Last night I was watching television and there was a new show by Dimitri Martin and he had several skits with striking relevancy to our class. He performed one skit satirically dressed as a rapper and put on the most pathetic display of flighting I have ever seen and he talked about cliches in another skit and he said "If I went back in time and said cliches I would be original" and I laughed because he's right.
As I write this I realize how difficult it is to stay in parataxis. I guess I have been in the habit of subordinating and diversifying my word choice for too long. It was interesting to see how connected Dimitri Martin's comedy is to the oral tradition and the content of our class.
