I love it when the stupidest things make me smile.
I was sitting on my bed a little while ago, reading this book by Jack Kerouac I've had for a while, I've been meaning to read it for ages. Anyway, I was really getting into it when it got to this conversation, which I find funny for some reason:
"Japhy: well, Coughlin, you old fart, what you been doin?
Coughlin: Nothing.
Alvah: What are all these strang books here? Hm, Pound, do you like Pound?
Japhy: Except for the fact that old fartface flubbed up the name of Li Po by calling him his Japanese name and all such famous twaddle, he was alright - in fact he's my favorit poet.
Ray: Pound? Who wants to make a favorite book out of that pretentious nut?
Jahpy: Have some more wine, smith, you're not making any sense."
and so on. I dont know why I went to all the effort to post this, it just made me smile.
heh
