"7 simple rules for a life in hiding:

1) Never trust a cop in a raincoat...
2) Beware of enthusiasm and of love. Both are temporary and quick to sway.
3) When asked if you care about the world's problems, look deep in the eyes of he who asks. He will not ask you again.
4) Never give your real name.
5) If ever told to look at yourself...never look.
6) Never say or do anything the person in front of you can not understand.
7) Never create anything. It will be misinterpreted. It will chain you and follow you for the rest of your life."

- From the movie, "I'm Not There"

Life in hiding must be fun for a little while. There'll be a quietness of your preference. No need to pretend you care about certain things. No need to pick up phone calls. No need to keep up with your social circles. You have your space and time with things.

And I guess you begin to appreciate certain things. Like having people around you at times. Like actually wanting phone calls...even or especially in the middle of the night. Sometimes it feels good being wanted. Sometimes you want to keep up with your social circles. Sometimes it gets lonely brooding in your own imagination. Sometimes not having your own space is what keeps you alive.

I suppose ultimately it all depends on the person. You could be the complete version of an anti-social. But I'm sure even the most anti-social people need company at times. The point of this post? Who knows! I just haven't written in a while.

Speaking of anti-socials, there's the category who aren't actually anti-social but are pretty social and outgoing and are at every party but then in a sudden instant of time, they're sitting in the corner of a room, dwelling in their darkness or whatever you want to call it. This breed of anti-social/social people? They can be divided into the genuine and the wannabe. Just like the actual human race. Now there are sub-divisions. It's the wannabe who need to realise just how pathetic their attempts are.

"...pathetic their attempts are"... I've been watching Dark Knight way too many times. ["I show the schemers just how pathetic their attempts to control things really are" - The Joker]

Speaking of Dark Knight (I know this is way of topic...was there even a topic?): I think the one word that defines it is: revolutionary. No one has said they haven't liked it. At least, as far as I know. I'm not going to give a movie review or anything because I know that whatever I say, people would have already thought of. And it's not like people really care about my opinion. God knows why I wrote a review-type-thing for "I'm Not There".

Well, alright, I've lost the will to write anymore. This has been a strange-ish post but it's easier being pointless. Ta!
