Poor stupid girls.
Her: you either fall in love and love them forever or you never really loved them at all.
ME: oh, that's your bull shit, chick flick movie, chocolate eating, notebook watching, online dating, sex and the city, he's just not that into you bull shit side saying nonsense quotes that some chain email told you that if you didn't send it to 25 people and spin in a circle 12 times and count the number of freckles on your arm and divide it by 3.14 while thinking about your perfect man then you'll never get married.
Her: no, it says..
ME: No no no no no. It's such bull shit. Ok. You fall in love with someone and sometimes people change and they're not the person you fell in love with and it's ok that you don't love them anymore. You fell in love with a guy and he was awesome but 2 years later you caught him cheating. You didn't fall in love with him as a cheater, did you? No, you fell in love with him as the awesome guy. He changed. He's not that guy anymore. It's ok to not love him.
Her: ....
ME: It's like the lemon law. Everything ran great on the car when you left the lot. You didn't know the transmission was going bad and someone had illegally changed the mileage on the car. You didn't know it was once used for drug runs to Canada. YOU DIDN'T KNOW THEN. You find out 2 years later and you take the fucking car back and get your money.
Her: ....
ME: Aha! See? I'm right! Sex and the City didn't tell you that. I DID, without any chocolate in my system and never have been Notebook'ed. You tell Taylor Swift to put that in a song, maybe people will get it.

Dogma (1999)
Nun: Let me get this straight: you don't believe in God because of "Alice in Wonderland"?
Loki: No, "Through the Looking Glass". That poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter," that's an indictment of organized religion. The walrus, with his girth and his good nature, he obviously represents either Buddha, or, or with his tusks, the Hindu elephant god, Lord Ganesha. That takes care of your Eastern religions. Now the carpenter, which is an obvious reference to Jesus Christ, who was raised a carpenter's son, he represents the Western religions. Now in the poem, what do they do? What do they do? They, they dupe all these oysters into following them and then proceed to shuck and devour the helpless creatures en masse. I don't know what that says to you, but to me it says that following these faiths based on mythological figures ensures the destruction of one's inner being. Organized religion destroys who we are by inhibiting our actions, by inhibiting our decisions out of, out of fear of some, some intangible parent figure who, who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years ago and says, and says, "Do it... do it and I'll fuckin' spank you."
