So, some people are already aware of the fact that I REALLY want to be Jack from World/Inferno Friendship Society. Today, I found that on the band's MySpace, they have a blog titled "What Would Jack Do?", a Q&A with Jack - sort of a Dear Abby thing, but way cooler. And one Q&A made me love/want to be Jack EVEN MORE.
"question: Dear Jack,
Why waltz?
1-because jogging is bad for the knees
2-because it's a dance which allows you to talk to your partner
3-it encourages posture
4-it freaks out the squares
5-it confuses police when they arrive to break up the punk rock show
6-it is a gateway dance to syncopation!
7-holding hands battles anxiety
8-it is how lovers dance in dreams
9-because you have a heart
10- and I would like to dance with you!"
and then I read the next one.
"question: Dear Jack,
Some time ago I became convinced I'd never see the state come crumblin'
down, and gave up days of marching and congressman-calling for nights of
Bacchanalian debauch. Still, I can't fight the lingering feeling that I'm
running away. Is real freedom found within, or is all this drinking and
smoking and window-smashing just turning a blind eye to oppression?
no, no, no- kissing is the most effective tool we have in fighting fascism, don't doubt it and don't stop it."
He's just.. amazing. I want to be him.
"question: What would it take to seduce you dear Jack?
proximity, money and drugs."
