I argued a lot of things, a lot of ways, homie.

Don't be trying to over-summarize.

Uh.

So, I'm to blame for the idiotic overanalzyers infiltrating
this conversation?

Well....uh....sorry, and shit.

So I make a point, overanalyzers come "out of the woodwork,"
proving my point, but yet somehow their coming "out of the
woodwork" does not prove my point.

Thanks, sparky.

Not quite.

You can think about a film in great depth all you want.

The problem comes when you start inventing shit that
ain't there.

^^^constitutes the direction of the overanalysis. Its
analyzed to the point where one starts to conclude
phantom things about a film. That is the case, imo,
with 'Pulp Fiction' commentaries.

I got no problem with someone studying 'Pulp Fiction'.

I'm sure there's all kinds of interesting shit that
someone could say.

I could talk, for example, about how overrated it is.

No, I actually kept the conversation logical. I was just
being a dick about it. Longo was just saying to ignore
the fact that I was being a dick, and focus on the what
I'm saying, because it makes sense.

I sense there are other reasons you're so mad at him,
but that's between y'all.
