Greetings my friend.
We are all interested in the future, for that is where
you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives.
And remember my friends,
future vents such as these will affect you in the future.
?? Future events such as these will affect you in the future??
No ***.
You are interested in the unknown,
The mysterious,
The unexplainable.
That is why you are here.
And now for the first time, we are bringing to you,
the full story of what happened on that fateful day.
We are giving you all the evidence, based only on the secret testimony
of the miserable souls, who survived this terrifying ordeal.
The incidents,
The places,
My friend, we can not keep this a secret any longer.
Let us punish the guilty, let us reward the innocent,
My friend. Can your heart stand the shocking
facts about grave robbers from outer space?!
Whoa wh woah. Grave robbers from outer space?? ...That's not what I wrote
Music plays
♪♫♪
(Off camera) I couldn't edit to save my life.
Not that that's a likely scenario,
how many psychos do you know who say, you, you edit this good or I kill you.
Doesn't happen...very often anyway
Psychos always have like these strange accents for some reason.
Or is it just in my mind that they talk like that?
Somebody told me, you can't be all things to all people, so I'm not gonna try.
So I'm basing this on questions that I've been
asked before, or questions that I've asked myself.
And uh, I'm just gonna talk to the camera, - cheaper than a shrink.
I do things that amuse me, so that's really important
And uh, even more important, having said "I can't be all things to all people"
Somebody very important to me said
Just be happy with yourself
Maybe in the process, I'll probably find what I'm looking for
So, There will be some stuff in here that's pretty personal
Kind of like riding a bike naked in broad daylight through a city.
Music plays
So, as it turns out it was a big sausage fest.
A couple of hot girls.
But overall, yeah, there was a lot of *** exposed ***.
So I met a girl
after that. Uh. A few months later yeah.
And uh, So I told her about it and she got *** mad
She got mad, she couldn't believe it
like, "You rode your bike naked through the city?"
Yeah. It's like a yearly event.
And she was pissed. I mean pissed.
So, I tried to console her, however, she was inconsolable.
So we hung out,
That's this girl right here.
And, we hung out, we met at Allen gardens
and uh, met again, hung out again the day after and made out.
I mean seriously *** made out
And then so this went on for like a month
Just really really good make out sessions
I mean we went to see a movie
at the Rainbow cinema, I *** forget the movie
Like I mean this girl sucked my tongue.
I forget what the movie was.
Some little girl? assassin? I don't know.
I don't even remember the name of it
You know, who could pay attention to the movie? this girl was hot.
And the last make out session was really good.
I mean, the day before she was asking me my favorite color and I said it was purple
so she wore a little short skirt with little purple *** and a purple bra
So, we're making out there in the parking- lot
at "Food basics", which was *** fantastic.
But yeah yeah, anyway, so no, she didn't go out with me.
((Music plays))♫
Oh yeah, don't go to this town.
On February..what was it? On February 17th
I left to you know.. 500 bucks that should have gone on my credit card
So, spent 500 bucks to go to bum-*** town of Tillsonburg Ontario
Like I said. Don't go to this town.
It was a *** disaster.
Like uh,
So my birthday came around on February 26
So I'm there, you know.
I did a lot of work on this girl's computer
I couldn't tell you the amount of hours
So on my birthday,we're doing the same stuff
And I showed her how to rip cds and all this stuff
She was sitting at her computer, and I'm sitting there having a smoke
And, I was afraid that she would double up
That she was gonna double up on a certain song.
And that song was, "Don't turn around".
So then I could hear her, like mumbling just under her breath.
Like almost incoherently so I couldn't hear it
And then she starts saying
"Oh it's a waste of time" and everything. I just told her to look
so we don't double up.
And within two minutes she started, she just basically emasculated me.
So, a couple of the choice things she said were.
The people who act smart are always the dumbest people around
which, I don't know
I never acted smart, I was just myself I was a complete *** sweetheart.
the whole time I was there, right.
And then, what's the other one?
oh yes that's right. "I hope you rot in hell"
She actually said this
Yeah, yeah, you remember (name beeped)
Just a complete cluster ***.
So, the night of my birthday
I ended up spending it in a hotel room in Tillsonburg
And then had to catch a cab to Ingersol the next day
so I could catch a bus back to Toronto
Like people may say, but you can't really talk bad about her.
No, I've met her, she's a ***.
No doubt I would love to just go on and talk about the whole situation
and just just rip her a new one
but she would no doubt find uses for that
A lot of people like to say that I've accomplished a lot
but that's just not true.
I've accomplished nothing
in 35 years.
So I wrote a screenplay
did not get sold.
everybody tells me "you're so great" everything about you is perfect.
It's really hard
It's really hard to sit back and look at the last 35 years
Since birth I mean.
Just nothing, like I have nothing
I mean I sit out here cause I like it
you know, all that get one with nature ***.
Well, 30 feet from a paved bike path.
But no, like, I sit out here cause it's quiet I like it.
I just think about
I think about a lot of things.
I think about my strange fascination with death
I've always been fascinated with it. Ever since I was little
I've been to so many funerals.
So many
My best friend is dead,
And it happened in a way where I found out through.. yeah some friend.
I found out through a third party.
That he had died of cancer.
I didn't even know about it.
That was my best friend.
In my childhood I had one friend, yeah, Fabio Rossini
Yeah, absolutely my best friend.
I mean, I remember, I remember every time we would drive down dominion drive
in my dad's truck, he'd be outside and he'd just give us a little wave there
when he saw the truck go by
And, we didn't spend a lot of time together
later on, in the upper teenage years
'Cause sometimes, you know you drift apart.
No like, I miss him, I miss him a lot.
Like I live in Toronto now
I get back to Sudbury you know, a couple times a year.
And, so whenever it happens when we're driving and we pass by,
Fabio Rossini's house
And uh,
Well, Fabio will never be out there to give me a wave ever again.
You start to regret
You start to regret drifting apart and just
You know, going with different people
I think had I stayed really close with him I think I would've
accomplished quite a few things that I wanted to
like he was the only one who really, who really pushed me to do, to do a lot.
But, instead I stayed friends with all the
all the wrong people.
I didn't have a lot of friends, but I stayed friends with those people
instead of Fabio,
It just completely
It was a soul sucking experience.
Had I left when I was 20 years old
and just gone my own way
and just became like everybody else
like a real *** trendy
oh we're into all the new fads and everything
and just you know, completely narcissistic.
and whatever,
well I'd probably be a millionaire. Seriously.
Had I left home and left all those people.
who just.. I gave so much of my time
For nothing.
Like not a single one of them
Not a single one of them was ever interested in what I wanted to do
and what I wanted to accomplish
It's pretty sad
Like looking back
Yeah, I miss Fabio though.
There's a lot of things I wanted to do.
And,
always instead of doing what I wanted to do
I did what other people wanted to do
So I
I basically gave up my time
in pursuit of their interests
When you look at me, you're looking at a person who gave up on their dreams.
And who has nothing to show for it now.
I had a friend
For 25 years.
a little bit over 25 years actually.
I haven't spoken to him since October of last year
That would be 2011.
And,so 25 years, he meets a girl
and then it's like incommunicado
doesn't talk to me or nothing.
And this is the one. Like I gave
all of my time
like 25 years of my life
in a one sided friendship
No, it's hard.
Sometimes you just wanna run away.
I'm sure I'm not the only one
Like I was saying. I have a strange obsession with death.
not obsession, but just an interest
A very strange interest in death.
Like eve as I record this,
it's like we live in a world
where we have, you know
killing people on a mass scale
is what we accomplished before we reached common sense.
Before we ever learned to
you know, just respect
respect each other and treat each other well,
help each other
Pretty sick
Sometimes I want to leave
Sometimes I want to leave
The thought occurs to me once in a while.
You know once in a while
You just lay back and say,
what the ***?
Like why am I even here
But then I wont because there's just so much left to do
there's just so much left to do.
I don't think about it long.
I think it's interesting, like I blame myself,
I don't blame anybody else
'Cause it's my fault. I completely let it happen.
And the old adage,
if you want to change something, change it yourself.
So I'm guilty.
I'm guilty for not doing it.
It's not interesting. I don't live every day to its fullest
like, you know,one person has said.
And you know, I really love that girl, but she's wrong
like she's *** wrong.
And, as much as
As much as I would have loved to be with her,
I made a choice
I made that choice.
And, there's one thing that would have destroyed us,
and that was the fact that she loved god, and I do not.
It was always very easy for her to say that,
"Oh well you're angry at god"
Well, no, if there is a god I'd be *** mad
but that's not it.
Just wrong.
It would have destroyed us eventually
And she knows it too.
I don't like admitting that either, but it's the truth.
She's a fantastic girl
It's just it would have been a *** disaster.
And, you know, something like that,
I don't know where I would go from there.
I don't want to hurt anybody.
Like the one girl I was talking about earlier,
really believes in god ,I mean.
One time,
Like one time I said
I think it was taken out of context
but I said
Creative people.
Like art, and music and everything
Art!
This is what makes me see god.
Like it was taken out of context.
I mean I'd like to believe
I would like to believe that we as people imitate, or reflect the creativity of god
but that's just not true.
I'm tired of hearing how special I am.
Cause I'm not
I'm not.
People have been blowing smoke up my for so long,
that, it's like,
How could I live up to this expectation?
Like, everything I do that they say I'm great at
Everything I do, it's never gonna
like in my mind,
it's never gonna meet that expectation
of what they think
it should be
So it's like
It's put me at a severe disadvantage,
Just a major *** disadvantage
A pedestal so high
if I fell off it, I'd break every single *** bone in my body.
I can't live up to people's expectations,
of me.
((Creepy music plays)) ♫
So here I am sitting with my nephew who is a skull creature, skull vampire
And we are about to finish our game of battle,
which we started last night and it was
taking so long, he had to go to bed.
So we're gonna finish this game, it's a very emotional game
(J) I really don't want this to take all night.
There have been fights, arguments, words exchanged
Let's do this!
That's yours.
(J) That one's yours.
That's mine.
Double aces
That's his
That's mine
King, oh look at that.
Another king.
((J)) My cards are going to waste.
((J)) Please Ge ta 6,5,4,3,2
((J)) God!
((J)) Oh I have the lowest card
Oh that's nice.
Thank you, thank you kindly for the two
oh look ace, nothing beats that
No battle right now
That's a jack
You're not allowed to shuffle your cards.
You can't do that, that's cheating
I don't make viral videos
And, in fact I'd feel pretty lucky if
20 people watched this.
And even luckier if out of those 20 people,
10 of them made it through to the end.
Watched every single minute of it,
however long this is gonna be.
this project here I started in early 2009.
It was for something completely different
And I just figured
you know, resurrect it
so-to-speak
and uh,
Just make it into something completely different.
I'm uh,
Anybody who knows me knows that I write a lot in my journal
and,
you know, lots of good stuff in there, but I figured
why not talk to the camera and fill this stuff with a bunch of video logs, right
I thought that would be interesting.
And mix it with,
Some old footage that I recorded and that nobody saw.
Never been posted, never been seen.
So I thought that would be cool
Above all, this is about truth. about discovery too
Truth being the most important thing. Truth about myself.
Whether it's universal truth or very deep personal truth
It's about me
I still don't think that I could live up to the expectations people who
you know, people who say they really believe in me
but it's my job to at least try.
So just to give them little, little pieces of me here and there
But,
Truth is everything
I have been known at times to lie by omission,
which has made me feel like an unwashed ***
but,
but I don't really do that anymore.
I speak my mind
I speak my mind no matter what.
At great disadvantage to myself, at times
The truth is very hard sometimes
But,
Above all things, like no, it's truth
That's what's most important.
Because I want to tell the truth, and then I want to leave this world.
That one's for you, Alex
