https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2009/08/28/razed-expectations-inglourious-basterds-review
Razed Expectations: Inglourious Basterds Review. More than any of his work since. Is a magic-eye illusion — an honest-to-God film wrapped in a helluva movie. So as not to ruin it ( it’s a schooner. Know now that this review contains SPOILERS. Throughout; read it AFTER the movie. In the first place,. Is a blast, a popcorn-inhaling, hyperreal. These critics stare at the magic eye illusion and see. Jules’ final monologue. In which the villainous creatures go to the movies and watch. Theatrical audience....

…Learn Faster | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2010/06/05/learn-faster
One of the songs in rotation in my car for this road trip is “Know Better Learn Faster” by Thao and the Get Down Stay Down. Great tune, and also the unofficial theme song of this blog, for all the obvious reasons. Today I made it through Utah and into Colorado. Stopping in Denver for the night, then it’s onto the midwest tomorrow. You’re currently reading “…Learn Faster,” an entry on Know Better. June 5, 2010 / 2:54 pm. Jump to comment form.

I Got My Philosophy: Final Thoughts on Atlas Shrugged | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2009/06/06/i-got-my-philosophy
I Got My Philosophy: Final Thoughts on Atlas Shrugged. Back when this blog was blogged on the regular, I wrote a series of posts. Grappling with Ayn Rand’s. Digesting the ideas in the book and finding voice for my response. This epic post definitively concludes that process. Likewise, I felt my reaction to the book was informed by a difference in metaphysical value-judgments between myself and the author, though I was not entirely conscious of, nor able to articulate, the root of our divergence.

In the Shadow of the Statue | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2009/05/07/in-the-shadow-of-the-statue
In the Shadow of the Statue. What that presents is a very weird situation where Desmond initiates time travel by detonating Jughead at the Swan in 2004, resulting in a time warp that ends with Jack detonating Jughead at the Swan in 1977. Paradox much? In 1977 and always was, but it doesn’t. In the timeline until 2007, on the other end of a time-flash, when the fact of it pops out the other end of the wormhole in spacetime with the time-travelers. May 7, 2009 / 6:14 pm.

Leaving LA | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2010/06/04/leaving-la
Set off on my road trip back to the east coast today and figured I’d do some light blogging as a capstone to this blog, which has lain dormant for a year and is going into retirement once I arrive in Boston. For today, here’s a short prose poem I wrote about Los Angeles a few months ago when I was returning there instead of leaving. Ah the city of angels, where the devil is the landlord: it’s good to be home. Warner Brothers Pictures, 1942. June 4, 2010 / 3:22 pm. Jump to comment form. You are commenting...

Originally posted at CHUD.com. It has come to my attention that Lorena Bobbitt, infamous ’90s dick dicer, is on today’s. I get that this is a “Where Are They Now? 8221; segment, but would we revel in superficial pop nostalgia over a wacky. Famous for beating his.

WTF The Police | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2009/07/29/wtf-the-police
If President Barry thought Sgt. Crowley handled Prof. Gates stupidly, I wonder what he thinks about the cop who stuck his taser up a guy’s butt and pulled the trigger. Maybe it’s just a passing ripple in the new media waters but I’ve seen a lot of stories lately about police using excessive force in outrageous or perverse circumstances. Prof. Gates’ groundless arrest dominated a week of TV “news” cycles;. The other night featured a segment. Between the 9-1-1 call. And Crowley’s police report. But at root...

Elegy for the Man Who Was Too Clever By Half | Know Better

Elegy for the Man Who Was Too Clever By Half. After the debate about MMF threesomes but before the mac and cheese, I discovered a “Poem a Day” book on the kitchen counter while spending some quality time with a few White Lights. This deep breath and I. The shallow air, where. Over-dosed and slight light-headed. I misplaced my savoir faire. Back to atmosphere I can drink in,. Comfortable in contradiction,. Where when I will. I will will well,. December 6, 2009 / 11:36 am. Jump to comment form. I Got My Ph...

Current Events in <100 Characters | Know Better
https://knowbetter.wordpress.com/2009/04/27/current-events-in-100-characters
Current Events in 100 Characters. More in-depth political analysis is coming this week, but for today, I’m just going to reproduce some twitter poetry like a lazy bastard:. Obama’s 1st 100 Days. To start, but given time you realize. Its much smarter than you. Seems like an over the top parody of real life,. And given time,. Turns out it is. We’re paying shitty rich guys to ruin. All of our childhood dreams. Without justice, as morally bankrupt acts. And a fifth blog-only bonus:. Human Impact on the Earth,.
