Graduating from high school provided a valid excuse never to go back. The military and war did the same. Marriage can do that for many people. Investing money with some trusted-but-corrupt muther-fuckers, now in prison, will definitely say, "Don't go there anymore!" I'd like a piece of devil's food cake with chocolate frosting. That's something worth going back to. Newspapers? Nah! Not even for wrapping fish. Has anyone ever tested paper towels for toxins? What if paper towels were made in and exported from China? Think they'd test positive for heavy metals?
The spray-paint industry, like the military industrial complex, is making a killing, though. It's a high test of intelligence and survival for young men to obtain cans of spray paint so they can go SNEAKING AROUND tagging the private property of strangers. When some of the same little pricks see the military as a 'way out,' they quickly learn what it's like when their 'victims' shoot back. I think of all the sissy gangbangers now in Iraq and Afshanistan, crying in their sleeves and blankets, "Mommy! Mommy! Come get me away from this!" I want to go back to cruising the hood and spray painting people's fences and garages and bridge abutments and commercial trucks and freight trains. An' then I go home where mommy or grandma has prepared me a nice, big, warm meal so I can go back out later and tag more private property, maybe do a drive-by shooting or two to restore my manhood. That war shit was too intense, homes! Here, back in the USA, the gun and paint people love me! Toto, there's no place like home! There's no place like home!"
This is by far your best animation so far. Funny in a tragic way that there's only one other coment here. Or maybe it's not tragic. Maybe it means many of your readership is like me, under 30. I happened to see metropolis in collage but I bet most of your readers have never seen a silent movie and had no idea what the cut screens to text were all about. But maybe since no one comment it means you're losing touch with the young bucks. So it goes as Vonnegut might have said.
