“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. As for me . . . I’m definitely a shouter. I like to break things. Those bridges you see on the news? The ones catching fire? That’s me. That viral video of a masked man smashing up the produce right there in the store with a giant hammer? Me. That towering, hairy gargantua who rubbled the financial district and swatted drones and attack helicopters out of the air? It’s all me. I like to get big. I like to make a mess. I like to be deep in it, in that moment, and in no way am I ever sweating the costs or the logic. And there’s no politics or manifesto. Not with me. I would cite Gallagher as a major influence along with the Three Stooges and Plastic Dump Truck Thoreau, of course, as I have no higher aspiration than to make tracks through custard pies as the city entire burns.”
