small brush shouldn't fuck with big timber

Death's Door, the view from the Spanish announcers table: <strong>didn't you see it coming?</strong>

Friday, February 20

didn't you see it coming?

With all this talk of same sex marriages and the ongoing slap fight that it’s all causing. The 1999 movie “Bicentennial” staring Robin Williams keeps coming to mind. Because to me that movie stirred up so much shit that that no one has yet bothered to answer. Because for centuries, people have fought fuckin epic wars over race, religion, and cultural differences when it came to marriage.

You can’t marry that boy because his tribe sleeps facing the wrong direction.
Jew’s can’t marry non-Jews.
Blacks can’t marry Whites,
boys can’t marry boys, and girls can’t marry girls.
Don’t be marrying your sister cause you’ll end up with the stupid retarded slack jawed kids with the shiny skin.

But here was a movie that dealt with a robot named Andrew that spent over two hundred years trying to become legally human so that he could marry the human woman he fell in love with. His lust for the human was so huge that he stalked this woman, yes stalked, thru almost four generations of her family. Andrew the robot taught himself skills so that he would become invaluable to the human race. He invented shit so as to support his ongoing legal process to become human and take this human woman as his wife.

To have and to hold,
to love and cherish forever,
to grow old and die with.

Didn’t anyone see the fuckin irony this movie displayed? Here is a love story that lasted centuries, written by Isaac Asimov, one of the worlds most respected writers. A story that once you break it down is about nothing less than a walkin, talkin, dildo hut that came to life like a horny Pinocchio and wanted to marry the women of it’s dreams. And nobody saw a fuckin thing wrong with this? The fuckin movie got rave reviews. “A new fairy tale for the ages” A new instant classic”! “Kudos’ to Robin Williams for the performance of his life”! “A bittersweet tale of love”. But did anyone anywhere say “hey, but it’s a robot wanting to marry a human. Isn’t that shit kind of nasty”?

Where was the redneck during all this? “Goddamn Lou, that there lady robot got her some big ole titties on her, don’t she”?
Where was the Pope during all this? “Fuck it, ignore it, maybe it’ll go away”.
Where was the Black man during all of this? “Tha fuck? Oh no he didn’t”?

Do you muthafucker’s feel me on this? I’m just sayin is all.
