This week the UCB makes a victor of Nick the Kook with a topic that I sort of mocked him a bit for suggesting. After giving it some further thought on the matter and being that “Multiplicity” is one of my favorite films I decided to give the kid the green light. What did Nick suggest you ask? “What if you could take a pill and wake up the next morning with an exact copy of yourself”.
Now don’t think this was an original idea for the chap, on the contrary. In the masterpiece surf film “Campaign” by Taylor Steele this was one of the skits from the movie staring Chris Malloy. Basic plot was that Malloy went to sleep after taking a medication called “Double Up” and in the morning he woke up next to an exact copy of himself. Sounds bizarre for sure but it was actually a rather entertaining skit as far as surf films go.
For arguments sake lets say this “Double Up” drug was real and I gave it ago and woke up next to myself. I don’t really know how to feel about it. Im a pretty big asshole and barely like one of me as it is let alone two. Can you imagine the world with two Chris Lisanti’s? It’s a rather horrifying thought.
Then on further thought I realized what if this second Lisanti was subservient to me? I could make him do all the bullshit I hate in life while I could do the other bullshit I enjoy doing, like surfing. I would make his ass go to work for me; heck he would work as much as possible to support my life style. I would make him my own personal Joe Friday as well.
Or maybe we could be friends him and I. The Ultimate companion. Imagine having a wing man at the bar that was an exact copy of you. Except he would not be an exact copy of you but of me. Together we would clean up. Surfing we could control all sorts of line-ups. Shit we could probably take over the world because your definitely always going to agree with yourself.
In the end Im sure we would end up killing each other or end up in jail or killing ourselves because like I said the world is only big enough for one Chris Lisanti. A redundancy would most likely cause a huge riff in the space time continuum ending existence of life on earth as we know it. Maybe that is what is going to happen in 2012 I am going to receive an exact copy of me. People have been known to call me the anti-Christ.
Whats more dangerous The Joker or two Chris Lisantis
