While this may make perfect, almost transcendant sense to someone familiar with the jargon of pool, and its very specific concepts, I gotta tell you...
I've nary a clue what you're speaking about.
If you must use metaphors, please remember the crowd. FANTASTIC FOUR allusions and references to DEADPOOL or WOLVERINE might get the heads out there in internet-ville nodding more vigorously than billiards.
but you've got masturbation in there. That's a start.
: WHY NOT the Buddy Christ as a pool hustler?
: ok, Dogma's theme of ---'ideas'-are-better-than-'beliefs'---
: because they're more 'flexible' is not bad, ... but it's all 'in the head' stuff, flat-space rationality, ... like on a printed circuit board in a computer.
: why not an upgrade to realworld 'inner-outer' space like in 'eightball'?
: ... where ---'making shape'-is-better-than-'making good shots'---
: because it`s 'shape' that determines evolution and 'shots' are just tools
: for opening up the opportunity space everyone needs to keep evolving.
: the cool eightball player knows that if you put 'good shot-making' first
: you screw up 'shape' and everything gets fucked up, ... you
: 'do it to yourself' - a.k.a. 'masturbation' in pool lingo.
: since the 'Buddy Christ' was not into putting 'good shot-making' first
: but was instead into 'making shape' to open up space for mary magdalen
: and the whole crew, why not the 'Buddy Christ' as a pool hustler
: who comes up against masturbating pros who can't stop themselves
: from 'pulling off good shots' and snookering everyone in the process?
