Thanks to Scott for bringing this to my attention. I think that thinking about death is sooo funny.
It’s your last joke/prank – you trick people into thinking that you are still alive, but you’re dead!
This is really just a way to advertise my show that is happening tonight that is about death, but also to talk briefly about how much I think crying and laughing are similar.
They are the only two tangible embodiments of emotion we display. The rest is all people inferring. They are the only two that are obvious and guttural. That you can’t stop even if you try. I stopped doing theater because I wasn’t causing enough people to cry or laugh. Because people kept telling me that that wasn’t the point. That you could just think. But I didn’t want the audience to passively be approached and asked: “hey, do you mind thinking, now?” No. I wanted to throat fuck them with things they didn’t want to deal with. Actively demand that they react.
I like writing entries where I do the opposite of what I’m saying is good.
Come see my show to see me do what I say and not as I do.
