I just had to share part of a brief phone conversation that i just had with my friend A. Only one word describes it.... BIZARRE!
A: did you catch Rudolph on the tube?
Me: Yep.
A: Everytime i see it i want to cry.
Me: Cry? Why?
A: Are you kidding? Rudolph represents everything thats wrong with society! (slight tremble in her voice)
Me: Alright, i'll bite. You're gonna have to explain this one to me.
A: Well... Look at Rudolph... His big red nose made him an outcast among his people...uh, reindeer peers...whatever...It's classic! He's the skinny, smart kid that everyone picks on. He's the homeless guy on every corner. He's every underdog. And WE are the punk reindeer kids! WE are Rudolph's tormentors!
Me: Hmmm...Well, thats one way to look at it....(long pause to stuff popcorn in my mouth)... Or maybe Rudolph is just a cute holiday claymation created to entertain children.
A: Yeah.I can see that too... OK, talk to ya later.
Me: Later.
