Mediocrity is a constant theme in my mind. It seems to be the same in Alexander Payne's movies: from Sideways to the lady in Paris, je T'aime. Or is it simply my own unnecessary projection? Plus, satire is the best literary form to talk about mediocrity. #a modicum of mediocrity#
A wonderful but unrealistic fairy tale. Everyone is unbelievably warm and kind and does not exist in real life. The truth is, reality sucks and is much more cruel. If the boy is born in China, he will be dumped at the sidewalk the minute his parents walk out of hospital.
