The following (extremely drawn out) clips are Kevin Smith's answer to the simple question, "How do you deal with writer's block?" I was looking for some answers since I'm dealing with that issue right now, but what I found instead was a revelation and yet another opportunity to laugh at myself...
These clips are what made me realize I must be an actual writer because apparently, when you ask a creative writer a simple and direct question like "What time is it?" they can't bring themselves to just reply with the time. Instead... they will passionately explain to you... how to build a clock.
That's me all day... just ask anybody who has endured the time-intensive experience of listening to one of my stories... and by "stories" I mean my extremely complicated answers to very simple questions.

What was the question again? Ah Hell, screw writing... I'm goin to bed... Thanks Kevin! You didn't give me any answers, but I won't have any problem falling asleep while waiting for them now!
