Tearing Into Bad Movies While Trying to Read Myself Correctly
March 16, 2022 Lehan Edirisinghe
The page starts with Ukraine and small class markers like milk-in-first tea, then collapses into a furious takedown of a terrible film, fast-reading and screenwriting thoughts, guilt and suicidal self-blame over my father's death, and the insistence that entertainment is all performance anyway.

Why Putting Milk in Tea First Became a Class Marker

I know this story. You always put the cream or milk in after the tea. It's a class thing. People say, "she or he is a really milk in first type" to put people down.

I'm reading John Truby's the art of storytelling in a number of steps.
22 steps. to being the Illuminati basically.
Taylor or Jacques.
I don't know.
Umm..
Uhh
I think in Scarface (1932), they, umm, they had something called, "Story Script" or "Story Play" instead of "screen play". It was peculiar.
This movie came out before WW2. It's crazy, beyond myself, how, there was entertainment and yet, those days, the people were faring so poorly...
I think this book, is a bit more difficult to read, to scan through, so I will take longer, as I must slow down to make sense of information.

BUT, I am still here. I still did get through all of that. I think when I get money, I will buy food. Shanika failed badly, Palith too, they weren't good parents. The problems I'm facing now are their fault.
Wanting a Teleprompter and Claiming to Have Caused Serious Damage
5:30 a.m.
(b)
I'm quite lazy. Just like Gota, or Ranil, or Premadasa, or Solomon or this or that motherf---er.
But I guess, I have told them... I want a teleprompter. It's a waste of my time to memorize anything.
