2. Far out and totally groovy, man.
There is a reality, outside the one made to placate us. You've been there, haven't you?

And true reality, buried, buried beneath faux contempt.

You've seen it. I know you have.

The true reality.

Mushrooms, peyote, open our eyes to reality.

oh no, I've said too much, I have not said enough...

3. Just imagine......
If MORE sensations were involved than just sight and sound. We might have to call them smellies, or feelies, or grabbies.

6. We snobs call them "films", you peasant
Wait, if someone calls it a "film", I try to avoid seeing it. A "film" is a movie with too much dialog.

"Flicks" is another word, but mostly used hyphenated, as in "Chick-Flick", another movie category I avoid, unless I'm looking to get laid, which, wait, never mind, I'm going to rent some more chick-flicks.

:hi:
