As you get older they teach you how to "deconstruct" things in school. We are taught to deconstruct beliefs, ideas, prejudices, etc. For me, deconstruction became a terrible habit that still rages out of control. For instance, I was just analyzing the Never Ending Story the other day while showering and I realized two things. The first is that the film is at once a critique and celebration of Nietzsche's "Will to Power" (a critique of the bastardization of Nietzsche's message that permeates the popular lexicon, I should say). Secondly, I realized that Falcor the Luck Dragon is a, ahem, "sexual subversive".
