, i'm a dentist.
me: so dentist, which cap should i get for my tooth after you drill the fuck out of it?
dentist: your tooth will be gone, leaving only a massive hole. and immense pain. i recommend getting the GOLD cap rather than the plastic cap, it lasts longer and you look like a cool rapper.
me: can i rap a love song from me to you? about toothcaps. and the gap in love. in the lyrics i explain how much i care for you.

me: i had a dream where Spalding Gray was teaching me how to mold clay.
Spalding Gray: now they're saying Splenda is bad for you. i did Splenda for 40 years to AVOID sugar!!! you can't win, you simply have to choose your food and stick with it for life.

me: remember Jenny Jones makeovers?
Jenny Jones: i invented the Daytime makeover. not that dusty bitch Sally Jessy Raphael.
Jen R: it felt so good for those women who could finally step out into the daylight again, their lives forever changed overnight after one treatment. new workplaces, new hair, new habits. and then Fabio would come out from backstage and go on a date with them.
Fabio: these muscles are from the butter diet.

Jen R: okay there's Meghan Markle. you know what to do, treat her like any other person.
me: hey you're kinda cute. you got a man?
Meghan Markle: i mean...
me: two husbands, think about it.........i need some help.
Megan: what's the magic word?
me: how are you?
Megan: thank you. i know a medium you can see. NOT a part of the Royal Family, independent.

self-scrip: why people become doctors.

those tan-color Crayola crayons: your favorite color.

Jen: any tats?
me: i got a tattoo of a tai-chi symbol for T&C Surf Designs. a cross that was supposed to be skinny but turned out fat. and a Chinese symbol that to this day i have no idea what it means.

Colin Jost: only Olympic surfers can wear pooka shells...

me: in my dream i'm with Lucio Rossi in his treehouse in Sherman Oaks on a leisurely chilly Saturday afternoon in the '80s, nothing to do all day but play Nintendo into the night, Spy Hunter
Lucio Rossi: i was the kid with Nintendo hooked up to a TREEHOUSE...
me: but then it turns out Lucio this whole time was Serano...
Jen: it's time for you to meet new people.

Jen: in my dream it's a beautiful 1910s starry ballroom. the last dance before the war. the women look so pretty in our gowns and frowns. the men are ciphers. we're all group-singing all the songs off the new Smashing Pumpkins album Aghori Mhori Mei.
Billy Corgan: for good luck in the war. you know all the songs on this latest album really do fit that time period.
Jen: Billy, why are you always complaining about how much your life sucked? the only people who had room to complain were the Lost Generation...

Luigi foots the bill, pays the tab, on all delivered food, after FINALLY winning a kart race...
Super Mario: you cheated with the blue shell.
Luigi: that's the point, bro.

Ted Danson in the starry ballroom: imagine a life where you have the luxury of taking ballroom-dancing lessons...

Nyjah Huston: the problem is the chip, the piece of Eiffel Tower in my Bronze Medal, was from when the Eiffel Tower was red...

Roger Federer with a Singles gold medal: the Olympics should be a year-round sport like tennis.

Super Mario: me and my men are the leaf blowers from the Beck "Loser" music video, not Wes Anderson gardeners who trim hedges. Jack in the Box, a burger place for tacos, that is so California.

pole vaulter: my bulge cost me an Olympic medal. should i be flattered? no, without that Olympic medal i won't get anywhere in life. i won't star in the Young Einstein sequel. i wanted my wife to wear a wedding kimono.

art is an explosion: before Deidara, a Sailor Moon photographer.
Andy Warhol: who cares? art is dead. i'm dead. Superflat is all that matters now.
