No Middle Ground

          Three days before Clinton's graduation, the We Love Bankruptcy crew (there are only 3 of us) reunited at Namwan's for lunch and a Hannibal marathon. Well, it was originally planned out simple like that, but we ended up consuming hours by watching funny stuff on Youtube and our now favorite Pirate Radio too. It should also be mentioned that we spent a significant amount of the day indulging on imported chocolates, cuddling with Namwan's stuffed animal friends, and talking about our feels and the future - wow that sounded so girly... But okay, perhaps that was a very one sided description. We were watching Hannibal after all. And to clarify, we greatly admire the title character, a disturbing fact which led us to Googling "psychopathic traits" after there were no more episodes left to watch. In case you are curious, here's what we looked at:



If my memory serves me correct, we also crossed-referenced psychopathic traits with "professions". It was found then that I am most likely to be a psychopath out of the three of us... go figure. As with the stuffed animals, I have to note how misplaced they seemed in a room with metal band posters on the walls, screamo/rock music as ambiance, and three kids who look very questionable if seen outside together. And it so happens that Namwan, besides being into rock concerts, piercings, and shaving her head, is really talented at making cupcakes and has a stockpile of exotic chocolates. It also so happens that Clinton and I are talented at appreciating cupcakes and chocolates...
           The simple point I am trying to communicate is that the three of us are just very strange individuals. But that makes us so compatible as friends. We are actually very different if you take a step back and examine. We don't have the exact same music tastes. We each have a different preference for cute animal characters. We excel at different things. We look nothing like each other. We don't all have the same chances of being a psychopath - ha! But it's the commonality of being quirky and not what society expects that brings us together to celebrate cannibalistic entertainment, soft plush toys, and no middle ground. 
And now I hand it over to photography:

This is what I call Yin Yang.
Three's a party.

No party is complete without a Totoro, right?
