Almost sane, totally harmless blabber of a pseudo-intellectual prone to various states of buddha high.

I’m a Charlie-Junkie

Introduction

If I were a good writer, I would have written a thousand page tome extolling the beauty of Charlie, the Unicorn. I’m so totally smitten by it. I am, I proclaim, the M.F.Hussain of this Madhuri; the Meerabai of this Krishna. Charlie, the Unicorn is truly the Sgt Peppers LHC of animated short films. There is absolutely no sane reason for this not having won an Oscar that doesn’t involve the judges not being potheads. This, my dear friend, is art of the highest standard. High Art, if you please. This is a humble attempt to take it from the confines of the dumb elite to the intellectual masses.

One: The Beginning

One innocent summer evening as I lay day dreaming of candy mountains with slightly glazed eyes and immense love for everything green and unmoving, a friend (I can never thank you enough) directed me to a youtube video that was soon to change my outlook towards everything around me. Love was not what I felt for it the first time, it was disgust. I was disgusted. I questioned the intelligence of the parents and grandparents of the people who gave this video 22 million views. I truly, madly, deeply felt ashamed of mankind. I dismissed it as another example of the ridiculousness of the elite few.

Two: The Middle-1

I do not know if Freud explained this, but I have this theory that subconsciously humans are wired to be piqued by disgust - Just like one cannot help taking a second look at an unbearably ugly face. This theory pretty much explains why I turn heads wherever I go. But there is more to it, this alone can explain what happened with respect to Charlie and me. Being disgusted by the video, I watched it a second time. Then another time, then another, then another, then another… till I fell in love with it.

Three: The Middle-2

For a while, I failed to grasp why this particular video was holding the addiction of thousands of highly intelligent people like myself. Many hours of intellectual self-pleasure did not help. My good friend whispered something conspiratorially and suddenly, everything began to make sense. It is about drugs, he said plainly, with no twinkle in his eye.

Four: The End

Whatever (il)logical reasons my friends may come up with, there is consensus that this video is high art. Art of the kind that the dumb elite has tried to keep away from us intellectual masses. To protest against this elitism and to open the doors of such elite art to the deprived masses of intelligent men (and women. chuckle), I pledge to make this video popular among the mainstream masses.

No Doubt your writing is Orgasmically Beautiful.

But Charlie gives me more than that.

All and everything a girl can imagine. YES. THAT!
