I was sorting through some old magazines and found a Details from the mid 90's with an article about Michael Alig in it. This made me think "I wonder if he still posts shit from jail on his website?" so naturally I went to look. I decided to check out the guestbook. Lots of moronic fawning like the following:
"What's up! well me and a few friends saw the movie Party Monster and we loved it. i thought it was cute."
Cute? You thought it was cute? O.K. something is wrong with that statement. I doubt even Michael himself would feel that the story of his rather fucked up and tragic downfall represents anything near cute. I suppose the fact that Macauley Culkin played Michael and FEZ played Keoki and that short elfy dude played James (and crap isn't that Ricky from My So Called Life playing Angel) might remove any sort of association with reality and make it seem glamorous and well, cute, but this isn't a movie review. I mean clothes might be cute, people might be cute, but the REAL LIFE story of drug addict turned murderer is NOT cute, no matter how fabulous the outfits might have been.
Humans worry me.
