BRAIN: Chuck and Buck
SAMIR: saw it
SAMIR: Mike White said it was all based on him thinking about what would happen if one friend grabbed another’s dick while they were in the bathroom
SAMIR: thoughts?
BRAIN: I liked it
BRAIN: creepy yet sweet

SAMIR: I liked Kissed a lot too

BRAIN: Victoria Victrola and the Vaudevillians have a song called Zombie
BRAIN: which has a million verses
BRAIN: it’s about a zombie outbreak and the narrator falls to a zombie, her bf leaving her behind
BRAIN: then as a zombie she finds him and bites him in revenge

SAMIR: interesting… is there an ending though?
BRAIN: presumably they wander around together in undead bliss
SAMIR: hm
SAMIR: that’s not revenge then
BRAIN: no, it’s the genre we were talking about earlier
SAMIR: sweet/creepy
BRAIN: yes

BRAIN: and sure enough when I visited her house she had all this dead shit on the walls
BRAIN: she sort of sheepishly admitted she’s always had a thing for taxidermy
BRAIN: I was in awe
