- jordin: do you know anything about classic hollywood? like, the 20's and 30's?
- emily: um, a little?
- jordin: i want to get into it, try it on for size, but i don't know where to begin
- jordin: and getting to know anything i know is just like...you watch one thing and it inspires or intrigues you in some way, and you just branch out from there. like, i remember when i was 12, i did a report on queen elizabeth I and she was so interesting, i learned everything about her, which turned into learning everything about the elizabethan age in general, which turned into studying henry VIII and all his crazy shit
- jordin: and to this day, i'm still totally fascinated by all of that
- jordin: but now, when i find myself interested in something, i get really overwhelmed by how much there is to know about it
- jordin: and it makes me nervous and then i don't want to know about it anymore
- jordin: which is why i haven't learned anything new in like, 4 years
- emily: oh man i know exactly what you mean
- jordin: there's just so much to know about everything!
- emily: actually, i get nervous because i feel the more i know about one thing, the less i know about so many other things
- emily: if that makes sense
- emily: but yea i get you
- jordin: that totally makes sense
- emily: theres so much to everything, everything has its own private universe
- emily: craziness
- jordin: the less time you have to devote to knowing other things
- jordin: something that you might like more
- emily: yes
- jordin: what if you spend your time learning something new, and you totally miss out on this other thing that was way more interesting
- emily: precisely
- emily: its so unnverving!
- jordin: but it's all so stupid. i mean, knowledge is knowledge and it's all so fucking cool the things we don't know about. which is really easy to say, i'm real good at reason in theory
- jordin: but when it comes to practice, i'm a big ol' puss
- emily: youre totally right
- emily: its so fun to just explore random shit
- emily: and everything connects
- jordin: we need to start a club or something. knowledge club!
- jordin: where everyone just tells everyone shit
- jordin: which i guess is just a friendship
- emily: hahahahaha
- jordin: but if we call it a club we could make t-shirts
- emily: hahaha
- emily: friendship club
- emily: "dropping knowledge on each other because we're tight"
