Former Merc food critic (and current bon vivant) Patrick Alan Coleman just sent me the following video, which is kind of the most perfect thing I’ve ever seen. It’s entitled “BR Handskills 01” (“BR” apparently stands for “Battle Roulette”) and perhaps taken individually, each of the video’s visual elements aren’t all that interesting. BUT PUT TOGETHER? Holy mother of god. When I die, I want to live in this world.
Face Hearts to PAC.

That painting on the door? I have that in my basement.
WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WATCH?! IS THIS BUZZ MARKETING FOR SOMETHING?!
The props are placed perfectly. Internet gems, internet gems.
entrancing. I am entranced now.
A single tear is now running down my cheek from all that wondrous beauty.
AMAZING!
WHERE IS MY SWORD AND GRANDMOTHER?
(and maybe super chill dog, too?)
What does it say about the state of the modern world that the first thing I thought of when I watched that was “what are they selling?”?
@ Zed and Graham:
Don’t fret, I thought the same thing too. This meeting of the Portland Cynics Club is hereby adjourned! (SLAM!)
Some sort of Napoleon Dynamite sequel or spinoff? That music isn’t my fave, but I guess it beats Jamiroquai.

I can’t decide if it’s real or not! Fuck! This is another one by the same person:

Same Grandma/beer bit, same plastic bag hanging there, another velvet painting.
Should my ability to enjoy it be affected by its “realness”? FUCK.
