Phil Ladjanski Interview




How come more people don't call you skinny anymore?

I'm all grown up. That was when I was a little kid.

You're still anorexic.

Man, I eat.

I'm not saying you don't eat. I'm just saying you're anorexic, like a 12-year-old girl.

That's just how I am, but definitely not like a 12-year-old girl.

You remember that time on the train in Japan, and I saw that guy that had worse acne than you, and I was like, "Hey, that guy has worse acne than you?"

Yeah, but it's all gone now.

How'd you get rid of it?

Soap and water, man.

You started washing your face finally?

Yeah. I'm not a hippie.

You smoke enough weed to be a hippie.

Yeah, still doesn't mean I'm a hippie

What was the highlight of your time in Japan?

Hanging out with Yoshi Karaoke with the models.

What's the deal with Yoshi?

That was my homie that showed us around, man.

He got you high?

Yeah.

How was the all-night pot party?

Oh, it was all right.

I heard there was no all-night pot party.

Man, I don't even know what you're talking about.

I heard you guys were invited to the all-night pot party, and there wasn't even an all-night pot party.

Its 'cause of you, man. Starting some kind of bullshit story, getting me to fuckin' believe it. You almost had me, man, you almost had me. It was a good one.

Were you bummed when you found out there wasn't an all-night pot party?

I was just more stoked on the models.

Did you have any luck with any of the models?

No, she dissed me.

What's interesting about you?

Me? Shit, I don't know. Nothing.

Are you a high-school dropout?

No. I went to high school, man. I graduated. I got a real diploma.

You must be smart.

Yeah, I'm a fucking rocket scientist.

Do you think you could build me a rocket?

No.

Do you think you could smoke a rocket?

Fuck that shit. I ain't no fag.

No, I meant like smoke a rocket.

I don't know. The fumes off the rocket when it goes up in the air, oh, shit, I don't know. man.

Dude, that shit would get you high.

Fuck that shit. It'd make you retarded.

Could you smoke weed out of an asteroid?

An asteroid? I don't know, maybe.

Like if you put a carb on one side?

Who knows? I wouldn't personally, but I'm sure there's people that have.

People have smoked out of an asteroid?

Yeah, trying to get Close to the stars. Higher, higher than space. They'll probably think they're gonna get higher and go to space and shit.

You got to start smoking out of asteroids now.

Yeah, right. Where the hell would I find an asteroid?

In space.

Not near me, man.

They don't got asteroids by Philly?

I haven't seen any lately.

Dude, there's got to be at least one asteroid floating around over there.

One? There ain't no space museums out this way.

Have you ever even looked for an asteroid?

No.

Well, then, how are you ever gonna find one?

Don't you have to see them in the sky first? I

I don't know, you tell me.

I don't know, man. I'm not an astronaut

I thought you were a rocket scientist?

Yeah.

You're not serious about getting high, dude.

Fly me to the moon, shit.

Did Dudelander try to make out with you at all?

No.

What would you have done if he did?

Probably knock his lights out. I ain't down with that kind of shit.

You seem boring and stoned, so you should just tell me your sponsors.

Hollywood skateboards, Hurley, Brown Beanies, Rockstar Bearings. There's people that help me out, Montessi, West Side Crew. Kris is hooking me up with some 88s and my shop, Exclusive.
