laughing my ass off at how much this sucks
I... have you seen the news about Francis Ford Coppola's new film Megalopolis, or rather more specifically, EXACTLY what it's based on?!? I'm singularly going insane over here, please go read the summary/character list on Wikipedia for a good laugh/absolute blindside.
cato the younger hooting and hollering like a chimpanzee that just did a line of coke at the thought of somebody named "caesar catiline"
And Giancarlo Esposito as "corrupt Mayor Franklyn Cicero." Sadly no Cato the Younger equivalent I can find, but look at these character names:
Aubrey Plaza as Wow Platinum Shia LaBeouf as Clodio Pulcher Jon Voight as Hamilton Crassus III
I'm so used to Roman naming conventions that when I saw this I wondered what the heck had happened between Caesar and Cicero in this timeline.

I’m about to expose the men. Whenever you ask a man’s height, he’ll add an inch. So if he’s 6 foot, he’ll say he’s 6’1 and if he’s 6’2, he’ll say he’s 6’3.
Not me though. I subtract 4. I say I’m 5’9. Especially when there’s other men in the room. And then I just watch them panic. Not only have you exposed his lie, but now he thinks he’s 5’3.
What I do is not a crime, but it should be.

what’s been moving you recently?

how fortunate you are to have a cat with so many fine potatoes
"I sense the world might be more dreamlike, metaphorical, and poetic than we currently believe[...]. I wouldn't be surprised if poetry--poetry in the broadest sense, in the sense of a world filled with metaphor, rhyme, and recurring patterns, shapes, and designs--is how the world works. The world isn't logical, it's a song."
