1/_All train compartments smell vaguely of shit. It gets so you don’t mind it. That’s the worst thing that I can confess. You know how long it took me to get there? A long time. When you die you’re going to regret the things you don’t do. You think you’re queer? I’m going to tell you something: we’re all queer. You think you’re a thief? So what? You get befuddled by a middle-class morality? Get shut of it. Shut it out. You cheat on your wife? You did it, live with it. You fuck little girls, so be it. There’s an absolute morality? Maybe. And then what? If you think there is, go ahead, be that thing. Bad people go to hell? I don’t think so. If you think that, act that way. A hell exists on earth? Yes. I won’t live in it. That’s me. Did you ever take a dump that made you feel like you just slept for 12 hours?… or a piss? Great meals fade in reflection, everything else gains, you know why? cause they’re only food, the shit we burn out… it’s only food. The great fucks you may have had, what do you remember about ’em?
2/_What do I remember?
1/_I dunno, for me… I’m saying what it is…it probably wasn’t the orgasm… some broad’s forearm on your neck… something her eyes did, there was that sound she made, I’m tellin’ ya, the next day I’m lyin’ in bed, she brings me a café-olé and a cigarette, my balls feel like concrete. I’m saying … What is our life? Our life is looking forward or looking back, that’s it, that’s our life. What is it we’re so afraid of?? Loss, what else? The bank closes? We get sick? My wife died on a plane. The stock-market collapsed, a lot of these things happen. Why do we worry, anyway? Why?
1: How was her coffeecake?
2: Hmm? Oh… storebought.
1: Fuck her.
1: We don’t gotta sit here and listen to this.
2: You sure don’t pal, ’cause the good news is – you’re fired!

2: You see this watch? You see this watch?
1: Yeah.
2: That watch costs more than you car. I made $970,000 last year. How much you make? You see pal, that’s who I am, and you’re nothing. Nice guy, I don’t give a shit. Good father, fuck you! Go home and play with your kids! You wanna work here, close! You think this is abuse? You think this is abuse, you cocksucker? You can’t take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a sit?
