should i write at least 10 remixes of 'shoplifting from american apparel'
the first remix would be in the style of 20-page short stories by lorrie moore (a style previously employed 2-4 years ago in bed); dialogue would be deleted, metaphors and similes would be inserted, there would be em-dashes and semi-colons
it would be the same time-frame and main events, 'reading it in conjunction with the unremixed version (or other remixes) would be an insightful, interesting, unique, and ultimately life-affirming literary experience,' i honestly feel
i could write one remix a year for the next fifteen years then kill myself, having done perhaps 'one of the worst things imaginable career-wise (non-financially)' in my view (writing fourteen sequels to a book)
a commemorative '15x shoplifting from american apparel' box set would be released to celebrate my last year of existence
people would argue about which remix they prefer, factions would develop, like 'the 4th remix gang,’ there would be drive-by shootings, on cnn (if i don't kill myself) larry king would say 'are you the new gangster rap’ with a serious facial expression
my face would look really scared
would i rather die or publish a sequel to a book, not sure
maybe the remixes could have titles things like 'shoplifting from american apparel: the 20-page lorrie moore short story style edition' to lessen sequel connotations
'shoplifting from american apparel 2' seems like maybe the worst thing that could happen to me
but i just thought 'no, that seems maybe really funny and honestly good, i could still get a girlfriend that i like a lot and eat food that i like if i published a book like that, and i honestly think it's good, maybe, like really funny and artistically pleasing even'
everything is so uncertain
how can i keep living, with things being so uncertain, seems weird, like i’m in a science fiction movie
after typing ‘in a science fiction movie’ i felt strongly that i am currently in a science fiction movie
cyril connolly said 'the more books we read, the clearer it becomes that the true fuction of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and no other task is of consequence, especially not remixes, though each remix may be another attempt at a masterpiece'
and 'the worst vice of the solitary is the worship of his food,' hehe

This post immediately reminded me that there has been an effort to create Mad Max 4, for some reason.
You should release a box set of Shoplifting From American Apparel that is just the same book 8-12 times in a box.
you'd be lenny bruce.

If one were to shoplift from American Apparel and prove it, could we get the entire collection for free?
