57. i'm done with bojack horseman
don't you love a juicy, steamy headline?
okay maybe not if you're the reader clicking the thumbnail. because then you just feel stupid, like a fish that just got baited with some $5 crummy fish food -- not even good enough for some high-class worm. a fish that needs to go to summer school because it really doesn't understand geometry.
get it? school? because fish travel in schools? i'm here all night, folks!
but if you're the writer or the advertiser or whatever the role is in this case, oh well the pleasure is all mine. ALL MINE.
i'm not actually done with bojack horseman. just for the time being. i DID, however, finish watching all the episodes in season 6, the last season. so technically i am sort of done. i guess the proper term is finished. i'm not done because this show is a part of me now. it's stuck with me in my thoughts and it's probably going to continue to stick with me for quite some time. maybe i watch it again. in fact, i'd love to watch it again after some time.
i wonder. when i do, who i will be then? will i still watch it over ramen and $11 wine? will i still look up the life of each actor, obsessing over footage posted online of them voice acting? will i still blog at 2:52 am?
when i do, what will i notice in the show? will i get to share my passion for this show with someone in real life?
when i do, where will i be? on a couch in my own apartment? living with someone else? in a fight with that person? making amends? traveling on a plane to incheon? in a motel by myself? in a lounge during a study break?
i'm the type of person who's quick to say, "that changed my life." sometimes i mean it, sometimes i don't. sometimes i mean it when it's not true. sometimes i don't mean it when it's true. it's a fun, mysterious thing to say.
bojack horseman changed my life. i am hopeful, melancholy, stunned and happy.
