Quotes
Everything must be so swell when the feed is turned off.
We went to the moon to have fun, but the moon turned out to completely suck.
I am seriously unhappy to this very day.
We went to the hospital, because there were kids who had the lesions all over them. They were crying and staring at the feed, and these stupid ads for clothes and a new car and a vacation kept flashing up in front of them.
It just makes me feel like things are happening. I like it that I'm in the know.
I want to see the lesions. I want to see the lesions and the sores.
I don't know, man. I get the weird feeling that I'm being watched. Like, I get this really creepy feeling sometimes.
You want to be a lawyer? You want to defend people and then have them go to jail anyway? That's stupid.
Everything we do is for the feed.
I'm so embarrassed, I don't want to do anything.
We have these ridiculous things on the feed about how it's so great to fight. It's so great to fight, and right below that, there's a commercial for, like, a new flame thrower or something.
I don't want to be a spectacle. I just want to be. I just want to be, and that's it.
