Reality is more absurd than fiction

Mark Twain said that reality is often more absurd than fiction, because fiction always has some logic, but reality can be illogical.

That's how the show interprets reality. When the last episode tells the story of the three people's childhood and tells us the cause and root of everything, according to the routine, the next step should be revealing, confessing, opening, reconciling, or worse, at least pete should disappear forever, and the others Let yourself heal and let go. However, what we waited for was that Pete pushed the door and came in, stabbed to death horace who was probably the best person in the world for him.

In fact, this show has been going this route. When the meanest old man in the world, Uncle Pete, suddenly told us that he also yearns for true love, we thought we were going to see a warm soul under a cold mask, but then Uncle Pete swallowed a gun Suicide, everyone came back from his funeral. When we felt that Pete was really not easy, so many bad things were finally over and there was a target, and then the doctor suddenly told him that probitol was discontinued, and you had to go back to the mental hospital.

Louie always tells us that life is a piece of shit, but you should be brave and resilient, but you should struggle and work, but you should love and find love. But after doing all this, life won't get better, and you'll find some hope and surprise in a piece of shit, and then get stabbed to death again.

It really makes sense, I have nothing to say, I really can't refute it at all.

Anyway, this is probably the most depressing comedy in history. After watching it, it feels like I got gastroenteritis when I was about to come to my aunt.

Louis has evolved from the ordinary Louis of "Lucky Louis" to the second-best Louis of "Louis is Not Easy", and has evolved to the literary Louis of "Hundred Years Tavern". I always feel that his future is limitless, that he will get a Palme d'Or someday.

Horace and Pete quotes

  • Tom: Just accept the fact that love is rare and it probably won't happen to you, ever.

  • Tom: You can't. That's why they call it falling in love. You can't fall on purpose.
