Anybody have the rest of that quote? where he goes on about owning sofa's and stuff and yaddi yaddi yah?

google has failed me.
 
LOL, I just watched this movie literally 2 hours ago, and I know which quote you are talking about, but can't remember the rest of it.
 
Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate, so we can buy sht we don't need.

There's always that. I don't know, it's just...when you buy furniture, you tell yourself: that's it, that's the last sofa I'm gonna need. No matter what else happens, I've got that sofa problem handled. I had it all. I had a stereo that was very decent, a wardrobe that was getting very respectable. I was so close to being complete.

We're consumers. We're by-products of a lifestyle obsession. Murder, crime, poverty -- these things don't concern me. What concerns me is celebrity magazines, television with five hundred channels, some guy's name on my underwear. Rogaine, Viagra, Olestra.

The things you own, end up owing you

Sometimes you do something, and you get screwed. Sometimes it's the things you don't do, and you get screwed.
