It has come to my attention...

That Roger Rabbit was released 15 years ago.

I am 30.

Half my life ago, I was watching an animated hare drive a live action detective crazy. Bob Hoskins with a bunny in his pants.

Good lord. It sucks having timelines jump up and kick you in the face. Fucking timelines.

It sucks more when you're only 28. It was MORE than half a lifetime ago for me, Charlie.

YEah, so you're 28. You're not 30 yet.

Half your life being 15 years ago is worse than being 14 years ago.

How about being 23? I was eight.

Additional scary thought: Back to the Future came out 18 years ago.

I saw that twice in the theater!

Good times.

Hello, McFly!

Crispin Glover is a great guy. I'm tempted to see Willard.

Or at least buy the DVD set.

Ahem.

If you ever complain about feeling old at 23 again, I will drive down to Hamilton and beat you to death with a two foot rubber cock bought at wholesale.

This is a friendly warning.

Another fun thought: There are people drinking, legally, today who were not alive when Return of the Jedi came out.

I know, my brother's one of them. :/

That's why I'm finding retro '80s music less amusing - I keep hearing songs and thinking 'wow - that was a great song when it came out... 20 fucking years ago!!!

But never mind this - tell us what you thought of Clausewitz!

Re:

Actually, I hear a lot of '80s music for the first time, since I grew up in strange circumstances (spending more on comics than moosic).

And I'm only a few pages into On War. Had to finish reading (although not finish the actual book) Hunter S. Thompson's Fear and Loathing in America: The Gonzo Papers Pt II.
