this film by Kevin MacDonald (Last King of Scotland), about the iconic Robert Nesta Marley who died of cancer in 1981 at age 36, is set not only provide a fresh insight into the life of Marley through those he was close to, but also simultaneously up marijuana sales during the release weeks – i mean really, who goes to watch the family-endorsed Marley documentary without toking on a joint and blessing Jah Rastafari The Most Haile Selassie before hand?

this is Slavoj Žižek, he is a Slovenian philosopher and cultural critic, and he hates tulips.
if you were unable to understand him, here is a transcription:
‘My relationship towards tulips is inherently Lynchian. I think they are disgusting. Just imagine. Aren’t these some kind of, how do you call it, vagina dentata, dental vaginas threatening to swallow you? I think that flowers are something inherently disgusting.
