LINE OF THE DAY, part IX

      I stumbled upon a Wiki page of Anonymous quotes (use them with impunity folks!) while seeking proper attribution of the line "Don't take life too seriously...you'll never get out of it alive" when something I remembered hearing from a comedian while in college came to mind. This exchange, attributed to the movie Play It Again Sam, was found in the commentary on this site. (and for the record, it seems there is no source for the quote I was searching for)

      This made me laugh out loud. I am now seriously considering seeing this movie simply because of this exchange alone.

Allan: That's quite a lovely Jackson Pollack, isn't it?

Museum Girl: Yes, it is.

Allan: What does it say to you?

Museum Girl: It restates the negativeness of the universe. The hideous lonely emptiness of existence. Nothingness. The predicament of Man forced to live in a barren, Godless eternity like a tiny flame flickering in an immense void with nothing but waste, horror and degradation, forming a useless bleak straitjacket in a black absurd cosmos.

Allan: What are you doing Saturday night?

Museum Girl: Committing suicide.

Allan: What about Friday night?
