So I got stoned the other day and was listening to some reggae. As I was listening I noticed the extremely improper grammar of the artist "them be" "tink" "we be" "them improve them skill" and the like. Then I thought about the origins of his phonetics and immediately thought of an island accent combined with a repatriated slave's broken english. Then all of the sudden I started thinking about how awful slavery is and it's long lasting effects on the slave's descendants. These are not the thoughts of a sober Jeff. I rarely think about things like this and in general I think it would be really cool to own someone to do all my chores and work for me. I would treat them well of course, but they would still essentially be muy slave. After that "experience" I really don't feel that way anymore. Marijuana is liberalizing me lol.
Did you want opinions on your thought or our own stories? I think of very nostalgic things that nessecarily didn't happen to me. Almost like I am recalling a Wonder Years show or remeniscing over photos from the 60s/70s/80s. I was walking in a park and I saw "Don't Be a Jerk" stenciled on the upper right corner of a brick wall leading to a shed. I began to make a profile of the kind of kid who would write that. My conclusion was that he was an intelligent kid, often alone and you would be shocked to see him at a party or social gathering. He would wear a blue shirt with orange stripes and there would be a chest pocket. A wirey kid that always looks uncomfortable. Coincidently, thoughts like the above have inspired me to write a few scripts/stories about a small off kilter town with sub plots about 15 to 19 year olds. It would be quite the opposite of The OC, instead of exaggerating stereotypes I would put weight on fleshing out the uniqueness in peoples characters. Where things aren't as clear cut as I feel great or bad. Closure wouldn't always occur and the plot wouldn't be based on arguments or achievements. Maybe a story could be just kids walking through a big forested park with various conversations going on and observations. Heavy dialouge. There would be a little whimsical/eery feel to it, for example if I ever filmed this it would definetly be in soft focus. Despite the explanation I think the ideas sound really good in my head, and as we all know words can only convey a fourth of what you are trying to say.
No opinions, just kind of sharing an experience and asking if this happens to other people. LifeLove that's exactly how I think when high alone, if I'm with other people I'm sufficiently distracted from my own thoughts.
that is a great idea for a tv show.. it would b tight cuz it would show what life really is like for a teen, not that stupid shit on the oc and stuff. Great Idea
i would like to have a slave eskimo, i would feed it afcourse, i like its fur, just dont know wer to get penguin from, lol imaghine having like 10slaves, like one packing ur bongs, the other one picking ur seeds etc, u could just sit there with someone rolling a joint for u, and u could reward it with candy treats for it, man u inspired me to spnd the next half hour before i got to bed to think about this -stoned first time in 3days
philosophical moment. i love having revolutionary thoughts like this( when stoned other wise it doesnt matter to me)
