Tuesday, August 5, 2003 at 9:44 PM Here's another transcript. Yay-fucken'-a! In this one, Adam was talking about city names personify (or un-personify) the actual city and he started by comparing the City of Commerce to the City of Industry, which I assume are real cities. Anyway, here we go! I WONDER IF THE CITY OF INDUSTRY AND THE CITY OF COMMERCE GET, UH, IF THERE'S SOME KIND OF GRUDGE-MATCH BETWEEN THOSE 2 CITIES. "WE HAVE THE DUMBEST NAME FOR A CITY," "NO, WE DO!" "I MOVE THAT WE CHANGE OUR NAME FROM THE CITY OF INDUSTRY TO THE CITY OF PEOPLE WHO WORK," "OH, YEAH? WE'LL CALL OURSELVES THE CITY OF STUFF." IMAGINE LIVING IN THE CITY OF INDUSTRY. DO THEY LET PEOPLE LIVE THERE? SEEMS TO GO AGAINST THE NAME. "WELL, I GUESS WE CAN LET YOU LIVE HERE IF YOU OPEN SOME KIND OF SWEATSHOP OR SOMETHING IN YOUR HOUSE." YOU KNOW WHAT'S WEIRD, RIGHT NEXT TO THAT THEY OPENED A CITY WITH A NAME THAT REALLY UN-DID THE WHOLE THING, "HAWAIIN GARDENS". YOU KNOW, I'VE REALIZED SOMETHING, THE NAMES TELL NOTHING OF THE CITY. FOR INSTANCE, THE NICER CITIES, "STUDIO CITY", "ENCINO", "ENCINO" DOESN'T SOUND ANY BETTER THAN "HAWAIIN GARDENS." AND BECAUSE I'M IN THE ENTERTAINMENT FIELD I'M CONSTANTLY DEALING WITH PEOPLE THAT ARE MOVING OUT HERE FROM CHICAGO, NEW YORK, PITSBURG, AND CLEVELAND, AND THEY'RE LOOKING FOR PLACES TO LIVE AND THEY'RE LIKE, "YEAH, I'VE SEEN THIS NICE PLACE, IT'S OUT IN A PLACE CALLED SUNLET," AND I'M LIKE, "NO, NO, NO, DON'T GO TO SUNLET," SUNLET SOUNDS GREAT, DOESN'T IT? HAWAIIN GARDENS, GREAT! THESE PLACES, GARDENA, GREAT! IT SOUNDS GREAT. NO, THEY DON'T KNOW, SO I'M THINKING THERE SHOULD BE A LITTLE TRUTH IN THIS, YOU KNOW, NAME THE PLACE CRAPVILLE. CHANGE THE NAME OF HAWAIIN GARDENS TO CRAP GARDENS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT SO PEOPLE WOULD IMMEDIATELY DETTERRENT BECAUSE THESE POOR PEOPLE ARE MOVING INTO TOWN, THEY'RE TALKING TO GUYS, "WHOOA! $400 BUCKS FOR A 3-BEDROOM? I'M IN. SUNLAND? SOUNDS GREAT. NAW, I DON'T NEED TO SEE IT, I'LL SEND YOU THE DEPOSIT." THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING. I SHOULD REALLY, FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS WHEN I BECOME MAYOR - NO, KING.
