julieklausner: Sophie’s F/M/K: Bill Murray, Steve Martin, Chevy Chaseby Julie Klausner & Natasha Vargas-Cooper “Kill Steve. 92nd Street Y era Steve. Eulogize him appropriately, adding your voice to the booming chorus of millions — intellectuals and comedy nerds and cultural historians alike. Some Europeans. Art critics. Wine aficionados. You look around and quit mourning for a second, and realize you feel like Martin did during “King Tut,” back in the day. “Fuck this, I’m leaving.” You go back home and you listen to “Let’s Get Small” in your bedroom instead, like you used to with your older brother. And when it ends, or the needle starts skipping and you’re ready to go to sleep, you change into a nightie, and then, for the fuck of it, call up YouTube and sing along to “Tonight You Belong to Me,” doing both parts, just to hear it a couple of times before drifting off. Maybe you do some air ukelele, or trumpet, even. I know, he was handsome. It was all beautiful. But believe me. It’s better this way.”
