This thread is shallow and pedantic
just like your cum (´・ω・`)
what's the difference between Lynchian and Surreal?

I forget who the quote is attributed to, but I've heard Lynchian humour described as a man beating his wife to death while explaining to her that she cooked his meal wrong, or something to that effect.
whoever said that should kill themselves as should people who like David Lynch films.

Author David Foster Wallace once wrote an essay about David Lynch. In it, he coined the term "Lynchian". Wallace described this tone as "the unbelievably grotesque existing in a kind of union with the unbelievably banal."
He gave an example of a 1950s husband beating his wife to death because she bought him the wrong brand of peanut butter. "I told you to buy the JIF," he'd say as he's clobbering her to death. This, he claims, qualifies as almost perfectly Lynchian.
This episode of the Tyra Banks show enters into Lynchian territory. An average daytime talk show, with an audience primarily consisting of middle aged women. Yet in this instance director Quentin Tarantino, is forced to confront his foot fetish on national television in front of the audience, in some kind of sick game.
This experience appears humiliating and grotesque enough but this nightmarish situation is only made worse by Quentin's face contorting into a childlike expression before he farts and shits in his pants.
Despite the subtext and the show producers' hopes to normalize this horror, the average person is totally disgusted. Nevertheless, the viewer is fascinated. We're drawn further into this. The sheer naked horror of what they're doing to him, the blase quality with which they're doing it, it creates this brutal paradox that almost rapes the viewer's basic sense of what is decent.
