Long Slow Goodbye

Als Ergänzung für zu lange Artikel auf wasted time und zu kurze Tweets auf Twitter kommt jetzt der quick'n'dirty Microblog Long Slow Goodbye.
When I see people wearing Crocs, I know immediately that we have nothing in common, and that we could never be friends or have any meaningful kind of relationship. Fashion tips for women from a guy who knows dick about fashion.
This was suddenly an Epic War of File Formats, a fight to the death between the forces of good and evil, with good and evil being defined depending on whose side you were on. Microsoft Word, RIP: 1983 - 2009 - Ars Technica
Super Moderating Hero: Giant Frying Pan would like to know if you’re feeling better. Apparently you posted on Twitter that you were “sick”. Even household objects care. Tim Schafer: Oh man. We had something like the Swine Flu here at Double Fine and it took out half the team for a week. Double Swine. I was in the UK during most of it, but I caught the tail end of it. Tail of the swine! But luckily I have superhuman immunity due to my enormous physical strength and I endured. All better now. Thanks for asking! Live Brutal Legend interview Live Q&A - Eurogamer
Das funktioniert nicht eine Sekunde, und es macht Michael Bay noch lange nicht zu so etwas wie einem Regisseur – oder “Transformers II” überhaupt zu einem… Film. Transformers - Die Rache (Review) | Die Fünf Filmfreunde
Michael Bay wants us all to lower our standards and accept shit like this. Don’t. A LOT of TRANSFORMERS 2 reviews - Ain’t It Cool News
I FELL ASLEEP. For half an hour. The loudest film of all time and I fucking nodded off halfway through - if that doesn’t stand as a testament to how monumentally boring this film is then I don’t know what will. A LOT of TRANSFORMERS 2 reviews -  Ain’t It Cool News
What a colossal piece of SHIT. Seriously, you have no idea what I went through with this movie - it’s the closest I have come in my not-exactly-rosy life to actually wanting to die. Let’s get this straight - I didn’t like Transformers, I don’t like Michael Bay and I think Shit The Beef is quite possibly the worst ‘rising star’ to come out of Hollywood since Orlando Bloom, so I wasn’t exactly predisposed to enjoying this movie, but Jesus Christ. This was bad beyond my expectations. A LOT of TRANSFORMERS 2 reviews - Ain’t It Cool News
Und? Kriegt ihr was in die Fresse?”, ruft eine Frau dem Björn durch den Regen zu. “Nö”, sagt der Björn. Atheisten auf Bustour - Wenn Gottlose auf Touren kommen - Panorama - sueddeutsche.de
It’s angry. It is very yell-y. And most importantly, Travolta ends almost every sentence with “Mother Fucker”. I’m pretty sure he even throws out a “Mother Fucker, Mother Fucker” at one point. Massawyrm says THE TAKING OF PELHAM 123 fizzles out after two good acts… — Ain’t It Cool News

Klingt so, als wäre das nicht mehr deine Welt.
- Ist es auch vielleicht nicht mehr wirklich. Das Immergut war mal ein Familientreffen. Die Leute haben sich entschuldigt, wenn sie sich gegenseitig auf die Füße getreten sind. Das ist mittlerweile seltener geworden, denke ich. Auch zu uns kommt immer mehr Partypublikum, Spinner, die schon um 14 Uhr stramm sind und denen es völlig egal ist, wer gerade auf der Bühne steht. Für die ist Musik nur Fastfood, Hauptsache man kann ein bisschen dazu abspacken.

Michael Haneke told the assembled journalists: “It’s the duty of art to ask questions, not to provide answers. And if you want a clearer answer, I’ll have to pass Cannes in 60 Seconds: Thursday, May 21, 2009 - Cinematical
Der Publizist Roger Willemsen zum Beispiel sagt über sie im Rahmen der “Sonntaz-Frage” in der nächsten Wochenendausgabe der taz: “Der Exzess der Nichtigkeit aber erreicht seinen Höhepunkt, wo Heidi Nazionale mit Knallchargen-Pathos und einer Pause, in der man die Leere ihres Kopfes wabern hört, ihre gestrenge Entscheidung mitteilt und wertes von unwertem Leben scheidet. Da möchte man sechs Sorten Scheiße aus ihr herausprügeln - wenn es nur nicht so frauenfeindlich wäre”. Germany’s Next Topmodel: Heidi Nazionale - taz.de
  • Henry Rollins: So, what’s your latest obsession?
  • Hank Moody: Just the fact that people seem to be getting dumber and dumber, you know? I mean we have all this amazing technology and yet computers have turned into basically 4 figure wank machines. The internet was supposed to set us free, democratise us but all it’s really given us is Howard Dean’s aborted candidacy and 24 hour a day access to kiddie porn. You know, people …. they don’t write anymore, they blog; instead of talking they text, no punctuation, no grammar, LOL this and LMFAO that. You know, it just seems to me that it’s just a bunch of stupid people pseudo communicating with a bunch of other stupid people in a protolanguage that resembles more what cavemen used to speak than the King’s English.”
  • Rollins: Yet you’re part of the problem. I mean, you’re out there blogging with the best of them
  • Hank: Hence my self-loathing.
