Movie Talk
I don't usually watch indie movies, or chick movies. I only watch Survivorman and porn. This morning, though, to break the monotonous pattern, I watched a Sundance film called "Adam" about a guy named Adam who has a disease called Ass Burgers. Ass Burgers basically means your socially retarted. Its directly related to autism but its not as bad, and hes not as smart as autistic people. The movie is about him coming out of his introspective shell to try to be with a pretty girl that has recently moved into his apartment building.
Watching the movie got me pondering upon what it would be like to lack the ability to process my own emotions. If I felt sad, I wouldn't know what to do about it. If I felt happy, I wouldn't see the correlation between the feeling and the cause of the feeling. The world would be a confusing place. So dizzying, that I would probably retreat to my mind 24/7, unless a pretty girl moved into my apartment building, in which case I would try to do her. If I tried to tap that as I am now, I would certainly succeed. However, if I had Ass Burgers, I might fail because I would be unable to respond to the girl's emotional needs, and we all know how hysteric women can get when you don't know what they're thinking all of the time. If I had Ass Burgers, I would use it as an excuse to touch boobies.
