You have a choice!
You can either watch The Third Man, which is simply the Greatest Movie Ever Made.
OR you can watch Teen Witch.
It’s the same choice you face when you contemplate making deep, soulful, connected love with a dearly loved partner of many years versus fucking the brains out of some little twink you just picked up in a biker bar.
Naturally, I went for Teen Witch.

Also Tess died in a biking accident in San Francisco on Friday.
One of the Virtuous Millennials who lived with Max in the Northbrae Nookery.
The Virtuous Millennials all blur together in my mind into a single androgynous (of course!) figure who lives on sprouts. Which one was Tess? I’m trying to remember, but I can’t.
This is an ism but not racism. Ageism? As a rule, I don’t like Millennials—no, you self-righteous ants, the Boomers did not fuck up the planet: It was already fucked up by the time we inherited it!—but, of course, it’s a great tragedy when someone so young loses her life, and I am thoroughly ashamed of myself for these glib thoughts.
The victim could just as easily have been Max.
Fly with the angels, Tess! You didn’t deserve to be defeated by a car door.
