I'm currently working on a Sir Reginald story that really doesn't want to fit together and also a new Fuckbrain Comix, but for now let's hear from serial killer Edmund Kemper.

I think that the most fascinating thing about people like this is how matter-of-fact they are, and how they think that they've got themselves and society figured out. I'm not talking the sort of "I'm wise and you're fools" bullshit that Charles Manson peddles, I'm talking about a guy who almost makes sense sometimes just before his logic and explanations completely break down.

It seems to me that he thinks he understands himself and why he did the things he did, but that it's just out of our reach.

Sadly, in interviews like this I never hear the question that I want to ask these people.

"What do you think we see when we look at you and how is that different from what you see?"

A) I love my wife. When I send her an e-mail that only says:

     "Me is good. I like turtles."

     she responds with

     "Oh my god.  Me too!  Let's get married."

B) I ripped a simply preposterous scene from a Hong Kong film called Running Out of Time 2. The original film is fantastic, but the sequel is just sorta a rehash of the first film. They both star one of my favorite actors, Lau Ching Wan, as a terrifically clever cop. In this movie he's chasing a master thief who's also a magician / escape artist.

The point is: THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CHASE SCENES EVER. It's just...yeah. It simply is, mostly because of its WTFedness. And it just more and more preposterous the longer it goes, until it almost dips into some strange form of surrealism.

I left two minutes of fun intro and then you get seven minutes of "Are You Serious? They're Not Done Yet? Did He Just...Wait, Was That...The Hell?"

The thief is played by actor / pop-star Ekin Cheng, who sings the song that plays during the last leg of the chase. I think it hit the upper end of the HK music charts.

Anyway, please to enjoy.

I love that, through my family's extensive genealogical records, I now know that I am descended from people with names like Zacharia and Ebenezer

Also, fucking lunar eclipse right now, bitches.

The galaxy is dead fucking brilliant.

Also also, it pays to buy straight from the artist, especially when a big chain is ripping off their images.
