Clueless is Life: A Poetic Encounter with Hollywood Truth

DISCLAIMER: I take no credit for the text. It comes from the movie, Clueless (c) 1995

This is an add-on to the recent post I made about extending aid to Haitians:
_______________________________________________

So like, right now for example.
The Haiti-ans need to come to America.

But some people are all,
"What about the strain on our resources?"

Well it's like when I had this garden party for
my father's birthday, right? I put
R.S.V.P. 'cause it was a sit-down dinner.
But some people came that
like did not R.S.V.P.

I was like totally buggin'.

I had to haul ass to the kitchen,
redistribute the food,
and
squish in extra place settings.

But
by the end of the day it was,
like,
the more the merrier.

And so
if the government could just
get to the kitchen,
rearrange some things,
we could certainly party with the Haiti-ans.

And
in conclusion
may I please remind you
it does not say R.S.V.P. on
the Statue of Liberty.


Thank you very much.
