Lincoln-Mercury again attacks hipster media ethos with the kind of ferocity only the truly deperate-to-relate can muster. It's a new online miniseries, "The Neverything," which follows the lives of two brothers who live on a houseboat that's set in the middle of a field. Their only connection to the outside world is a radio, from which they get incomplete and confusing information, and a bearded milkman, who delivers their only sustenance (they also have cereal). Absurdist plot points are the rule. One scene has a brother (wearing a facial mask) soaking in a tub of cereal and milk as the other remarks, "I don't think this is yoga."
But wait! the brothers' dry-docked exploits are actually a nested narrative. They're the product of a young hipsteress and would-be author, who reveals one of them is aware his life is being written. The plot goes even more pear-shaped as her physical world appears to merge with that of the story she's writing, called (u guessed it) "The Neverything." Crap, we're hooked. (Update: Lincoln's focusing on the author's POV.)
