He is a talented writer who can make the mundane act of waiting in a car far more exciting than a car chase. But his formula needs some work. The formula is this: Basil is in a place he doesn't feel like being, girl with him says something stupid, Basil tells us his initial reaction while keeping to himself and us readers (breaking the 4th wall) what he'd like to tell the girl, girl say something even stupider, which becomes the punchline, and The End. He's really good at triangulating a larger reality from his miserable circumstances and those of the girls. For instance, girls posing as Asians or Latin Americans or whatever to satisfy guys with specific ideas of what the sexual side of femininity is supposed to be. The problem is he doesn't do it enough but is good enough to pull it off if he wants to. His rant reflects larger currents of immigration and diverse sexual preferences; it's just 2 sentences to tie in demographic changes with sitting in a car with a couple of hookers.<br /><br />As a drunken snotball junkie, I would like to see the formula altered to tie his microcosms into a larger, possibly even objective reality. Cheers Basil, and Cheers my old pal Jerky!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
