Preconstructed models

Stories do bother me, and that's a simple fact. They bother me because they're mostly trying to inspire you to do something just like some character, or maybe because it's supposed to teach you a lesson. Romeo and Juliet is the foundation for what we - western people - would call romantic love; the little pigs and the big bad wolf were just to make you scared of strangers (in the original version there was no concrete house, and the pigs just get eaten one by one). Nowadays the dream-industry is based on Holywood.

So when you're watching a movie, or any narrative, for my purposes, it's all about getting the story into your head so that you can copy it. But don't worry, we'll give you a good deal! Clothes, make-up, food, trips and even figures of speech. I'm not gonna bitch about the world we live in, but I think you got the point here. Well, that's not my point. What pisses me off about those silly silly fairy tales and stupid Holywood movies is the simple fact that it gets so hard to live outside those preconstructed models.
