1、Doctor Who
Text | Guo Yujie
"Who are you?"
"I'm Doctor."
“Doctor who?！”
In the TV series, this text meme appears every issue, and it feels boring, but fortunately, at this time, Doctor must have shifted his attention and looked away - he often startled at first glance, and his attention was very continuous.
Doctor Who is a science fiction television series produced by the BBC. Doctor is an alien who, in the cosmic order, is on his planet in charge of time. During a Star Wars, the planet and all the creatures on the planet were destroyed, leaving only Doctor, so he was the only Time Lord. His skill is time travel, sitting in a blue phone booth (which is actually his central control room), and can go to any time and space. Every season, he invites someone to travel with him. The men were all girls, Earthlings, and British (not surprisingly).
Doctor's weapons are threefold: his memory—he's lived hundreds of millions of years in the universe—and his ability to manipulate information; a screwdriver that unlocks locks, electronic instruments, and so on; and he's running away in his canvas shoes. Doctor is a nonviolent pacifist.
If you want to be friends with Doctor, you naturally want to travel in time. If you have to pick it up, well... Going to the future is usually not very interesting, falling out of the phone booth, all you see are disgusting-looking aliens, and reflective machines, spaceships, inevitably fight and kill. If it is such a future, don't go. It is more interesting to go back to history, and the richness of reality is better than fantasy. In one episode, Doctor went to Agatha Christie's house. As usual, he helped Christie out of the crisis, and on his farewell, Christie stopped Doctor, hesitated, and asked: Fifty years later, will anyone still read my book?" Seeing this, I think the choreographer is really too heartwarming! I also want to send Du Fu something to eat!
2. Neuropathy in Portlandia
Text | Pale leopard
The character of Fred Armisen in the TV series Portlandia, the most anxious and calm character in human history. This is a particularly funny Portland-backed neurotic TV series, mainly engaged in self-cultural satire business, pushing real culture to a surreal degree, funny and making people feel like they are around. Unfortunately, it will be discontinued in March this year, and I have not been to Portland until now, although I have bought a portable bottle of blue bottle. The play is active in a variety of neurotic characters, the head and vocal organs are 24/7 electrified, and 24/7 are in a rusty state, for a while Fred and his friend Carrie work together in a feminist bookstore in Portland "Women and Women First", the two people are poor to death, the books are arranged in no order, every thought in the brain must be spoken compulsively, obsessed with cultural politics and organic food, brushing mobile phones, eating celery, Form a style of life that some see as contrived and others as natural, that is both mutually reassuring and torturous, that resembles the background sound of the current of life and more or less expresses the inner political exploration. Simply put, it is all kinds of sprays.
Fred once stood behind the bookstore cashier and asked a series of questions to customers: "You think I'm a man?" Why should I be a man? Does gender matter? How can I possibly know your gender? Am I a gender detective with my eyes pulled down my pants and looked at you with a magnifying glass? You may be a man now, but you could become a woman at any time. What's wrong, disagree? ”
In another episode, the character is overwhelmed by the pressure of contact, reply, and like on social networks, and Carrie goes to the "social bank" to file a social credit bankruptcy to avoid the obligation to return text messages. As a result, after a day of reading paper books and doing acupuncture in the library, she met Fred in the coffee shop as a physical living person, and he could no longer recognize her.
But that said. In reality I have never been friends with such a person. Forget it, let's recommend a TV series, VEEP, about an awkward and incompetent female vice president (who later became president for a short time), which is also very funny, and the camera is casually documentary.
3. Sun Wukong
Text | Shedin
On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, I took my parents to a completely unfamiliar town, located at the junction of Hubei and Chongqing. We drove for a day and decided to stop there and stay overnight and then rush the next day. With nothing to do in the evening, I offered to go to the movies. Sweeping around, I bought "Journey to the West". After watching the movie and walking down the street, my mother suddenly said, "In recent years, you have invited us to watch three movies, all three of which are Journey to the West." Are you so fond of Monkey King? “
If you do the math, the other two are "The Great Haunting of the Heavenly Palace" and "Three Dozen White Bone Essences". Another time, I wanted to give gifts to foreign friends. I walked around Taobao and bought an English version of the Journey to the West comic strip, which is also three dozen white bone essences. A little strange, I remember my favorite as a kid was the robot cat, and for a while I was also obsessed with Transformers. But what is Sun Wukong?
Finding a robot cat as a friend is very troublesome, which is equivalent to having one more person in the family. Transformers are not suitable for China, there must be a garage. Sun Wukong is much better, can be turned into a pen, placed on the table. I imagined that he came back from the scriptures to live in Huaguoshan, I would go to play for a few days when I had nothing to do, I wanted to chat and drink, he came with a douyun, and he could go to the South China Sea for a walk. We can sit on the couch and watch all kinds of Journey to the West movies and TV. I don't know what troubles he has, and I want to hear about it. I don't know what he thought of the king of his daughter country.
Alas, it's hard to find a friend like that.
4. Konstantin Dmitrich Levine in Anna Karenina
Text | Huang Xinyu
Many of Levin's points I disagree with, but that doesn't stop me from liking him very much. I think he is the kind of man whose virtues and qualities are higher than his thoughts. Levin has a kind of instinctive honesty, he will not influence Fengyuan at all, will not hide his emotions, will not hide his attitude, and cannot pretend to be able to pretend. As a result, it is often embarrassing and sometimes silly in social situations.
Levin had a lot of doubts and confusion. He was always torturing himself. Is that right? How can I say such a thing? Is the reform justified? What exactly is important? Life and death? What is the meaning of life? He searched endlessly, fumbling for answers. So I'm always thinking, and my thinking is always changing. I think this is also the embodiment of honesty, only very honest with yourself, always screwed.
People who are honest with themselves seem to be not many in any country in any era. Most people get by, swallow dates, or are particularly good at reconciling with themselves.
I think Levin would be the kind of friend who can talk to you openly and seriously, as long as you are also a non-pretentious person. Levin was a landlord who lived in the countryside, and if he could be friends, it would be nice to visit him every few months and stay for two days. We can have a good chat and argue after a fresh and hearty dinner.
As for the day, I hope to have the opportunity to join him and the farmers in mowing the grass. While reading the novel, I was impressed by Levin's energetic and persevering mowing work. "When the grass is cut, the weeds flutter and emit a fragrant fragrance, and they are piled high in rows and rows. Farmers who cut the grass gathered from all directions to a short row of grass, shaking the whetstone box with a sonorous sound. "Cut to the river, the old farmer wiped his sickle with wet grass, dipped the knife edge into the river to wash it, and scooped some water from the box containing the whetstone, and asked Levin to drink his "Gwass." I would also like to try "warm water with the rust smell of green ping and iron whetstone box".
5. Carson, the old butler in Downton Abbey, and Max in Mary and Marx
Text | Leaf three
I want two.
One is Carson, the old butler in Downton Abbey. I wish he was by my side when I was born, until I die, he was still by my side, neither old nor young, always... Well, that's pretty much the way it was in season three.
I'm going to be talking to him from a young age. Ice cream melted away at the age of five, first love and lost love at the age of eighteen, divorce at the age of thirty, divorce at the age of thirty-five, divorce again at the age of forty... He could listen to me without a word and smoke a pipe with me for a while. I'll learn to smoke pipes for him.
When I'm old, in the winter, we'll play chess by the fireplace. Finally, he gave me a funeral. The body was burned, and the ashes were scattered at a construction site.
I believe Carson's warmth and elegance are enough to take on this task.
In addition, I want to become a pen pal with Max in Mary and Marx. Mary and Marx is by far my favorite cartoon – for adults. I write a letter to Max every week and never drag it out. I will be honest and loyal to him and will never betray him. I hope that, at the end of his life, he can tell me, like the monologue in the movie, "You're not perfect, and so am I... I have to accept myself, my flaws and all I have, we can't choose our own flaws, they are also part of us, we have to adapt to them, yet we can choose our friends, I am glad to have chosen you. Everyone's life is a long sidewalk, some are very neat, and some are like me, with cracked banana peels and cigarette butts, and your sidewalk is like me, but there are not so many cracks in me. One day, hopefully, you and I will intersect on the sidewalks, when we can share a jar of condensed milk. You are my best friend. You are my only friend. ”
With two friends like this, life is very full.
6. Others
