But, nothing and everything is here, the universe can’t be real because it came from nothing and nothing can be real so how did it explode, why did it explode when nothing can’t explode, it didn’t so I’m not real so why am I talking to you if you’re not real cos’ there is nothing so I don’t exist so I’m a figment of my imagination but then why do you listen, you ain’t real… Paycheck. Now. ---

Oh yeah, I was going to tell you my observation on their names - Will is the dad, and Willow is the daughter, and Jada is the mom, and Jaden is the son. I only realized this a few months ago. ---

OK, duels with figmented imaginations at dawn! Except neither are real so they won’t show up. We can’t be figments of each other’s imaginations cos’ the imaginations ain’t real so uh…I give up. ---

But I’ll go out into the yard and ask my little Buddha statue, who may or may not exist. For now He says he does. ---

I’m just glad they’re not Canadian. They sound exactly like every hip young celebrity that gets put on a pedestal by the Canadian establishment. That interview would instantly score them a 2-hour daily radio show on the CBC, which they’d hold onto for the next 60 years (while abusing all their employees, of course) ---

Well, my little Buddha got strangled by the Japanese Knotweed, but it’s okay, he says I never existed you been wastin’ your time. So take a long line…huh? ---

But that doesn’t mean people shouldn’t tell them that what they’re saying is basically bullshit. Seriously, can you make sense of any of it? Tell me, what did you find that was so “brilliant?” Go on. They’re just two teenagers trying way too hard to sound deep. Or else they were high when they gave that interview. ---

> [@Flywheel](#): > > [Jaden Smith, Willow Smith, or William Blake?](http://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/jaden-smith-willow-smith-or-william-blake) Wonderful. In mentioning Poe’s law, I thought of Shia LaBeouf (sic) (who apologized for plagiarism with plagiarism) or possible Joaquin Phoenix’s eccentric phase in wondering if we can determine if they are being serious or have some elaborate hoax going on. #10 is Blake, right? Whew. He hated those dark Satanic mills. ---
