I have insomnia. I decided to do some late night walking and I got robbed and beaten up. The whole experience made me feel even worse so now I can't sleep and I'm scared of going out.

this dude lives in the 1930s, getting beaten up by dudes called Hot Rod and Slick Andy
>How about dope? Grass. Hash. Coke. Mescaline. Downers. Nebutol. Tuonal. Chloral Hydrates? How about any Uppers? Amphetamines. Crystal meth. I can get ya crystal meth. Nitrous oxide. How about that? How about a Cadillac? I get ya a brand new Cadillac with the pink slip for two grand.
Jesus man are you going to shut the frick up and sell me these pieces or what?
Idiot.
Never walk around at night unless you’re open/conceal carrying.
Actually, that’s the best thing about walking around at night. If anyone fricks with you, you’re well within your rights to shoot them.
>pussy
Who was that singer who smugly posed for photos and called everyone who used guns pussies, then he was promptly robbed at gunpoint and left his best friend to get shot by Black folk
I actually don't have to say anything, because you getting robbed and killed at night for walking around alone and unarmed in the middle of the night will prove my point for me.
>Your friend gets blown the frick out >you run away like a b***h >Guns are for pussies! >Goes on leftist rant about how America sucks and doesn't move to some foreign shithole

The porn theater is all he knows and betrays his doomerism/lack of personhood/however you want to describe Bickle's main issue through it
Unconscious self-sabotage. Poor Travis was never the kind of man that could be mentally stable enough to keep a woman in a relationship. Somehow, he knew that.

What happened to the world? Have people really become dumb?
It's not so recent a phenomenon
As some boomer in a youtube comments section put it, "Every man goes through a period like this at least once in his life"
Yeah, and that's what this is about. It's a parody of revenge movies where a man picks up a gun and goes after the bad guys because "the world is unfair and cruel." Travis is literally that fat boy who takes pictures of himself with a samurai sword and signs it "now you're gonna pay." He's the moron who takes a girl to a porno movie theater on a date, buys her a music record she already has, and then screams hysterically at her work. And then shaves his head under a Mohawk and goes out to kill "bad guys" because he's the only one he thinks can make the world a fair place. There was no Jodie Foster. Well, there was - when she got in his car and got out and they gave him 20 bucks. Everything that happened after that was purely in Travis' head. That's why he disappears at the end, because the dream is over.

Do you live in a city?
Next to it. Some times youths will drive to the nearby city to for targets then tail it back.

pussy
"call him a pussy", the last act of a desperate man

You could just say that you’re a coward too scared to go out at night

Must suck to live in a third world shit hole
Henry Rollins, but he said "guns are for pussy" after the home invasion

frick Rollins. Biggest pussy in punk
Pussies are two or three joggers who will rob you and cut your throat Moshe.
Do Americans really?
Wrong movie
I pistolwhipped a homeless person who startled me on a night walk once.
Grindhouse theaters in general were a place for bums and junkies to sleep in, same as any other open all night not super regulated establishment
Yeah like your mom's house.
It has to be a less trafficked area.
A Black person lives there.
They show porno in theaters?
What's crazy is how ubiquitous porn theaters were to just bring it up so casually and matter-of-fact
It was based, I wish they still existed so I could go there in a dress and suck a bunch of dicks whenever I felt like it
ok but fr, why'd he think it was OK to take a girl on a date to PORNO theatre.. HELLO??????

and why did the girl agree to even go there?
Unconscious self-sabotage. Poor Travis was never the kind of man that could be mentally stable enough to keep a woman in a relationship. Somehow, he knew that.
A girl of his same social class would have probably been fine with it. She was just out of his league and he had no clue.

>it was all a dream
nah
how were marty and schrader so ahead of their time bros
Extra protein from all the wieners they smoked
They weren't
Did boomers really have to go to a dingy theater and sit next to a bunch of fat ugly weirdos when they wanted to watch porno and jack off
Yes, porn used to bring a community together.
They used to jack off primarily to imagination and their recollection of sexual experiences.
You weren't allowed to actually pull your peewee out in the theatre though.
