Dazed and Confused - Confronting Misanthropy and Career Aspirations
Mike:
Look, I've got a confession to make.
Tony:
What do you mean a confession?
Mike:
You know how for like the last year or so I've been talking about going to law school so I can become a ACLU lawyer to be in a position to help people getting fucked over and all that? Well I'm standing in line at the post office yesterday, you know, and I'm looking around and everybody's looking really pathetic. You know what I mean? Like people have just got drool sticking there, and like this guy's bending over and you can see the crack of his ass. It was all just, like, wife beaters, it was.. Anyway, I realize that I just don't want to do it. You know what I mean? It sounds good and all, but I just have to confront the fact that I really don't like the people I've been talking about helping out. You know what I'm saying? I don't like people period. I mean you guys are okay. I don't know. I'm just trying to be honest about being a misanthrope.
Tony:
So you're not going to law school? What do you want to do?
Mike:
I wanna dance!

God, don't you ever feel like everything we do and everything we've been taught is just to service the future?
Tony:
Yeah I know, like it's all preparation.
Cynthia:
Right. But what are we preparing ourselves for?
Mike:
Death.
Tony:
Life of the party.
Mike:
It's true.
Cynthia:
You know, but that's valid because if we are all gonna die anyway shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now? You know, I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor insignificant preamble to something else.
