surrealist horror, tiger logic, martian pride
So I found this clip from Lost Highway, which I've never seen, while discussing other David Lynch works here today:

And once you've seen it, I just wanna point out one thing: A human will just stand there after an encounter like that, looking shocked and stupid.
But a Martian Tiger?
We would have kept the fucker's phone, said a cheerful "OK, then, goodbye!" and walked off with it before he could formulate a reply.
Because if you are facing down a force that you do not understand, that probably has the power to arbitrarily kill you and probably will, there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON not to attempt to harass and annoy it, if out of no other reason than scientific curiosity.
Death is eternal, but just one moment of seeing the look on that pale bastard's face will outweigh every moment of it.

@zebratron2084 I spent the entirety of that clip thinking “dude, is Death... is Death *hitting on* that guy?”

@zebratron2084 ... and when that day comes for me it’ll become painfully obvious how out of practice I am at playing chess.
