Your sure as hell right about that. |
I'm not doing it anywhere, Jeff. It's just part of my application to the School of Visual Arts in New York. |
"The worst I can do is starve to death." Listen to you. |
I don't want to hear it anymore. |
No, no, no. Yyou know what? Yyour packing your bags, you're jumping into the unknown because some conceptual artist who teaches at a community college is having a midlife crisis and he wants to sleep with some girl half his age, so he tells you you have talent. |
Mister Brooks has had shows in New York, Jeff. He's been reviewed in Art Forum. I think he knows. |
Oh, well, then you better listen to him. |
Well, fuck! Might as well not do anything! Let's just stick out thumbs up our asses and twirl. |
What are you trying to communicate? Tell us. |
So you can give me more shit? |
No, no. It's an honest question. What are you trying to communicate? |
I'm trying to communicate how I feel, Jeff. You know raise consciousness. Make people think for a change. |
Yes, you asshole. |
About what? |
About things that are important to me. |
Like what? |
Sexual politics, racism, the environment, the military industrial... |
Of course I do! |
Name one. |
God, KAREN JOHNSON. |
One! |
Your completely missing the point. |
Hey! |
I'm talking about idealism. |
No, idealism is guilty, middle class bullshit. |
No, sweetie. Cynicism is bullshit. |
No, no, no. I'm not being cynical, I'm being honest. |
But do you stand for anything? |
Yes, I stand for |
What? What do you stand for? |
I stand for honesty! I stand for some level of truth! |
Oh, yeah, right. Yeah, right. Fuck you. |
Can I talk here? Let me talk. |
You know, all you know is what's good for you. |
Can I talk? |
Typical male. |
I can't wait till Pony gets here, you know? Have a conversation with a human being? |
Well, if you love him so much, why didn't you go see him play? |
Um, because you didn't want to go. |
Like I'm going to pay twenty bucks to see Neil Moynihan in some band that I helped start. |
Okay. Well, you know, he's always been a nice guy and I like him. |
This is ridiculous! |
Tim! |
It was a racial incident. |
It was just something that got out of hand. Did anyone get hurt? |
It got that close. |
Okay, but nothing happened. Believe me, if I thought something really bad was going to happen, I would've done something. |
Oh, yeah? |
Yeah. |
Okay, what would you have done. |
I would've stopped it. |
How? |
I don't know. I would've done something. This is kind of hypothetical, isn't it? This place is so stupid. I can't believe we're sitting here in this moshpit of consumerism. With all these people eating their chunks of dead flesh... |
Jeff. Jeff. |
... like fucking robots. Look at those kids there. |
Jeff. You know, I was talking to Mister Brooks yesterday. He has this friend in New York who wants to sublet his apartment for sixfifty a month. I could swing that. Sixfifty. |
Sooze. |
What? |
Did it ever occur to you that I might have some feelings about you moving to New York? |
What feelings? |
Us. |
Of course. |
And? |
Come with me. |
No, no, see, that's not what I'm saying. I could go to New York if I wanted to, but what's the point? So I can learn how to order a cappuccino? So I can get mugged by some crackhead? So I can see, see homeless people up close and personal? |
So what do you wanna do? |
Nothing. |
No one does nothing, Jeff. |
Okay, well, then, I'm gonna break new ground. |
New ground? |
Mmhm. |
Taking one community college course on the history of Nicaragua, while barely holding a job packing boxes? |
Okay, look. My job is not who I am. I don't need that. Why? What's your goal? Status? Money? Getting your picture on the cover of some glossy magazine? |
My goal is to make art. |
So, what, why can't you do that here? What's wrong with here? Why is somewhere else better? |
Why should I stay here, Jeff? So we can sit on the corner and watch the lights change, while you bitch about Burnfield? |
Mmmm. |
So I can spend the rest of my life guessing what it would be like to be a real artist? |
No, no. |
So you and I can fuck while your parents are out having dinner at the Sizzler? What are we doing, Jeff? You and me? |
I don't know. |
Yeah, uh, that would depend, but yeah. She should. |
Mm. |
Yeah, but that doesn't mean that your tree is not artistic if no one cuts it down. |
Jeff likes to argue for the sake of arguing. |
No, I don't. |
Yes, you do. |
No, I don't. |
You do. |
No, I don't. |
FUCK! Pony, if we wanted to hear you sing, we would've gone to your concert! |
Jeff! |
So you sold ninety thousand units. So what? Does that mean you're a genius? You're a great artist? You're higher up the ladder? You got an extra gold star on your fuckin' forehead? |
Come on. |
No. No, no, no. |
Come on. I'm not gonna go if you don't come. |
No, I just don't feel like it. That's all. |
Why don't you just try? Please. For me. Come on. |
Oh, hi. I thought you guys got lost. |
Hey, where did you go? We were worried about you. |
