Fuck Toy Story 3, Man.

It bummed me the hell out. Uh, spoiler alert? It's the bookend to the Toy Stories and it's about with toys going to like, toy-retirement and even at one point dealing with all the deep feelings that come with the end-all oblivion. I mean, what the fuck, Pixar? Movies are meant to be used a device for escapism . We watch movies to go someplace else and forget about the little nuances of life ie: aging, death, etc. We don't go there to have the idea implied that it's OK to just accept the uncomfortable inevitability of death. And the fact that they're showing this to kids just fucking depresses me.

What the fuck is with the entertainment industry right now? Fucking Toy Story 3, Up, Lost; all those shows are just bring me the fuck down.

Nobody else seems bothered by this. I want to see some kids movies showing alcoholism and drug abuse. Point out there's no Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, or Santa. Tell them all of their dreams probably have a 96% chance of not coming true. Tell 'em it don't matter because you're just gonna kick the bucket anyway. Take it as far as you will. Why pick and choose? Why lie about anything at all? First the window and then it's to the wall.

I guess it just bugs me to have people tell me (or anybody) that it's okay to die just because we know it's going to happen one day. You know why I think people smoke cigarettes? Not because they actively want to kill themselves, but because deep down they know they're all ready dead and doing something blatantly bad to themselves, they know that they are, in fact, still alive.

I think I just dissected the point of this entire blog (see title). Congrats if you made it this far.
