Beer in one hand, Bourbon in the other

Wow. Oh my gosh! I am sitting and it is the end of Dakota. I cannot possibly recollect on the vast amount of different scenes and scenarios that are in the clip. I remember thinking in the beginning that it was on the redneck side with the words like hollerin’ ending in n’ and all the beer but that did not carry through the entire clip. However, it is again near the end: “GØ —STØP — YØUR —TWØ — BUDDIES —FRØM— BEATING— THE —LIVING —DAYLIGHTS— ØUT — ØF— EACH— ØTHER.”

It was weird because there were times when the words were one at a time and changing really fast and I did not think I could read that fast. So, sometimes I would squint to blur my vision and just stare at the screen. Even when I did that I still was processing the words and understanding the words at a high rate of speed. Crazy.

I also wonder how the moving text makes it different and better? If I had just read the poem in stanzas on a page I would probably have quit halfway through and been guilty of trying too hard to understand.

More than once I wanted to press pause and take a break. There is no pause button. At one point it says, “NØW—WE— PISSED— ØN—PAVEMENT—WEEDS, — WEEDS, — WEEDS, — WEEDS.” I am not real sure what the point of saying “weeds” four times is?

I really liked this even though I’m not fully understanding it, yet.
