One of your roommates (and a close friend that youā€™ve known for years) has a flight to catch. He has a suitcase, a duffle bag (no wheels), and a backpack. In order for him to get to the airport would you:

A) offer to drive him to the airport thatā€™s about .5 miles away (5 minute drive)

B) tell him to order an Uber since you know his work would pay for it

C) tell him to not be lazy and walk half a mile to the nearest public transportation stop, with all that luggage, and take public transit

Hey fellow fish. Iā€™m wanting some reference to an eclectic editing style that incorporates a bunch of filmic styles into the narrative. Not in a Womb Stories way, but more in an Uncommon B&Q Build a Life way. The reference Iā€™m thinking of cuts away to vintage black and white footage and even old cartoons. I just canā€™t for the life of me remember what it was for. Any suggestions would be massively appreciated!
