“Smoking is Good
(Sonnet Satire, 1320)
Smoking is good for the planet,
For it screws with the lungs.
Alcohol is good for the planet,
For it screws with the brain.
Bullets are good for the planet,
They riddle the body with holes.
Bombs are good for the planet,
They blow up all, body and soul.
Autocracies are good for the planet,
They cause civilizations to fall.
Mindless tech is good for the planet,
Our biggest wonder will be our downfall.
Whatever kills the humans, heals the planet.
Forget AI, human greed is the biggest threat.”

Smoking is, in effect a dignified sport.”

“Smoking pot makes people talk for long periods of time, for instance, so people who advocate pot won't shut the hell up about it. On the other hand, no one really needs to defend drinking.

Pot doesn't cause people to do that. I did a show in Amsterdam a few months ago, and people weren't yelling stuff out at all. They also weren't laughing very much, but I think they were still having a good time.”

Biti leš, to je nepodnošljiva uvreda. Još prije nekoliko sekundi biti ljudsko biće koje je branilo svoj stid, posvećenost golotinje i intimitet, a zatim tek sekunda smrti da bi naše tijelo odjednom bilo na raspolaganju bilo kome, da ga se može razgolititi, razrezati, pregledavati mu utrobu gadljivo začepljena nosa zbog njezinog smrada, gurnuti u hladnjak ili u vatru.”
