Konietzko Flash | kōˈnētskō fllaSH | noun
a psychological event, acute in its onset and accompanied by intense anger, in which a person realizes that the woman they dated back in 1994 was the one who stole their now-out-of-print KMFDM albums, goddammit; typically followed by an urge to drive to South Carolina and get the CDs back
“What’s up with Michael?”
“Oh, he’s having a Konietzko Flash.”
“Is… is that why he’s stealing my car?”
Professor is the most recent, and possibly last, post on your personal blog about your wish for cds that you had almost 30 years ago? This is semi-rhetorical, the question is in reference to whether or not you will post again in the future, for your students viewing pleasure.
Well, Student, it’s hard to imagine a follow-up to this post that wouldn’t involve entanglements with law enforcement, which I try to avoid. Sometimes you just have to be the bigger person and let go of your out-of-print-for-30-years-because-they-heavily-involved-multiple-uncleared-samples-scuzzy-industrial-90s-band CDs. We all face precisely this problem at some point in our lives. (And you can’t even stream them, because of the aforementioned clearance issues!)
There will be future posts, I’m sure. I’m just too overwhelmed (and too lazy when I’m not) to do so on a regular schedule.
