:31:34
-But you know what?
-What?

:31:35
I don't think it really matters what generation you are born into.
:31:38
Look at my parents.They were these angry, young,
May '68 people, revolting against everything.

:31:43
You know, the government, their conservative catholic backgrounds,
:31:47
I mean. I was born not
long after, and then my father went on to become this
successful architect, and they began to travel all around the world,

:31:52
where he built bridges, and towers, and stuff. I mean,
I really can't complain about anything.

:31:59
You know, they love me more than
anything in the world, and I have been raised with
all the freedom they had fought for

:32:04
And yet for me now, its another type of fight
:32:07
We still have to deal with the same old shit
:32:10
but we can't really
:32:11
know who, or y'know, what the enemy is.
:32:14
I don't really know if there is an enemy.
:32:16
You know, I mean, everybody's parents fuck them up.
:32:19
You know, rich kids' parents gave them too much,
poor kids' not enough.

:32:23
Too much attention, not enough attention.
:32:25
They either left them, or y'know, they stuck around
and taught 'em the wrong things. Y'know.

:32:28
I mean, my parents are just these two people who
didn't like each other very much

:32:32
who, uh, decided to get married and have a kid,
:32:34
and they try their best to be nice to me.
:32:37
-Did your parents divorce?
-Yeah.Finally

:32:40
They should have done it a lot sooner, but they stuck together
for a while for the well-being of my sister and I, thank you very much.

:32:46
I remember my mother once. She told me, right in front
of my father, they were having this big fight,

:32:51
that he didn't really want to have me,
:32:52
y'know, that he was really pissed off when he found
out that she was pregnant with me,

:32:56
y'know, that I was this big mistake.
:32:58
And I think that really shaped the way I think. I always saw
the world as this place where I really wasn't meant to be.
